I understand why you would post that, but what did God tell Moses his name is? God’s name is “I AM”, right? So if I ask you what God’s name is, you would say “I AM”. That’s right, this is trying to convey to you that you are divine, that you are a God. Not “The God”, but divine. Do you understand the true power that you possess?
Let's discuss the true meaning behind the Bible

im trying to get to know my true self without my ego
Your true self is the righteous form of yourself in every action, deed and word. Our true self is often filtered through our egoic actions that tell us to be prideful, arrogant, etc. The best way that I can relay in knowing yourself is to meditate, watch your EVERY action and words, and try to give more so than you receive. Truly, life is a game of giving and receiving! The more we give love to others and ourself, the more we receive, and that can be more spiritual awareness, prosperity, etc.

That's nice and all, but moot since the Bible is about, theology, history, poetry, etc.
In short, it's about humanity's 'relationship' with the 'divine'.
Your attempt to 'simplify' it is eisegesis and invalid.

You're attempting to fundamentally change the Gospel and push 'New Age', semi-gnostic reasoning into the text.
Heard all that before and not buying it.

You’d have to start with why you disagree with the Most High’s name being YHWH (He Is, The Existing One, Jehovah in the English) which appears over 6500 times in the KJV.
Pull the “I Am” verse from Exodus and break that down for me breh.
Moses says in Exod. 3:14-15 that Jehovah told him that His name means: "I AM THAT I AM." Hebrew students say that the original word is JHVH. which means the ever living male-and-female principle. Lee's Hebrew Lexicon identifies this name with Christ, as the manifestation of God that speaks to patriarchs and prophets. Jesus confirms this in Matt. 22:42-45, where He reveals that the Christ existed before David, whose son He was supposed to be. In the Old Testament the spiritual I AM is symbolically described as Jehovah- in the New Testament it is called Christ.
Creation originates and exists in Divine Mind, God. In the creative process Divine Mind first ideates itself. In the Scripture this ideal is named Jehovah, meaning I AM the ever living--He who is eternal. The creation is carried forward through the activity of the Holy Spirit.
The Hebrew Jehovah has been translated "Lord." Lord means an external ruler. Bible students say that Jehovah means the self-existent One. Then instead of reading "Lord" we should read I AM. It makes a great difference whether we think that I AM, self-existence, is within, or Lord, master, without. All Scripture shows that Jehovah means just what God told Moses it meant, I AM. "This is my name forever, and this is my memorial unto all generations." So whenever you read the word Lord in Scripture say I AM instead and you will get a clearer understanding of what Jehovah is. Jehovah-jireh means I AM the provider. If we expect to demonstrate prosperity from without we find it a slow process; but if we know that I AM is the provider we have the key to the inexhaustible resource. God was also known to the Israelites as Jehovah-shalom--"I AM peace." We can demonstrate peace of mind by holding the words, "I am peace." with the understanding that the real I AM is Jehovah within us.

The Bible is a parable, which is what Jesus spoke to his disciples. What is a parable? A parable is a type of metaphorical analogy. What is a metaphorical analogy? A metaphorical analogy is a figure of speech that, for rhetorical effect, directly refers to one thing by mentioning another. So if we take all that into consideration, we will find that the stories are referring to one thing by relaying a different type of anecdotal story that illustrates the deeper meaning.
Jesus is an illustration of the ideal man that we are to become in mind, body and spirit. In other words, we are to have his mind state, not to worship a man named Jesus.
Philippians 2:5-11
King James Version
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Heaven means mind and earth represents the body.
Lord means "I AM," so the last verse literally reads Jesus Christ is I AM, to the glory of God the Father or source of this state of mind.
