- In this video I share some breakthroughs and clarifications on the letting go technique as taught by David R. Hawkins. Specifically on surrendering the juice that your ego is getting out of a situation, rather than just surrendering the situation itself. Enjoy!
Letting Go - amzn.to/2XA2VpY - Good intro book
The Main Trilogy - amzn.to/2XCyBL9 - amzn.to/2xF3VcK - amzn.to/2XyJcC9 - That is Power vs. Force, Eye of the I, and I: Reality and Subjectivity. Best to be read in order.

Knowing and naming the feelings or knowing that it feeds the ego is not the letting go technique. Feeling the feeling is what releases the feeling. It's not an intellectual exercise.
Thank you, Brother. I have been studying his work for about 7 to 8 months. His work has helped me a lot.
David Hawkins is REALLY amazing! have you also read Power vs Force?
How waS your progress?
I listen to DH videos on RUclips and have and continue to read & studied most of his books all has redirected how I am in the world
Thanks so much! We love Dr David R Hawkins too🙏🏼 Roger started reading his books 16 years ago - what a life changer! Peace & Love✌🏼❤️
Along with feeling the raw sensation, this inquiry into the "juice" the ego feeds on is great, great advice. Thank-you:)
Have read Letting Go probably like a dozen times and have been practicing the technique for about 2-3 years and I found this video super helpful. I love docs works so much. Regarding the different tone of the book: I remember hearing that the manuscript was written in the 80s and published not long before his death. So it was written by him, but from before he got to writing his later stuff. I think it was written around the era that he was promoting the Sedona method. If you search 'David R Hawkins Sedona Method Interview' then you'll find a 1.5hr video where he's talking about this technique from a different angle, its a good listen. I love the satsang series, too. His personality was incredibly charming and heartwarming. Btw all the stories in the book are all about him in case ya didn't know :) Thanks for the video
oh yeah and I've always thought that the books The Eye of the I, and I: Reality and Subjectivity both kind of read like a modern day bible but with all the BS removed.
Nice insight! Thank you for sharing this
Heck yeah, those books are so amazing. Completely blew me up when I first read them
So like if you let go of the anger and negativity will you not feel those anymore, I’m confused about letting go. I mean you can’t get rid of your emotions. So what is letting go what does it do to your emotions
@@superhuman5857 my understanding is that you accept your emotions because they are part of being human. You let go of judging yourself for your emotions. See them as natural, perhaps the same way you would if it were a friend experiencing the same situation. That's a pretty brief explanation but I hope it helps a little.
One of the best explanations. Thank you!!!
🙏
I'm so so happy you encounter dr Hawkins insight such an early age, don't need to try too hard to let go, the seed will ripped one day, then it become your second nature! Congrats!
Thank you Callum. I'm a clinical psychologist in Australia who refers Sir David Hawkins books and to his work constantly. I also presented on his work at an international conference last year. It is so great to have found, via one of my clients, your video around Letting Go. Thank you for your recommendations as well. I have subscribed to your site and will refer you to colleagues, clients and friends.
Thank you! Really appreciate your comment my friend 🙏
I’m only a month or so into my Hawkins enquiry and really enjoyed your take on his work young blood 😌✨🙏🏼
Absolutely love the book Letting Go, and enjoy re reading it from time to time. I agree with this guy, the Audible recordings are great too.
definitely! theres a whole collection of recordings on Audible more than bro listed amzn.to/2Cj4yyv
Kyle Tabor Furr,your pretty smile can make the news!
Been detaching from my ego a lot recently, this helps . Thanks
Beautiful!
@@calumx : : Hi, I still don’t get it. May I please ask you for more details about the juice/payoff? Let’s say we hate someone for ruining our one chance at something we want. What do we get out of the hate - that we get to say the failure is caused by them and not our own fault? If so, how do we let go of that when it’s a fact? I’ve been in a modern Buddhist sect where the monk asked the congregants whose fault is it, and they together answer “Our own!” While it’s a practice of not blaming others, it’s also logically unsound, as in some situations we can be the innocent victim.
With your example, your juice is getting to say you’re right and they’re wrong. How do you let that go, though, when you ARE right?
