I Am that I Am, Adamus of Sovereign Domain.
Welcome to this gathering, dear Shaumbra.
(Most of the audience members are wearing tee-shirts with strange characters that, when folded, say a
vulgar phrase. When Adamus begins, audience members stand and show him their shirts.)
I’m going to keep my eyes closed for the rest of this Shoud! (lots of laughter from audience and and
Adamus; Sart shouts “We got ya!”) Only here! Only with Shaumbra! Why are you showing me your
breasts?! (laughter) I don’t understand. Some of the men’s are
bigger than women’s! Amazing. Could I … oh, we’ll stay away
from that! (more laughter)

So you play joke on the teacher today! (laughter) It’s going to be
a long Shoud. A long Shoud. What do you think all these people
all over the world listening in thought? Laughing, laughing,
laughing. Cheering, applauding. Does anyone want to explain the
meaning of this saying? Yes? (speaking to Sart) The instigator.
The creator. The perpetrator. Yes, and the meaning is?

SART: I told them not to do it. (laughter)
LINDA: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. (she brings him the microphone)
ADAMUS: Yes.
SART: I told them not to do it.
ADAMUS: And you know … you know, lying is not good for you.
SART: I’m good at it though.
ADAMUS: And lying to Adamus is even worse.
SART: Ehh, it means love and compassion. (lots of laughter)
ADAMUS: Uh-huh. And this is how you love yourself? This is the compassion for yourself?!
SART: Thanks, gang!

ADAMUS: Well, this is a first in any of my schools or
classes. (laughter) I’ve had students falling asleep. Ah, I’ve
had some give me flowers. (someone gives him flowers;
audience responds “Awww” and Adamus gives her a kiss)
She and I are going to go in the back room for the rest of
the Shoud. Where the wine is, absolutely.
It is a first, and I’ll have you know that the other Ascended
Masters who are here with me today got a bigger laugh out
of it than you did. (laughter) Thank you. Thank you. Yes.
Only here. Ah, if you would my dear. (he gives the flowers
to Linda)
LINDA: Thank you. We’ll find a home for them.

ADAMUS: Ah, I deserved that one. I was going to start off with a stern message. (laughter) How could I
now? (someone shouts “Oh no!”) (Adamus tries to compose himself, then chuckles again; more laughter)
Perhaps we’ll go back to the breathing. The music we’ll do over. (laughter)
I was going to open with the words … the words that said “I assume if you are here” – I was going to
get very dramatic, kind of poetic about it – “I assume that if you’re here, if you are watching or if you
are reading this, it is because you are ready for enlightenment.” (audience cheering and applause) My
beautiful opening!

I deserve it. I deserve it. I was going to be a bit too serious today. Ah yes.
But I do assume that if you’re here, if you’re watching or you’re listening, it is because this is going to be
your last lifetime on this planet. (audience responds “Yes!”) Oh, that was a hearty yes! And if an angelic
being came up to you and said, “David, I think you need another lifetime,” what would you tell that being?

DAVID: Bullshit!
ADAMUS: You have it right on your shirt! (laughter) Right there. Yeah. (Adamus chuckles)

Your Enlightenment

I assume that if you are here you are absolutely serious about your enlightenment. Absolutely, to the point
that it’s the only thing. It is the thing. Why? because you spent many, many lifetimes in this rabbit chase.
You’ve studied so much, sacrificed so much, suffered so much, and now you’ve said, “This is it. This is it.”
I make this point as we start – serious point as we start – because then assume yourself that everything that’s
happening in your life right now – everything – is all being directed towards this. You made a conscious
choice. You made a very clear choice. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be here. You would have left a while back.
(Adamus chuckles) I’m trying to be so serious! Excuse me sir, you have a bug on your lip. (laughter he
speaks to a woman with a sombrero and a stick-on mustache) How can I be serious – dear God, how? – with
all of this?!

I assume that with your conscious choice for enlightenment that everything now that’s happening in your
life is focusing on that. Every event is about the enlightenment. Everything that happens – you may not like
everything, because a lot of the things that are happening are about clearing and changes – but everything
that’s happening is all funneling into this enlightenment.

I know so often you wonder “What’s going on? Why can’t I seem to understand all of this? Why is it
that I’m having these ups and downs?” My dear friends, it’s all about the enlightenment. Everything.
Everything. You don’t even need to ask questions about why this is happening or why that’s happening.
It’s about your enlightenment.

Now, that raises a lot of questions – What is enlightenment? – and unfortunately, there’s a lot of confusion
about that. What is ascension? A lot of confusion. But let’s just say that it is the integration of yourself, of
your divinity, of your aspects, bringing back together every part and piece of you in the physical body in
this lifetime.

Now, whether you then leave the body or whether you stay and really enjoy, is to be seen. It’s a decision
I can’t make for you. I don’t even want to coach you on one way or the other. But in that moment of
enlightenment you’ll know. You’ll know. There’s no need to fear it. It is perhaps the greatest choice you’ll
ever make. There’s no reason to fear the departure of the physical body. As I’ve said before, you’ve done it
many, many times before. Very easy.

It’s difficult to even anticipate what human life in an enlightened state is going to be about, and I know that
you ponder it. You think about it – “What’s that going to be like to be enlightened and physical?” – but right
now, at least in this moment, the mind can’t even imagine. Can’t even. You can imagine, what you would
say, through your creative, through your heart, through your feelings. But the mind can’t even imagine. So
what happens is that the mind, the human side, then starts fearing, starts wondering, starts backing away.

My dear friends, you can’t back away from it. You really can’t. You made a very conscious choice. Everything
is in motion. With what you know now, you couldn’t go back to being asleep. You couldn’t. And you’ve
tried, and you’ve tried, but you can’t. You know too much. You’re aware of too much now.
You can procrastinate. You can distract yourself, which you’re getting to be experts at doing. Or you can just
take that deep breath, have no fear.

My dear friends, I said in a recent Shoud, I said – whether it’s five,
whether it’s a thousand, doesn’t matter – but just a few beings,
humans, staying in the physical body in enlightenment will make an
amazing difference on not just this Earth, but on all the realms. It’s
not easy. Absolutely not.
