Try meditating on "I AM" with no other thoughts.

Both Nisargadatta Maharaj and Ramana Maharshi use that technique, and so do I. It is quite revealing.

This realisation is the REALISATION, the ultimate truth, though is primoridal all truths which are nothing but illusion.

I AM is right now, right here, in every moment, in every breath, in every blink of the eye.

If you think you have to do this or that to find I AM, you think, I AM is already found, it is in plain view.

Thinking gives birth to illusion, absence of thinking reveals that which was always here, the absolute truth of who you are and what you are. You are not who you think you are, you are who you are.

I wrote in my messages about all of this, though it took me time to realise what I was given in those messages.

The Secret though it is no secret.

Know the truth ( I AM ) and the truth ( I AM ) shall set you free.

Well said. Note that as soon as one completes the sentence "I AM <something>", duality and separateness immediately arise.

... and yet there is that from which even the I AM arises.

This is going very deep.
