constant attention to I-am

If attention is focused on the feeling of I-am with such intensity that the thoughts "I am this or that" do not arise, then the individual "I" will be unable to connect with objects.


If this awareness of 'I' is sustained, the individual 'I' (the I thought) will disappear, and in its place will be a direct experience of the Self.

This constant attention to the inner awareness of 'I' or 'I Am' was called self-enquiry (vichara) by Bhagavan and he constantly recommended it as the most efficient and direct way of discovering the unreality of the 'I'-thought.

Be as you are - p 45 (self enquiry -- theory). Ah, this clarifies everything, i need not worry, just remain in the I-Am awareness.
