The essence of all levels of consciousness below 200 are destructive to life, and therefore anything that originates there has a weakening and deleterious effect.įrom 200 and onward, everything is positive, life-supporting, and with increasing degrees of love. The difference is not just of the content of words and ideas, but of context. The map shows us that they originate from entirely different levels of consciousness.

It examines consciousness from the inside out to reveal that the way we see world depends on our own innate consciousness.įor example, a fearful person tends to see oneself, the life-view, the God-view, emotional states, etc, very differently from a person who comes from a place of lovingness and trust. The map of consciousness is where it begins. Hawkins’ fundamental contribution to human understanding. Replacing this chasm between the two worlds, between perception and essence, with all-encompassing context is Dr. Often, we confuse the world of our perception for the world as it is, or Res extensa. Or what philosophers called Res interna (cogitans), or the world as we think it is. Our beliefs, then, are formed when these guidelines, combined with education, mesh with something intrinsic to each one of us, our perception. We rely on stories, religious or otherwise, to offer us moral and ethical guidelines for living. The simplest definitions of the world, usually absorbed during childhood hinge around ‘good’ and ‘bad.’
