"I am" is not an "in here" phenomena looking "out there" at a frightening
universe full of dangerous things - "I am" shows up as a function of what is
in the clearing "out here" at the edges of experience both finite and
anti-finite. That is to say that a contracted individual was never "born
into" a world, rather IT is "of" this world and comes into being in a
relationship with physical existence that cannot be separated from physical
existence itself. Paradoxically "I am" both real and unreal and the dance
between all that is "me" can be truly magical.
