An Excerpt from The Power of I AM
Serving the World by Transforming Yourself
Through your conscientious practice and ability to generate presence and bring forth the same in others, you can become someone who is paying for your future in advance. You are restructuring not only yourself. You are recreating life on a new level and rebuilding the world. And life will reward you right now, in the present moment, by creating beneficial circumstances that will further your ability to generate more and more a presence and sense of I AM. Why will life back you up this way? Because you have shown that you willing to serve something greater than your own primary natural inclination toward self-interest. 

You demonstrate a willingness to function in this world the way a real man and a real woman are designed to operate. Life then can make major investments in your well-being and automatically create circumstances that will enrich you as a means to expand your field of influence.

Perhaps you have wondered why some people prosper in the human dream while others seem to suffer? I am going to show you that it is possible to put ourselves in alignment with a constant flow of beneficial events rather than a random flow of unpredictable outcomes. There is the great hidden law of material success. It may be formulated as follows: Your level of being attracts your life.

Increase Your Level of Being to Succeed in Life

When you can charge up your level of being, you will naturally draw to yourself a flow of life-empowering circumstances. Change your level of being and your dream of life changes — sometimes instantly! You become a success magnet that attracts favorable outcomes in social situations because you suddenly became highly energized. People’s attitudes change the moment yours does. They become cooperative, willing to listen, eager to help. Why? Because you are holding for them a field of supranormalcy and the power emanating from you is causing them to replicate your state! They are temporarily feeling normalized because you have seduced them from the limitations of the old, dysfunctional two-stroke operation into the experience of being a three-stroke system. To some degree, they can sense and feel their own presence and being. It may not be a full-blown perception of I AM but is manifesting in, around, and through them to a degree. And without knowing why, they love you for the gift you are bestowing upon them.

This is the real meaning of win-win. I AM in you meets I AM in someone else, and opposites are canceled out by reconciliation through the recognition of something in another human being that is greater than the trance of the great illusion. You are giving those who would act inimically toward you a chance to redeem themselves by going beyond who, what, and how they normally are. You and they make a winning circumstance out of a situation that could have caused both of you to lose. Because you changed yourself at will, you changed them by proxy. Now you and your antagonist are both making a profit!

Can you see how powerful this makes you and how truly loving, even and especially if, you had to stand up to people, hiss, or even playact to get them there? The power of redemption is the greatest force in creation and it can flow through you when you are connected with that which underlies everything — the great I AM! It can express through you a pragmatic, nonsentimental love that cancels out opposites and draws separation and fragmentation back into a state of unity. To work with that force in creation puts you on the fast track of evolution, so fasten your seatbelt.

We are surrounded by a delusional dream state where atoms and molecules masquerade as material substance. Maya, the cosmic illusion, the supreme creator’s sleight of hand, is a conjuring trick behind which are hidden the riches of the primal joy, bliss, and lasting happiness. Our task, as evolving souls, is to see through the trick and steal the treasure for ourselves. And we must learn to do this right in the marketplace of life, surrounded by the clamorous din of people buying and selling their souls to the illusion. Through the techniques and principles you are learning here, soon you too will be able to affirm with me:

Wherever I go, whatever I do, the I AM in me is awake in the dream that keeps others in bondage by their own consent. I, however, refuse to accept the self-imposed limitations of my own sleep or anyone else’s. Right here, in the midst of life, in the face of any circumstance, my soul and I generate the power of being and presence. We live in I AM consciousness and, from this state, can say to the world with absolute authority: We always make a profit!