With your other example - I have a lot of anxiety right now - what satisfaction could our ego be getting from that?
@@prezrickard hey .... ask yourself.... What am I getting out of holding onto this anxiety .... the answer is easy .... more anxiety? The next question is .... Do I want to hold onto this anxiety and cause myself more suffering or can I just notice the feeling .... feel it and let it go? Because the truthful answer is .... you are not getting anything but suffering when you hold onto any negative emotions ..... so the question.... what am I / my ego getting out of this .... is not really a question of who is right or who is wrong but is this feeling something I want to continue with .... remember .... we have but two choices in life .... do I listen to the voice of ego (which is suffering) or to the voice of the Holy Spirit which is peace? Anxiety is the ego..... so ask the question again .... what am i getting out of feeling anxiety .... the answer is simple ... more anxiety.... Is this something I want to continue with .... No .... hand it over to the Holy spirit and say to yourself.... I choose peace instead in this moment .... Peace means you can feel the feeling of anxiety but love yourself anyway .... the feeling will go away .... What the ego is getting out of feeling anxiety is feeling more empowered because of the fear it creates .... as long as the ego creates fear the longer it will stay strong but once you realize you have a choice and you do! .... its goodbye ego and hello peaceful life .... the ego does not know what Love or peace is ... that's why it creates fear and anxiety and suffering ..... we've just learned to believe the ego instead of our true self which is Forgiveness and Love ....
I'm currently reading Letting Go and am about half way through it. I've been trying to implement the method but am having some struggles. I'm so grateful I came across your video. It was super helpful. Thank you so much, Calum!
Really helpful tip on the process! Thank you!
Jeanne Thomas,your lovely smile can make the news!
That's a familiar story brother. Yeah, his collected work is hard to fully digest just because of the sheer magnitude of it, but more and more of his students are making a break for the 500's. Like Robert Smalley et al. I met David once. Super chill in person.
Wow, that sounds very logical and promising, will try that today. It's kind of hard to find out how letting go really works. Thank you very much for sharing your hard-earned insight!
Absolutely loved this video. Thank you so much for this valuable information. Lots of love from an Australian 🇦🇺❤
Thank you for your video.
I'm a fellow Hawkins student from Argentina. We study his work and teach it along with others spiritual scriptures.
Blessings.
Nice! Thats awesome, I would love a study group where I live but there are none. Blessings to you!
Letting Go is Hawkins legacy for everybody. His last gift to humanity for rising the global level of consciousness before leaving the physical domain. It's extremely well arranged. It's a psychological therapy that takes you to Heaven.
But there is only one paragraph explaining the actual technique. The rest of the book is just a description of different emotions from Hawkins’ perspective, as well as chapters about all the great things that happen when someone “let’s go”. I wish it went deeper into the actual mechanism. But maybe he did this on purpose, so we could each find our own way to let go...
Really good stuff! Thank you! The key to living a life of peace & flow!
I'm so happy I found this video and channel! First of all, I haven't come across many other young people being interested in his work and applying the letting go method in everyday life, so this is amazing to see! Also, thanks for the info about his work being on Audible, great to know! Lastly, I also noticed how the tone of Letting Go is different from his other books, it's definitely more neutral ✨
Glad you enjoyed! 🙏
Great video! Had only heard of his Power vs force book which i'm re-reading now. Very excited to learn that that was only book 1 of a trilogy! Thanks for the info and burst of inspiration!
Nice! Yeah his other books are very next level. Way more spiritually intense. Enjoy!
Great clarification. I didnt understand how to actually let go but this brings me light. Thanks
Dude this is really good! It's funny cause I was listening to "success is for you" by Dr. Hawkins yesterday and he was talking about how sometimes we hear something we already know and even though we've heard it before when a certain person says it in that moment it sinks in, and how that's a sign that at that moment the level of "power" (in Dr. Hawkins' terms) of that person created a receptivity for that idea in the listener and it sunk in and that just happened with this, I had heard doc talk about the ego juice we get out of negative emotions but hearing you explain it just made it finally sink in. Appreciate it brother, keep up the great work!
NICE!!! Glad you enjoyed. Cheers
Really nice insight, I am kn the same process right now, thankful to be reminded again!
