The chapter "The Power of I AM" in Pedagogy of the Soul is one of the most profound, transformative, and fundamental reflections in the entire book. It is at once a spiritual meditation, a life lesson, an exercise in awareness, and a call to return to one's authentic self.
📖 Commentary: The Power of I AM
(Superpower No. 3 – from "Pedagogy of the Soul" by Ana Dalfovo)
✨ 1. I AM – The supreme verb of creation
"I AM" is not just a grammatical expression – it is an existential statement.
It is the verb of creation, spoken by God in the Bible ("I am that I am") and which appears constantly in the teachings of the great spiritual masters.
> "I AM is the consciousness that shapes your life."
Ana explains not only logically, but experientially: this formulation not only affirms reality, but creates and attracts it.
Every "I AM..." statement is a creative act, an energetic contract you sign with yourself and the Universe.
🧠 2. Words as a shaping power
> "Every word you utter is an impression that your mind, body, and psyche want to turn into reality." (Marisa Peer)
This phrase is the key to understanding: not only your mind, but also your body and soul react to your words.
Do you often say "I'm tired," "I'm stupid," "I'm poor"? This is not just polite talk. It is an energetic statement that asks the Universe to confirm your affirmation.
That is why Ana insists that in school—and in life—we teach children from an early age to name themselves with love, courage, value, and wisdom. This is not simple positive psychology, but spiritual alchemy.
💡 3. Identification—danger and salvation
> "You then put yourself in the mental cage labeled 'Stupid' and begin to feel and interpret that role..."
Here is an essential observation about the power of self-identification.
Any adjective that follows "I AM" becomes a form of accepted destiny.
But the good news is that you can just as easily free yourself from the cage with the same wording:
"I AM brave."
"I AM creative."
"I AM healed."
These statements are not lies, but proud seeds of truth – your supreme truth, in the making.
🌱 4. An example of healing through I AM
The passage in which Ana talks about her adolescence, about the suffering caused by low self-esteem, and about how her mother offered her the I AM prayer is moving and healing.
> "I looked in the mirror and didn't like what I saw. [...] I began to express the power of I AM with all the surrender of my soul and the recognition of Spirit."
This sequence shows us that authenticity, vulnerability, and love can restore the deep identity of being.
🌌 5. Affirmation as a spiritual tool
The final part is a prayer of alignment. It is not dogmatic, but open and profound.
The affirmations "I AM health," "I AM the Watchful Presence," "I AM Love," etc. are energetic statements that awaken consciousness.
"I AM God in action.
It is an invitation to live consciously, present, creative, enlightened—not as a theoretical idea, but as a daily practice.
🧭 6. The role of school: educating divine identity
Ana makes a revolutionary proposal:
> "School should liberate the expressions of Being, not lock it into boxes for social use."
Education should not create conformity, but freedom of spiritual expression.
Instead of preparing students only for careers, it should help them affirm their authentic identity:
"I AM—and I recognize myself as an expression of the Divine."
✨ Conclusion:
The chapter The Power of I AM is a call to return home, to our hearts.
It is a teaching about how the spoken word becomes destiny, and how self-definition through love is the key to awakening.
> 🕊️ "I AM" is the key that opens the door to the soul.
Speak it with Love. And you will become all that you already are. 🌺
