The Evolution of Consciousness

The Evolution of Consciousness by spiritual teacher and best-selling author Dr. David R. Hawkins offers a thorough explanation of the levels of consciousness.

In this book, renowned spiritual teacher Dr. David R. Hawkins provides an in-depth look at each level in the Map of Consciousness and how it relates in general to the whole field of consciousness. He defines what is meant by linear and nonlinear, content and context, as well as the radical state of subjectivity, awareness, and consciousness.

The Map of Consciousness is used to illuminate the understanding of the ego and our programmes, and how to be free of them. As Dr. Hawkins explains, the Map is not a hierarchy of worthiness but more like a prism that breaks up the light into different colours. Spiritual work is about making choices that move us up toward the Light.

In the second half of this book, Dr. Hawkins explores several critical areas, including:

• How to transcend positionalities
• Why just hearing certain information can be transformational
• That there is no such thing as "nothingness"
• The "Progressive Fields of Realization" and the theory of evolution
• How to disassemble the ego
• The basics of quantum mechanics

Throughout, Dr. Hawkins speaks on the emergence of positive spiritual energy that is dominating the consciousness field of mankind, with profound implications for everyone.

"The whole use of this scale, the whole use of what we learn from it is merely to support the intention on the part of everyone here to move forward in consciousness and to fulfil the human potential."