Hawkins is amazing.
True that!
@@calumx very nice to see some people who apreciate the Doc's work.
He was/is amazing. His sense of humor is something else!
@@calumx by the way :) can you please tell me what's the music playing in the background? thanks.
Great video! I just realized that I am in a victim role in a situtation, that is the very reason, I can not let it go. Just realizing that released some tension from my body... wonderful!
Such a great book, haven't read it in awhile but you did a nice job summing it up
This was awesome insight.... Damn thanksssssss
Thank you for sharing
Hi, I had some pretty amazing experiences with the letting go techniek from DH as wel and I now am looking for people who also have experienced this to talk about it and to learn from each other. Your advise in the vid is very good!! Thanks for that!!
Hope your videos and inspiration inspired others as it did to you! I'm one of his great fan walk his talk in life.
feeling the raw sensation, this inquiry into the "juice" the ego feeds on is great, great advice. Thank-you:)
I,,, know,,,, who,,,, can,,,, help,,,, you,,,, w,,h,, a,, t,,z,, z,, +1-2-0-4-5-0-0-1-6-6-2..

You’ve just clarified some big issues of mine for me, thanks
His work connects well with science as how quantum physics, when you mindfully enough particles become one all illusions is released, cheers!
Working on this currently
Thanks for your input
That was brilliant. Thank you 🙏🏻 Audible is a really great idea! 😎🙏🏻
This was so helpful. Thanks heaps 🙏
Jules W,your pretty smile can make the news!
Thanks for this.
Laura Rose Gatley, you look stunning!
Thank you, your information is helpful.
Thank you 🙏❤️
Thanks for the help. I was thinking about my anger at my younger brother as you spoke of letting go of the satisfaction or juice. I felt a need to be right was what I was clinging to. As you were talking I acknowledged this feeling and my stomach and solar plexus area convulsed. The energy was definitely moving. It may have been released. Time will tell.
Eyyyy, that's so cool! Yeah it can be really hard to do this and I too have had issues with a brother. Sounds like you are on the right track!
Add "Radical Forgiveness by Colin C. Tipping to your reading list. This book is a game changer.
I like how at the end you mentioned the type of vids you make. Good marketing -usually ill have to click for myself. Great vid
A great explanation my friend, thank you for sharing this.
Great explanation. Thank you!
New subscriber. Thank you for this letting go explanation. Makes total sense and will help me immensely! Looking forward to your content.
Glad it helped!
Great video bro, thanks for the audible tips :)
Thanks for sharing 🌻
So last night I realised the feeling and then I tried thinking about a fear and my brain wanted to run away from it. But i sat with it and sometime crazy happened. I by passed the panic stage by keeping on at the feeling. It activated the right hand side of my brain. As I stuck with it. A bit like pushing a turd out. It eventually happens. Patience is key here. Then I addressed about 5 fears. Each one fading more easily. So far this is one of the coolest techniques for my condition.
Nice job!
wow, how true! Thank you☺️👍🏻
Easy peasy the technique and the explanation😅 thanks buddy
Awesome video dude! That was a helpful clarification :) Satsang series next on list
Great work dude many thanks
Thank you! 🙏
This is a new technique, this may be a good enquiry or a useful thing for some people, but it is not the same as what David Hawkins says is the letting go technique
I too am new to this and am finding the wonder of freedom from that which my ego says "I " must have......I don't, but it does, and I am better without it
Started listening to you
Heard the knock on the door
It’s a postman with my David’s book
“Letting Go” 🤣🤣🤣
Daaaang! Thats awesome
Very nice vid man
Thank you!
Wow! you are quite mature for your age!
I've half read the book and I love it but have trouble with the letting go mechanism. The way you explain it makes sense and makes it simpler but I still struggle. For example, today my partner was told me off for not having done a chore. I was going to do it but on my own time. I got mad, am still mad. And really can't know what my ego is feeding on. However I understand what you say. There have been times where I have provoked an argument, then I have felt better after, that's sick man. Any help, appreciated.
