It says, even the most intimate body sensations are seen in I-am-ness. Is it not aid in the sense of existence, or can existence stand alone untouched by any affirmation of this existence?
So, I am-ness is the affirmation of the sense of existence already. This is already the affirmation of your existence. When we say 'I am,' it needs no other something to exist. And those of you that enjoy some of these contemplations will notice: what is that which is there first thing in the waking state? What changed when you woke up? All these sensations are coming in, and you never experience the exact same sensation twice anyway, but the 'I am' is always the same. The being is unchanging.
If these sensations are coming and going, therefore, independent of all sensations, you are. And if this is confusing, ask yourself: 'Can I stop being now?' And don't just ask yourself; try to stop being. You will taste for yourself the independent nature, the effortless, natural existence. We are discovering a spaciousness in which all movements, all appearances come and go, but this space remains untouched.
