Yahweh vs Tat Tvam Asi

How interesting that the 2 root religions agree on the core.

In the Bible Exodus 3:14

14 God said to Moses, “I am who I am.[a] This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.’”

[https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus%203%3A13%2D15&version=NIV]

Isn't that interesting. The name of the core principle of the Universe is "I AM." Yet for the fallen who have turned away from G-d the core principle of their lives is "I AM."

Isn't this the WHOLE problem. When Satan has a grasp over you he tricks you into thinking you exist as a separate entity from which wishes, desires, will, opinions and actions all originate. You are tricked into missing the obvious fact that all these originates from the world from which obviously you came. Honour your Mother and Father not because of some oppression but because you, and all that which is you come from them. There is nothing in you which has not come from your parents, and nothing in them which has not come from the world and God.

So the "I AM" which we all feel is not ours, but it belongs to God. This is why the truthful realise not to purse their own wishes, but instead pursue what they see as the wishes of God.

Now there is an obvious pitfall here. Often times you hear religious people confusing their own wishes with those of God. When they do selfish and ungodly things the believe it is God's desire for them. Clearly there is no difference between doing what you want to do and attributing this to God and just doing what you want to do. Understanding that "I AM" comes from God implies that we no longer listen to the lies of the "I AM" which originates in me. Those who obey the Godly "I AM" are first and foremost servants to other people. No servitude then no understanding of "I AM." And the resistance we have to giving up our own wishes is exactly the power Satan has over us and which leads us away from God.

Now in Tat Tvam Asi we have a very similar thing. This is when we realise that the Atman (the inside I AM which centres our individual lives) is the same I AM of the Universe, the Brahman. Normally when unenlightened we see the world as standing between us and what we want. When things go well and we get what we want we Love the world, and when things go badly we hate the world. In both cases the World stands between what we want and what we get. But there comes a point where we realise they are the same. The pushes of the inner self are the same as the resistance of the outer world. After all a coin has two sides and it just depends which way you are looking. A person can only succeed or fail on a path that they have themselves originated at the start - why blame the world! Equally no world in which to create success or failure and what is there to push against, why blame the self. They are the same. There is only one I AM here too.

But like in Judaism to get to this point since we start so close to the Atman, we need become a servant to Brahman and the world first before we can hope to ever be close to Brahman.