Ask yourself if you are willing to let go of being mad. The answer will probably be no. Ask yourself why? If you are fully willing to let go of being mad you will find a way
What does surrender feel like on emotional level (vs intellectual)? What does it mean to surrender?
Surrender is when you move from wanting to change something to observing it with no effort to change or manipulate it in any way. You’ll find that whatever you want to change will then dissolve if you surrender to it enough. I find it best to surrender to emotions. Once you learn to welcome them and stop resisting/wanting to change them, one by one they start to dissolve until it’s a habit and happens naturally. This takes a lot of time and practice so if you find yourself surrendering to a feeling for a while, don’t get frustrated. Just let it run it’s course further and even stop trying to get unstuck! Hope it helps
David hawkins work is Amazing ,i recently saw one website on google which critisized David R hawkins and judging him on his muscle testing work on power vs force , what is your opinion, have you tried muscle testing kinesiology?
I have tried muscle testing. When I first tried I was able to do it successfully. That was years ago and since then I can not. Muscle testing is legit. I think where Hawkins went wrong is that he explains it in such a way to make it seem that everyone can do it and that it is so easy. The problem is that if you have even the slightest interest in outcome, or thought about what the result is, it won't work. You have to be 100% detached and scientific, and I think he underestimated how hard that would be for your average person. When I try to muscle test something I often care about what the result is. So I think it is legit but it takes a special person to be able to do it successfully
@@calumx Thank you so much for clarification bro, nobody responded to this issue. i was about to start power vs force then people were giving negative feedback and sharing negative energy by comparing Dr Hawkins work with Dr john diamond and claiming that Dr Hawkins all books contains false test results. Now I'm clarified everyone has their unique approaches.
Thanks again ,I'll be back after finishing power vs force 😊👍
Power vs Force is a great way to understand the scientifical basis for a lot of the ideas covered by David. It was the first book I read from him, and coming from a very reason based mindset cultivated by school and college, it was a total life changer because in a sense it spoke my language. I find it beautiful that chaos theory and quantum mechanics have had such important discoveries at very close proximity time wise to Hawkin's work.
I wanna thank you for your insight on the letting go technique and muscle testing. Very spot on. Good luck on your journey :)
There are one another man who get enlightnment , Name is Sadhguru from india
What is 'autobo' or 'autobol'? Where can I find that? Thanks for this very good tip!!
Audible. It is an app and a website run by Amazon. You would download it on your phone
I'm interested in your opinion. What is your point of view on letting go of the attachment to a life altering personal diagnosis of chronic disease? Do you suggest surrendering of the emotions that come up when the diagnosis is considered in the mind?
I am really not qualified at all to talk on that. But yeah I would let go of all the emotions surrounding it. Even if there is guilt about feeling emotions about it. Everything. I know that Dr Hawkins has some good stuff out there on healing. And that people get a lot of benefit from A Course In Miracles on that. Prayers your way!
wonderful video, very well put! also such a good camera ! is it a canon?
Yeah I think that was shot on a canon g7xii
Blessings
I just finished the letting go book and it was the best thing I read this year, but still didn't get the technique , do you recommend any guided meditation or other books that can help me understand it better ?
I would recommend reading his other books. You can start with Power vs Force, then Eye of the I, then I: Reality and Subjectivity. So good
Hello Farah, This book is life-changing and the best of its kind. If you want to learn more about this technique which is also called "Releasing". Check out the "Release technique" and the "Sedona method". Both of these teachings and the letting go technique comes from a man called Lester Levenson but sadly Hawkins fails to give him credit in the letting go book.
When emotions arise (e.g. anger, sadness, pity, shame, grief), I’ll do any combination of the following.
- Hit it with awareness
- Feel it fully
- Say “it’s not me”
- Get curious about it
- Observe and locate the sensations
- Surrender into acceptance
- Give it my full attention
- Acknowledge there is no free will anyway
- Notice that they are internal to me and not “out there”
I hope this helps.
Thanks I have been looking for more on this, as the "how to" isn't really addressed in Letting Go.
Maria Meiners it does, but the problem is that just by thinking “how to”, you’re still hanging to it
@@npi8612 so you just say "let go" and it is?
