What it was
Guy and Edna Ballard founded the “I AM” Activity in the early 1930s after Guy reported encounters with the Ascended Master Saint Germain on Mount Shasta.
It taught decrees and visualisations directed to the “Mighty I AM Presence,” adapting Theosophy’s Masters into a vivid American devotional practice.
