Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
When He has countless auspicious divine qualities, why say that the 'aham' term shows these qualities?

When He is removing that which the chetana does not want and give him what he seeks, it is omniscience and omnipotence that are needed 1. to know where he stood once and to know the path that he needs to take now, and 2. knowing that, being able to complete that task. When doing this, the fact that it is done for Himself and not for the sake of the chetana is due to His lordship.

Therefore, it is appropriate to say that the 'aham' brings forth these qualities.