MariaPreneur you let the energy run, without calling it any names, trying to make it different, judging it nor trying to reason about why you are having that feeling/sensation nor feeling guilty about it. You just ask God for help to surrender to it. It normally rises and comes down. There could be total silence and stillness. But you don't think about what's happening or what's going to happen. You do nothing. Your focus is on the sensation and not on the thoughts about it. If anything, you ask for more of it so we can get it over with but you are nit impatient about it either. You just SURRENDER. You can't die. Death is impossible. There is nothing to fear. God takes care of all so don't worry. Be fearless to fear. Don't care about it. Trust the unknown.
What does the ego get out of feeling guilt , shame or regret?
Well there is a lot to unpack there and it would probably depend on your situation. I will say something about guilt. Guilt could be the ego's way of punishing you. When you are guilty it is a painful feeling that you can wallow in. It is very juicy. The ego gets to have a field day criticizing and shaming you over what you did and how it was wrong. So to answer your question on that, I think that the ego craves significance, attention, and control over your life. Guilt is a great way to achieve that and again, there is likely a sick, inner ego satisfaction that it gets out of torturing you with the guilt. Hope this helps
The ego get's your attention on believing it exists and it is you, the thinking mind. Negativity is what the ego feeds on. It's a learned software program that creates the illusion of separation. Don't give it attention. You are not your body/mind.
Hi Calum, no sorry I don t get it, what juice would I get to satisfy my ego when Im angry on someone? It just makes me suffer
Hey man, great video!
I just came out a very dark and haaard time in my life and i decided to totaly change my life and leave all bad things behind and only let good the stuff stay in my life, so i did a lot of research on meditation, semen retention and i started radicly bonding with God more and more and your videos are quite helpful and i love your energy. I concider buying that book for sure.
Do you have any other books that are worth reading, books that go into like positive thinking, meditation, anything that has to do with what i like to call "life progression".
Bless you my friend!
Eyyyy, awesome comment and glad to hear you are doing well. Anything by David R. Hawkins is lit. I also feel inspired to recommend anything by Brian Tracy to you. He does not do spiritual stuff but it is very much along the lines of life progression and how to actually accomplish the dreams you have. Also I am actually currently writing a book myself on Retention. Within about a week I will be dropping a cool video to have guys join a free 21 day experiment and I would love to have you on there broski. Cheers!
@@calumx Nice dude! im gonna read it for sure! Semen retention is amazing! I feel like i can do anything and i am so confident that it olmost is overconfident but i love it, and while im not looking for a relationship, the female attraction is big and fun its like they can smell it! But thats just a extra, the most beautiful part about semen retention is just the way you feel, im really looking forward to later stages of SR, maybe someday il get superpowers or something hahaha :D and yeah for sure, id love to join the experiment!
I can definitely relate to your story! I highlyyyy recommend Radical Forgiveness by Colin Tipping! It helped me a lot and will help you as well. Take care man! 💪😀
i buy the e book, but i forgot to read it i, thanks for remind us.
Arman is correct. It was a manuscript that was written in the 1980s and published with the help of Fran Grace. You can tell where she filled in the gaps. Check out my channel.
Thanks for the video post!
Which Satsang has the most helpful info on the "letting go" technique?
I noticed there are 8 in the series and they are 4-6 hours each.
Was there one in particular that touched on the technique?
Thanks!
None of the satsangs are focused on the letting go techniques. They are all really epic and are just people asking questions and him responding. Some questions are good, some are not but there is so much to take away from them. If I remember correctly Satsang 2 was my favorite. Enjoy!
Can you please tell the name of the music playing in the background? :)
I am actually not sure of the name of the song. But I got it from Artlist
I really enjoyed the book but i feel like he didn't explain well enough the practical letting go method. Like exactly, how do I let go?
omni 1 I’m only about fifty pages in and I can see why this would be confusing beginning this work. Essentially, it boils down to contemplating into the component parts of a negative experience (pain, rejection, frustration, disapproval, etc.) and then giving those up to a higher power to be cleared or integrated. So 1) identify the shit 2) break it down into all underlying emotional states and 3) give it up in surrender 4) wipe your hands and go about your day. Hope that helps!
This helps so much man, thank you!
