An accessible exploration of best-selling author's most famous work, The Map of Consciousness, that helps readers experience healing and transcendence.

The Map of Consciousness Explained is an essential primer on the late Dr. David R. Hawkins's teachings on human consciousness and their associated energy fields.
Using muscle testing, Dr. Hawkins conducted more than 250,000 calibrations during 20 years of research to define a range of values, attitudes, and emotions that correspond to levels of consciousness. This range of values--along with a logarithmic scale of 1 to 1,000--became the Map of Consciousness, which Dr. Hawkins first wrote about in his New York Times bestseller, Power vs. Force.
In this book, readers will gain an introduction and deeper understanding of the Map, with visual charts and practical applications to help them heal, recover, and evolve to higher levels of consciousness and energy. (less)

I’m not going to review this book. I will simply allow the authors words to reverberate in your consciousness. Quick note: All this will not mean much to you unless you know what is ‘consciousness calibration’. You can type it into Google or YouTube to find out!

Under ‘40 characteristics of integrous teachers and teachings’ [Basically, how to authenticate a true teacher or true teaching]:

“1 Universality. Truth is true at all times and places, independent of culture, personalities, or circumstances.
“3. Availability It is open to all – nonexclusive. There are no secrets to be revealed, hidden or sold, and no magical formulas or “mysteries”.
“8. No requirements or demands: There are no required memberships, dues regulations, oaths, rules, or conditions.”

Some quotes from later in the book:

“At this time in human history, not a single guidepost can be relied upon other than the kinesiologic test of the actual calibration of the level of consciousness of a teacher, organisation, or teaching. The naïve are impressed by outward piety and claims of supernatural powers, paranormal feats, fanciful titles and special “spiritual” garments. Serious spiritual students are encouraged to verify each teacher or teaching according to the calibrated list of “characteristics of integrous teachers and teachings” in Chapter 8”

Under ‘Limitations of consciousness calibration’:

“Approximately 10 percent of the population is not able to use the kinesiologic testing technique for as-yet unknown reasons. The test is accurate only if the test subjects themselves calibrate over 200 and the intension of the use of the test is integrous and also calibrates over 200”

Under ‘Disqualification’:
“Both scepticism (cal. 160) and cynicism calibrate below 200 because they reflect negative prejudgment. In contrast, true enquiry requires an open mind and honesty devoid of intellectual vanity. Negative studies of behavioural kinesiology all calibrate below 200 (usually at 160), as do the investigators themselves […] That even famous professors can and do calibrate below 200 may seem surprising to the average person […] The failure of investigators who themselves, or by faulty research design, calibrate below 200 confirms the truth of the very methodology they claim to disprove. They “should” get negative results, so they do – which, paradoxically, proves the accuracy of the test…”

Genius.

11 highlights
Excerpts from Power Vs Force, Devotional Nonduality, the talks and lectures, and helpful lists from the other books, combined with helpful clarifying reminders from Doc’s work.

In many ways it is the ideal introduction to Hawkins’ work.

Overall, a yin feminine path of surrender, beingness, introspection, inner responsibility for the projections of the world, kindness, humor, gratitude, caution, and overall conservative spirituality.

Let Go and Let God

My journey with this book has been one of calm, tranquility and serenity. It is so relieving to realize that the world is perfect as it is. The dissolution of the personal will and the emergence of spiritual will, or rather to be more precise, the revelation of the spiritual will brings to mind an extreme state of peace, love, confidence in the Divine and absolute humility that all the good that one does is not actually done by one's self but rather by God.

HIGHLY recommend. Savor this one for as long as you can. Fascinating information on conscious levels. If personal growth and being a better human as well as understanding the depths of hell we all sometimes pass through is of interest to you, you’ll love this book. I started with a sample to know if it would resonate with me!

Some fascinating material in here but now i understand why so many people downvoted it on audible, tho it was nice to hear his laugh, some of it was just inaudible or difficult to make out, Interesting but would have preferred to read it. I'd definitely read any of his books i could get free. (less)

Excellent Primer for Hawkins Students

In this book Fran does an excellent job of editing Dr. Hawkins works and putting them into a single volume that introduces new students to the vast spiritual work done by Doc. This is also a great read for existing students.

5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive and cohesive 'greatest hits' overview of the work (and GREAT eBook formatting!)
Reviewed in Australia on 5 November 2020

As far as I understand, this is a compilation work that sources from Doc's various books, as well as lectures and audio works that aren't otherwise featured in written form.

If you're well versed in the work of Dr. Hawkins, then a lot of stuff will be repeated, but I think it is all still presented in a highly valuable way. The book also features a great introduction from Susan Hawkins.

One of the strengths of this book is that the kindle e-book is formatted really well. The table of contents is well structured and the tables have been formatted so that they fit and present nicely with various text and screen sizes.

It is also a 'practical' guide and has a lot of general life advice for success, health and wellbeing.

As we navigate the world and its uncertain events, this is an amazing book to better understand yourself, others and the world we live in, based on our levels of consciousness. We look for inner peace and love in external circumstances, desires, addictions but it's all within us.
