"I AM"
In our theatre parlance this means that I have put myself into the very centre of imaginary circumstances, . . . that I exist at the heart of an imaginary life, in a world of imaginary things, . . . and that I am on the point of going into action . . . on my own responsibility.
As a participant . . . you cannot see yourself, but only what surrounds you. . . . You react with your inner nature to what is going on as truly as in real life.
If you sense the truth in a play subconsciously, your faith in it will naturally follow, and the state of "I am." . . . The smallest action or sensation, the slightest technical means, can acquire a deep significance . . . only if it is pushed to its limit of possibility, to the boundary of human truth, faith and the sense of "I am." When this point is reached, your whole spiritual and physical make-up will function normally. -- Collected Works, Vol. II
