About this listen
Presented on November 18, 2006 at the Hyatt Regency Long Beach Hotel, this exciting presentation reviews basic spiritual principles from a higher level of awareness, providing expanded information for those new to the teachings of Dr. Hawkins as well as for those who have heard him speak many times.
Dr. Hawkins tells us why negative things keep occurring in our lives (and what to do about them). He talks about the role of karma; how seemingly "miraculous" events can become commonplace; how life happens spontaneously; the differences between causality and spontaneity; why the world is as it is today; and what we can do individually in relation to world peace. Dr. Hawkins describes the differences between meditation and contemplation, and how we can truly live our life like a prayer.
And, for the first time, Dr. Hawkins allocated three hours for questions from the students, all of which brought forth the presentation of more advanced information.
This lecture was sponsored by the Minnie Perkins Foundation.

Story
A set of three talks given by Dr. Hawkins. Dr. Hawkins explains the difference between sex and making love. He presents sex as an expression of the energy of aliveness and the joy of being. He discusses sex and spiritual conflict, along with guilt, religion, programming, and social belief systems. He describes low-energy and high-energy sex, how to overcome impotence and lack of response, and how to transcend desire so that one is not at the effect of it.

Story
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!"

This audiobook concludes the presentation of a long-predicted major advance in critical human knowledge. It explains the very essence of consciousness as it evolved from its primordial appearance as life on earth, on up through evolution as the human ego, and hence, the transcendence of the ego as the spiritual Reality of Enlightenment and the Presence of Divinity. The uncommon clarity and lucidity with which the highly evolved subject matter is presented facilitates the listener's understanding and comprehension.

The Eye of the I is a brilliant work that dissolves the barriers between the known and the unknown, between science and spirituality, and between the Newtonian linear paradigm of the ego and the nonlinear reality of Enlightenment. With the resolution of the self, the self shines forth and reveals one's true identity.

The now widely known map of calibrated levels of consciousness was presented in Power vs. Force in 1995 and has been translated into all the world's major languages. This was followed by The Eye of the I (2001), I: Reality and Subjectivity (2003), and Truth vs. Falsehood (2005), which explored the levels of truth reflected throughout society. Transcending the Levels of Consciousness returns to the exploration of the ego's expressions and inherent limitations and gives detailed explanations and instructions on how to transcend them.

Story
In this thorough explanation of the human ego, Dr. Hawkins points out that the difficulty with the mind is that it doesn't know the difference between that which is mental from that which "is". He explains that we can transcend the ego and reach the higher states of consciousness not by battling it, spending 30 years in psychotherapy or meditating forever, but by understanding its origin, its nature and its function. The ego then begins to dissolve on its own through compassion and acceptance because when you shine light on darkness, the darkness begins to disappear.

The energy of this audio is extremely powerful and recommended to do when one can sit comfortably and safely, as it can be incapacitating in the best possible way.

Life time of shared research, thanks
The precise depth of this life time of contemplation is amazing. Even with the hard detailed efforts Dr Hawkins put into this subject, it becomes evident each of us will comprehend things individually, based on our state of calibration. One first reading did not suffice for my comprehension, the second listen (audible) was necessary.

too much truth
Thanks to this audio book I discovered humans are in the play of Gods theater by being pushed into roles unkowingly and this perspective gives me better understanding of how and why we work. We are here just to make god happy. He is also out there to make us happy. Thats all. All that is complicated is just that life is too komplex and it takes few years of honest and hardcore research of surrounding happenings in order to realese this Truth of life. Thank you Doc and Thank you God.

A really great book
A wonderful book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man coming of age such as myself. I found this incredibly relatable to my own psychiatric work and I further highly recommend this book.
