Dr. David R. Hawkins
David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph.D., is a well known
spiritual teacher, author and consciousness researcher whose trilogy,
Power vs Force, The Eye of the I, and
I: Reality and Subjectivity, have won him
wide acclaim. He has been Knighted by the Danish Crown and nominated for
the John Templeton Award. His work is at the leading edge of consciousness
research. The verification of spiritual realities includes the author's own
major subjective realizations and transformation.
Prior background includes 50 years of work in psychiatry, publication of the
ground breaking book Orthomolecular Psychiatry with Nobelist
Linus Pauling, many awards, and
presentations of lectures at the world's most prestigious institutions
(Westminster Abbey, Notre Dame, Harvard, Oxford, UCLA, and University of
Michigan to name a few).
Dr. Hawkins has been a consultant to the Zen Monasteries, Catholic and
Protestant ministries, Unity, and other churches. His extensive background is
detailed in Who's Who in America and he has been a guest of MacNeil/Lehrer,
Barbara Walters and The Today Show. He is the founder of the Spiritual Pathway
of Devotional Nonduality. While Dr. Hawkins' presentations are described
as "unique and awesome," they are also very characteristically humorous despite
his formal title in the Far East as the "Foremost Teacher of Enlightenment" -

Devotional Nonduality
"The Direct Pathway to Enlightenment is by transcending the ego/mind and
renouncing the false identification with the linear obstacles to the
radiance of God Immanent as Self. This is facilitated by understanding
the basic characteristics of consciousness, the carrier wave that forms
the substrate of awareness itself. By Grace, the unobstructed
Illumination of the Divine Radiance shines forth effortlessly ." |
Power vs. Force
POWER vs. FORCE is the culmination of twenty years' research. In it, David Hawkins conclusively proves the ability of kinesiological testing to distinguish truth or falsehood in any statement - an astonishing idea in itself, with far reaching implications for every aspect of human life. He goes on to demonstrate the application of his method (explained dearly for the layman) in commerce, art, sport, etc. Then he explains its spiritual application, as a path to enlightenment.
Beyond this, Dr. Hawkins demonstrates kinesiological calibration as a tool for assessing value and motive, revealing the hidden determinants of human behavior - and establishing a Map of Consciousness that illuminates the spiritual ladder we must follow as a race and as individuals.
The volume concludes with compendious notes and bibliography, and, finally, a fascinating narrative of the author's own journey from atheism to spiritual enlightenment.
From the Author: "All human endeavor has the common goal of
understanding or influencing human experience. To this end, man has
developed numerous descriptive and analytical disciplines: Morality, Philosophy,
Psychology, and so on....Regardless what branch of inquiry one starts from -
philosophy, political theory, theology-all avenues of investigation eventually
converge at a common meeting point: the quest for an organized understanding of
the nature of pure consciousness... To explain that which is simple can be
difficult indeed. Much of this book is devoted to the process of making
the simple obvious. If we can understand even one simple thing in depth,
we will have greatly expanded our capacity for comprehending the nature of the
universe and life itself". - David R. Hawkins, M.D. Ph.D.,
Sedona, Arizona, December 2001.
