For the average spiritual seeker, the pathway to enlightenment often seems unclear. In this inspiring seminar, Dr. Hawkins informs us, "The enlightened state does not announce itself. You pray to God to understand the essence of divinity and love. Then in one happy moment when karmic propensities prevail, the State reveals itself." The role of karma is emphasized, for it allows us to recontextualize the seemingly unexplainable events of life. And on the power of surrendering one's personal will to God, he states, "To invoke the will of God is much different than handling something on your own!"

Dr. Hawkins begins this lecture by saying that our spirit will be where it must be as a consequence of that which it is. Everything is exactly precisely where it has brought itself through its own decision. He states: "There is nobody paddling the canoe except yourself!" However, with the progression of consciousness, the "I" is less and less limited and ultimately becomes the source of Knowingness itself.

In this illuminating presentation, Dr. David Hawkins reveals and elaborates on the very purpose of human life. He sheds light on some fundamental questions such as: Are we body or spirit? Why are we in this world? He also discloses the enormous power of just a few beings at higher consciousness levels, and their astounding effect on the entire planet. And you’ll enjoy a thought-provoking dialogue between Dr. Hawkins and his wife, Susan, on living in the present. "Without something to think about, the mind would go silent," states Dr. Hawkins.

In this enlightening presentation, the nature of true freedom is discussed and revealed. You will learn about the one place where you can realize freedom, and also, how you can transcend the experience of not being free. In addition, insights into the fallacy of the "great and wonderful me" are explored. And what human limitation that jeopardizes one’s spiritual evolution are most people willing to die for? This is something every spiritual student needs to know!

Reason and faith are paradigms that are poles apart, reflecting vastly different attitudes from which one looks at the world. Reason is linear content (conflict, left brain), while faith is nonlinear context (coherence, right brain). In this seminar, Dr. Hawkins demonstrates the contrast between these paradigms, pointing out that they are completely different processes for synthesizing information. He reveals the step that switches us from the left brain to the right brain.
