Re: How would you say "I am one with everything" in Pali?
Greetings,
I'd recommend "sabbe dhamma anatta"...
sabbe = all
dhamma = (experienced) phenomena
anatta = not-self, not-I
Metta,

"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."

Thank you Friends,
as much as I like "sabbe dhamma anatta", and I plan on using that as a mantra, I would still very much like to know Pali for
"I am one with everything"
if anybody knows please tell me.
Thank you very much

Re: How would you say "I am one with everything" in Pali?
Dear Kashi,
"I am one with everything" isn't really a Theravada Buddhist concept, so will be a little difficult to render it into meaningful Pali.

Re: How would you say "I am one with everything" in Pali?
Yes I can see and understand how it would be difficult as the phrase is not really something the Buddha taught, I guess I was just looking at it from my own perspective as to say "everything" also meaning "nothing". The bigger picture of "everything" if that makes any sense lol...
thought it would sound cool in the pali language. I hope someone might know.

Re: How would you say "I am one with everything" in Pali?
is actually one of the wrong views mentioned in one of the suttas but can not remember which one!
find the sutta you have your passage.

Blog, Suttas, Aj Chah, Facebook.
He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them.
But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion …

He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them … he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form.

I do recall this as being wrong view and I am trying to remember what the sutta was as I know I read it not long ago...
Perhaps I should stick to "sabbe dhamma anatta"...
(I like having my own little mantras that are not the "norm")
Take care my friend.

Re: How would you say "I am one with everything" in Pali?
I don't recall it being phrased exactly like that, but there is this from MN 1, Ven Nanamoli trans:
Is that what you were thinking of?23. “He perceives unity as unity. Having perceived unity as unity, he conceives [himself as] unity, he conceives [himself] in unity, he conceives [himself apart] from unity, he conceives unity to be ‘mine,’ he delights in unity. Why is that? Because he has not fully understood it, I say.
...
25. “He perceives all as all. Having perceived all as all, he conceives [himself as] all, [4] he conceives [himself] in all, he conceives [himself apart] from all, he conceives all to be ‘mine,’ he delights in all. Why is that? Because he has not fully understood it, I say.

Re: How would you say "I am one with everything" in Pali?
Greetings Kashi,
Well, if that's the one you were thinking of, maybe you might like to pause and think again... since if you read the sutta end-to-end, you'll see it's actually speaking out against such perceptions. Compare what the worldling does, what the trainee should do, and what the arahant does.
Metta,
Retro.
