I am grateful for this day in which to ponder being thankful.
I am grateful for all the things for which I am Thankful. I am so thankful for the other Hawkins…
Copied & Pasted is the copy of a page from Hawkins’ book, “The Eye of The I…” a page where he claims it is possible to get beyond The 12-Steps of Alcoholism…verifying that one wont do it unless they are embarking upon a Higher Consciousness with their mind. I love this page. Here is why!
Page 315 of “The Eye of The ‘I’ ” by David Hawkins, MD
There was a group of people who came at one time to the clinic to learn about kinesiology and, surprisingly, none of the reliable negative stimuli had any affect on them and they tested out to be immune to external negativity. Upon questioning, it was revealed that they were all spiritual aspirants and students who, in this particular case, had studied a spiritual course of instruction called A Course in Miracles. This discovery was important and led to a further investigation in which students who intended to do the one-year A Course in Miracles workbook were tested before starting the course and serially thereafter. By the time the students were up to about Lesson 75) they had lost their vulnerability to negative stimuli. (A Course in Miracles is based on the power of forgiveness.) This enables the replacement of the ego's perception and its dualistic positionality with truth which replaces falsehood. The critical lesson in A Course in Miracles where the student showed this shift is ‘I am only subject to what I hold in mind'. However, for this lesson to become absorbed, the preceding seventy-four lessons had to be taken daily and sequentially as prescribed. (A Course in Miracles calibrates at 600.) Another interesting observation of spiritual power is accorded by a study of the spiritual organization of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), which has an overall organizational energy field of 540 (Unconditional Love). It is a common observation that so long as the recovering person remains within the influence of that powerful energy field, they remain sober, and when they decide they are going to 'go it on their own' and leave AA, they relapse quickly. Thus, unless a participant's personal level of consciousness rises to 540 or above, their recovery depends on the spiritual power of the group itself. It is comparable to iron filings being held within a powerful electromagnetic field.
Me? I love this page. I love so many things…I love all of you. rell
