PRIDE: Is it the final gateway to Consciousness?

10/30/2019

In his book Power Vs. Force, Doctor David Hawkins, MD, PhD, suggests that consciousness is organized into different levels. The problematic “levels of consciousness” are Shame, Guilt, Apathy, Grief, Fear, Desire, Anger and Pride. Do all emotional and physical disturbances arise out of thought and emotional patterns from these levels?

Dr. Hawkins’ work also describes “higher” levels of consciousness above the pride level. These levels include courage, willingness, neutrality, reason, love, joy peace and enlightenment. For those interested in consciousness and spiritual development, Dr. Hawkins books: Power Vs. Force, The Eye of the I, and I: Reality and Subjectivity are highly recommended.

The theory suggests there is a change point at the level of courage. Below the level of courage are states of consciousness that lead to suffering. At the level of courage, we have the courage to look at ourselves and recognize that we are at the source of our own suffering and we also have the potential to be at the source of creating our own joy and peace.

We now understand that they are the same thing in two different forms.
