"I am what I am." -- God, Exodus 3:14, The Bible
One day, as Moses was tending his flock he encountered a "burning bush" whose flames were not devouring its branches.
The burning bush was the manifestation of God; everchanging and eternal.
When Moses asked God: "What is your name?", God said (depending on translation): "I am who I am" or "I will be what I will be".
In the now, God is a "who". In the time after (and presumably before) the now, God is a "what".
Encapsulating all times, we can paraphrase God: "I am what I am".
In the now, God is a nameless "who", implying God is not one person/thing or another but every thing.
As "what", God is an unspecified transcendental potential of infinite manifestations.
God also self-identifies as "I am"; implying God is being, not a being.
God is flow of the Everything.
IAWIA
Acronyms:
"I WHY" (IA-WIA, first vowel pronounced and second vowel silent).
"A-WAY" (first vowel silent and second vowel pronounced).
I WHY
Why do I exist?
Or, more broadly, why does the universe exist?
Reasons/explanations imply cause and effect which in turn imply the universe is comprised of many independent things.
However, all things are interdependent, as the "universe" is "all things turned into one".
Reasons/explanations are as illusionary as the independence of things.
Simply, the universe just is.
A WAY
The written word for God is YHWH which may be pronounced as "A WAY".
"A WAY" can be likened to the Tao ("the Way").
As the Way, YHWH is the underlying natural order of the universe, an eternal and ineffable force that flows through all things.
YHWH is a nameless cosmic force that binds and releases all things; the energy of action and existence.
Aligning oneself with the "A WAY", one realizes harmony and balance; as all the pieces of the universe come together as one peace....
