The I AM Foundation is a new religious movement that is devoted to spreading the word about what adherents believe to be an ancient civilization that lives in adjacent Mount Shasta volcano. The organization is based in Mt. Shasta, California, USA.

The I AM movement is probably the best publicized Mount Shasta-related religion. It holds that Shasta is home of the Lemurians, a race of very civilized refugees from an ancient kingdom called "Mu" that was lost to a cataclysm when their continent Lemuria sank to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Lemurians are described as being seven feet tall and having a walnut-sized sensory organ in the middle of their foreheads. They reportedly use this organ to communicate via extra-sensory perception. Believers

The movement was founded as a result of the first reported sighting of Lemurians that is said to have occurred about 1930.

It is important to note that the above information is in no way related to the religious sect called The "I Am" Activity, which was also founded in 1930 by Guy Ballard, who is said to have encoundered the Ascended Master Saint Germain on the side of the mountain.
