Simple Presence: The "I am's"
of the Aramaic Jesus
Native Middle Eastern Chant &
Devotional Music
The "I am" statements of Jesus from the Gospel
of John, as viewed from Jesus'native language Aramaic, point
to a state of "simple presence"-a connection to the
"I Am that I Am." Each feeling or experience mentioned
is a doorway to this connection. This recording gives chants
and music to a sequence of Dances of Universal Peace that use
seven of these "I am" statements in Aramaic. Listening
to, chanting with and contemplating these chants can take the
listener into the shem of Yeshua-his vibration or atmosphere-and
fulfill his advice to pray b'sheme ("with my light-sound-atmosphere").
