Description: David R. Hawkins details how anyone may resolve the most crucial of all human dilemmas: how to instantly determine the truth or falsehood of any statement or supposed fact. Dr. Hawkins, who worked as a "healing psychiatrist" during his long and distinguished career, uses theoretical concepts from particle physics, nonlinear dynamics, and chaos theory to support his study of human behavior. This is a fascinating work that will intrigue readers from all walks of life! |

Review Summary: Practical Explanation of the Truth |
Date: 2008-11-19 |
|
| |
Details: This book was recommended to me time and time again, before I sat down and finally read it. I was thrilled to have another angle to the truths I was studying in many other areas.
I found Chapter 4 the most powerful and useful in my own personal life. I actually created a card in my wallet with all of the levels of consciousness written out so that I could see where I was on any given day. The utilization of this card has helped me see my way through many life challenges, and help to get me back up to the level of love and joy. The rest is still a work in progress, but I am thankful to have Hawkin's guidance to show me the way. If you want to understand human behavior, this book is a must read!

Review Summary: Power vs. Force |

Details: I highly recommend Power vs. Force, which very simply explains the power of levels of consciousness. I quote David Hawkins a number of times in my book, Managing Thought: How Do Your Thoughts Rule Your World?, and with Hawkins' permission, excerpted a table from his book on powerful vs. weak thought patterns. This book was of significant influence for me on my own path to self-awareness. There were a number of aha!s for me as I read this book. For example, up until reading this book, I approached my work and my own self-cultivation by looking for what was wrong and then working on making it right, even under the guise of continuous improvement. As a result, I missed out on the joy of my life, my work, and my expansiveness. When I learned from this book that the difference in power between a so-called bad thought and a so-called good thought was so enormous as to be beyond my comprehension, I realized how just a few powerful, constructive, loving thoughts a day could far outweigh all of my weak, non-constructive, and fearful thoughts. I realized that I could effortlessly transform my thinking and my reality by focusing on the powerful thoughts I choose to have and not the weak thoughts I don't want to have. Another aha! was that thoughts are neither good or bad--they are simply a function of viewpoint. And a very freeing lesson for me was the learning that by raising my level of consciousness, I make a difference. |

Review Summary: Borrow from the Library |
Date: 2008-10-27 |

Details: Like most of the other reviews, my opinion is mixed. Besides some of the obvious contradictions others have mentioned, there was one that really jumped out at me in the early part of the book: If people's energy really affects other people's, shouldn't you take one of the people (the tester) out of the equation and standardize things so there's no experiementer bias? Scientific method requires eliminating the bias of the researcher.
I did enjoy the book, although I'd read enough about muscle testing elsewhere and been the subject of it.
I did, indeed, borrow the book from the library and am glad I saved my money. I appreciate Dawkins' research, but his preachiness was tiresome and bordered on the dogmatic. His absolute assurance that this was THE method and that he could PROVE it, violated that most basic of scientific method tenets--you don't prove anything; you show correlation. |

Review Summary: I still can't decide if this is pseudo-religious garbage |
Date: 2008-10-27 |

Details: I think something that this book is missing is an emphasis that people actually go out and do something. Things become apparent through god, yet initiative comes from within.
I also like Transcending the Levels of Consciousness better. Both books are revelationary. Very much recommended, but not in ALL seriousness. |
