That was a great thread enjoyed reading it. The 'I AM' is God, Central Station.
The train is suppose to go to Central Station, the train in this case is the 'I Am' mantra.
The OP seems to imply whether an 'I am' mantra can take you to central station or not ? Some who answered said,
they are using mantras which came from Central Station or God and when they say their mantra they are already at home or at least in the vicinity ?
One thing that did strike me after reading this thread and practicing a little tai chi is the amount of transport, vehicles or Spiritual Paths that will take you to God ?
Is it God or the Absolute's infinite mercy that this is the case ? Quiet unbelievalbe isn't it ? How many paths are there ? And just one mountain top perhaps !
Ok hope you don't me adding a song by George Harrison titled, Any Road ..."Any Road Will Take you There... "
Thank you and suffice to say some of my own thoughts and just my opinion of course :)
