Book Reviews of Transcending the Levels of Consciousness
Book Review: Most significant book to spiritual progress
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is absolutely the most significant roadmap to spiritual progress I can imagine. I have the whole series of his profound lectures (of 2004)on DVD, so I was amazed at how this book proved to further clearify! Here is a methaphor for the clearity of Dr.Hawkins guide to transending the levels of consciousness:
A few years ago, when the technology came out, my husband called me to look at how our address googled via satelite. I was stunned in perceiving how a broad view of the world became refined to the point where the roof tiles and every tree in our yard was there for all to see. This is the clearity and refinement Dr.Hawkins brings to Transcending the Levels of Consciousness.
And by the way, for any of you kinesiology sceptics out there, my suggestion is to just put that on the back-burner.(That is what I have done). Do not let anything deter you from the profound transformative power of this book.
Book Review: A True Gift from Spirit
Summary: 5 Stars
I was so inspired by this book that it was imperative that I write a review (my first ever). I believe that another reviewer mentioned that "if you are reading this, then you are likely on a spiritual path" or something to that effect, so that is my assumption... I read Power vs. Force some time ago and really enjoyed it. As a typical aspirant, you want to read more and more to satisfy your hunger for improvement on the path. This book is a real treasure and has answered MANY questions that were in my mind on how to progress on the path and calmed many of my ego spiritual fantasies about everything from becoming monastic to creating a spiritual council etc. etc.
The real joy of this book is in it's simplicity and calming affect. I've had it for < 2weeks and have read it twice. Dr. Hawkins as a spiritual teacher is a true gift from God for our times and this book is a real jewel. Gloria in Excelsis Deo!
Book Review: GPS for the Spiritual Seeker
Summary: 5 Stars
If your interests include both psychology and spirituality, this book is a perfect match. After you've absorbed it, you will know very precisely your position, the position of others, and all important waypoints on the map of consciousness. It will lead you very close to the "treasure" that you seek.
Hawkins gives us his most articulate and well-organized writing here. He provides a detailed psychoanalysis of each of the levels of consciousness, an explanation of the dualities and obstructions for each, and techniques for advancing to higher levels. Woven through the erudite and at times rather technical psychological treatment is the spiritual viewpoint. I found it useful not only for internal spiritual progress, but for better understanding the behavior and thinking of other people in my life who could help, or hinder, my progress. It's a must-read.
Book Review: Finally Connects the Dots
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have a mystic's heart and a scientist's curiosity, this is the book to connect the dots. Hawkins combines his personal experience with years of research to present a balanced and informative work. What I found most useful is the way each level is delineated and described with suggestions for how that level may be transcended. It's like standing in a national park with a giant "you are HERE sign" to give you much needed perspective for your journey. More than anything, Transcending the Levels of Consciousness inspires me to keep moving forward in my own spiritual journey with "scenes from coming attractions." It is a guidebook for stepping into your fullest potential. This book is clearly written by a Ph.D. and you may want to keep your dictionary handy.Book Review: Moving from self to Self-God Immanent
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Hawkins latest book is monumental. He reduces all of the previous spiritually derived writings throughout the ages to easily understandable language for the ordinary ego-mind. Contrary to some reviews that posit this book is for advanced spiritual devotees only, I wholeheartedly disagree. The mere reading of this work will materially advance one's LoC (level of consciousness), and simple conscious practicing of the "rules" (pg 333) will accelerate one's progress separate from the more rigorous meditative practices. These teachings about manifest reality and how it comes to be should replace all of the nonsensical "education" America provides K-12. Imagine the possibilities, if you will.
