If I Am is sat and I Know is cit,
I Love I Know I Am is ananda.
I am, I know, I love I know I am—
daily prayer for Saguna Brahman.

Regarding this reflection of consciousness in the subtle body of the mind, I-know is the reflection of cit in satcitananda (called the knower), as I-am is the reflection of sat.
I Am and the Knower is like this main connection between electricity of satcitananda and the body-mind appliance. In other words, it's where where the real meets maya.
I Am and I Know are bus stops of meditation. Nisargadatta says relax and watch the I Am—reality is right behind it. Advaita says the same about the knower and the witness.
Thinker, knower, witness, self.
Subtle, reflected, pure, unborn.
Mind, consciousness, awareness, turiya.
Western scientific priests preaching consciousness is a product of evolutionary materialism without a molecule of proof are asking for your blind faith and unquestioning belief.
Consciousness is not a product of the body-mind. You cannot petition the lord with theory.
Consciousness is the sea in which western waves of ignorance appear.
sun, moon, moonlight and earth.
satcitananda
witness, knower, mind and object.
ajatavada
principle of existence, ground of consciousness, essence of bliss.

According to this Shankaracharya, I am the One as the subtle and the knower, the witness, immutable existence.
It's like a ladder to the Fourth. The subtle is the mind and the knower is reflected consciousness. The witness is awareness. Immutable existence is unborn.
Like pure consciousness is the sun, the knower is the moon, and the mind is moonlight illuminating earth. Further, the principle of existence transcends this big bang of spacetime.
Atman is not reflected consciousness nor unconsciousness.
Brahman is imperceptible, unrelatable, and indescribable.
Turiyam is that intuitive unborn I-essence, like Ayam Atma Brahma.
Sages say I am that silver screen upon which this movie is playing.
They say this movie has no beginning. Only truth reveals its end.
Naturally such revelations first appeared in the highest Himalayas.
They call those first four thunderous utterances the Mahavakyas.
A forest of Upanishads would grow around their divine light.
Prajnanam Brahma. Tat Tvam Asi. Ayam Atma Brahma. Aham Brahma Asmi.
Within this fortress of spacetime, reality feels like a rock hard wall.
That's not reality though. That's me slamming into the limits of duality.
Reality transcends spacetime as the sky contains and pervades the clouds.
Reality is that spaceless awareness and timeless existence seeing through my so-called walls.
To auspiciousness of being, the principle of existence, and presence of nonduality.
To the ground of consciousness, self-awareness, and raw intelligence.
To this holistic bliss infinity that I am.
Aum