What “juice” do you think my ego gets out of jealousy? For instance, if I’m jealous of a sexual relationship between a friend and another friend.
I was wondering the same thing. I think when I get jealous of a friend I try to counsel myself by thinking of ways my life is better than theirs. Then I guess that’s the “juice”... twisted :/
@@amaraLoveLife Hey Amara. I think you're spot on. Any "juice" is always ego-based, and has to have one person as "superior" or "inferior." I believe as we allow ourselves to feel the juice and let go of it, we are able to move up to more win-win and non-comparative thinking.
I had a gut-wrenching evening dealing with my jealousy (strong stomach pains and intense heartache), but by allowing the feelings and not trying to numb them, a strong sense of peace did come over me.
I think we can use all these feelings as doorways to emotional freedom!
It's not always easy tho, that's for sure!!
The juice of dependence on another for a source of a payoff. The “getting,” of a satisfaction from the exclusiveness being interfered. The victimizing of how I suffer because I’m at a loss without a person I attributed special qualities to to make me happy. Owning that projection of completeness by needing another person. A perceived lack can be a frustration, anger. “How I lack but they get what I want,” is a way of having a very definite attachment and in some way to control that outcome, even a never expressed to the others and only quietly felt. The ego juices it by dropping responsibly for its projection of that sexual relationship. What would happen if you had that sexual relationship? Would there not be at times a fear of loss of it? You can see letting go of those fears and resistances to feeling uncomfortable about bad feelings can greatly lessen anxiety. The letting go if done continuously becomes more and more subtle and whole areas of life open up with unthought of freedom. That is not to say pain wouldn’t be felt by the ego at someone you like being in an already sexual relationship, but hey maybe you’ll have a chance with someone else. Negative emotions are common after all aren’t they? What do you expect of yourself? You’re not a spiritual master so why guilt yourself about it?
But we gotta be honest here. Even if you are directly focussing on the craving itself, f.a. security, it usually takes a lot of time (still individuall) and its not released in a second. It sounded like it was a pretty fast way to do it. But im doing it exactly like this for months with only one craving and its still there. How long does it take for you to realse a real deep craving?
Yeah it varies but I think that the deepest stuff can take a very long time. What to do other than let go? We are here for a lifetime to work through this stuff.
Where can we find his records??!?!

I,,, know,,,, who,,,, can,,,, help,,,, you,,,, w,,h,, a,, t,,z,, z,, +1-2-0-4-5-0-0-1-6-6-2..
get your ex back or restore someone you love
Does anyone know of a RUclipsr discussing this who's not a cis white male? I'd love to hear a different voice.
I feel like somethings are not fair although they aren’t hurting anyone I’m just jealous of not being able to control the situations visions play in my head although I don’t know the whole truth some of it it’s true ,,, helpppp
I can't think of a pay off for anxiety and fear :(
It is making your ego feel safe. In a weird way. Your ego thinks "if I feel afraid of this I will protect myself from it." Just a thought. And I consider anxiety to be resistance to an uncomfortable sensation. So for anxiety you just have to feel it fully without resisting. Meditation is really helpful for that.
@Brad Gantt If there is no functional difference between anxiety and excitement, then it doesn't strictly follow that "anxiety in the presence of actual danger can be life-preserving", no? The functional transformations you mention deserve that credit sooner.
Doesnt it just mean that you let the feeling come up, let it be there and then let it go ... basically you let it stay there as long as it wants to stay ...
because most people avoid negative feelings (do something to get rid of them or similar) or act them out
Yeah and you confront it. So you feel it fully and sit with it. Rather than letting it be there and not really feeling it.
This is exactly the objective of islam
nice But go straight to the source...Hawkins learned everything from Lester Levenson..the sedona method...he taught hawkins all about letting go! Just look up Lester Levenson! happy new year
Neutrality.. must... get...
lol
If David Hawkins replies he would say ,even this want of neutrality get over it and let it go Freedom
It is not easy to identify what your ego is getting out of it
That depends on the situation. Sometimes it is very easy-that is if you are willing to be very honest to yourself and to admit for example that you (a.k.a. the ego) can be a *real* asshole! 😃
Jesus Christ is the true solution.
