Our beloved Dr. Hawkins defines the ego as, “the imaginary doer behind thought and action.” It’s beyond our comprehension that we are awareness itself, the observer and not the doer or thinker. These insights radically transform our lives, lead us out of suffering and uplift us to the Celestial realms. Thank God for Dr. Hawkins. Gloria in Excelsis Deo!
Beyond our comprehension because, awareness is prior to thoughts. We can’t think are way there…. We just ARE awareness 😊 One of main reasons why formal meditation is essential. At least until things get clear.
he's so adorable & funny. i think persona meant mask in ancient greek. my teacher talked about how as he came into enlightenment, he took off all his masks till he was standing there completely naked. but then he had to construct a personality to interact with the world. sometimes i got the impression that it was a huge drag for him to keep up this persona which he knew was false, and i could sometimes see "cracks" in it. he talked about how the energy of enlightenment is immensely attractive to people, but also really jarring & terrifying if there's no mediating persona, as people's egos instinctively feel threatened by the implied possibility of ego-death.
Thanks for your comment; I appreciate hearing about people’s experience, and advice from actual gurus. Not that I’m enlightened or anything, but I do feel like I’ve stripped a lot of my ego off to the point where it is hard to socialize like I used to 😅 I find myself just patiently listening to people until the comedy of reality reveals the innate magic of it all. To which I state the joke in hopes to lighten the mood and that people can appreciate the moment💚

I experienced this. I came home from Yoga meditation and sat on my couch enjoying the Peace and I closed my eyes and a scene unfolded before my eyes. I walked up to Jesus and stood before Him. He reached out His Hand put it on my head in Blessing and with His other Hand waved a man in who stood beside me and Jesus Lay His Hand of Blessing on him too. You Never Forget! Someday Jesus will bring me my companion. 😊❤
He's talking about the "I thought" Ramana Maharshi speaks of. I was determined to understand this and once when I was taking a bath I was staring out the window at trees and it's as if it's like a tiny bubble that pops. If you really desire to understand you will. ❤
How does becoming the witness differ from Depersonalization? Honest question. I’ve meditate for many years and sometimes wonder if my detachment from ego and form is just a symptom of self invoked depersonalization.
that is a very good question! I always try to look for answers in the nature. When you watch a river, you see it moves smoothly though the rocks and any obstacle on its way. It does not stop and say or think oh I dont like this rock! This rock is on my way and I dont want it there! I will go around it or just ignore its existence even better instead I will start dreaming how it will be if it was not there. Instead river just IS without rejecting or accepting anything. Just be in the NOW
In at least one of his books, there are charts that contrast negative psychological states with authentic spiritual states. Great question! Also has observable indicators to help identify. Incredibly useful when trying to discern higher states, or pathology. I think, Truth vs Falsehood is the book.
I wish I could have talked to him ... Awareness means To know but this knowing is done by Self or sense of self .... Both Sense of self and awareness are qualia and there is nothing beyond that ... There is no witness of qualia because witness itself comes under qualia . Hawkins said he couldn't figure out to whom they were talking to . This is sign of Multiple personality, he was not lying that he deeply felt that witness of experiencer but ultimately the truth is that he had two sense of self and he tried to discredit other one but both were part of same persona as mentioned by Jung .
Yes and you are it. You are the soul and you have a body and mind. People think it’s the other way around but it is not. Awareness is prior to thought. Thats why meditation helps recognise it, by becoming more spacious.
Ultimately we all share the same awareness, it’s not yours or mine. It’s just awareness. That’s why it’s called “Unity consciousness”. In essence all is one. Forms are just appearances, including mental forms.
please keep posting we all cannot afford to pay thank you is it like at the doctor when they roll off personal questions...and your there for the body? or being at work and the presumptions that get said, and your better off going along with the ding dogs intelligence level than joining it?
I am enlightened, I just watch my body type this message, I have no clue what is coming out, its consciousness itself doing the typing, steve is still here but consciousness moved in, its like being in John Malkovich's Body, someone else is in there
David Hawkins is sublime he is missed dearly
He's never left
No one else even comes close 😂
When I read his book "Transcending the Levels of Consciousness" I feel like he's never left.
I feel like he's running a class or seminar, just like the one you see in this video, in the afterlife.

So, the consciousness is the Soul and the observer?
Yes and you are it. You are the soul and you have a body and mind.
People think it’s the other way around but it is not.
