Dear David Hawkins,
Your books have corroborated Truth and enlivened me.
Power vs. Force and The Eye of the I are the two I have presently read. Your words in The Eye of the I have especially seared my heart. I say your words, knowing full well that the Author is Consciousness.
I could exclaim about every chapter and the truth they resonate, including the sayings in the front of your books. Perfect.
The Eye of the I, p. 53: "God does not talk to anybody… That which is formless does not manipulate sound waves… Enlightened beings do not relate any experiences of being spoken to or verbally addressed by God. This would surmise a duality of God versus a person to whom God is speaking… Mystics attune to God by an unspoken knowingness… Messages from God are from the spiritual ego which has become dissociated and project as some 'other' reality. Occasionally, they are due to astral entities, some of whom claim 'Godship'."
Is it possible that unspoken knowingness can be "heard" as some level of subtle sound?
While reading A Course in Miracles for the fourth time, quiet messages started coming to me. They are from God within, and everything I receive rings true with everything you say. They are the same, exactly the same, except for this point of hearing God.
I very much value your vision, expression and Consciousness. Dr. Hawkins, I cannot look to any Human being to okay the truth of the messages I receive, yet I feel great responsibility, and I want to be one with you in thought and heart as well. Perhaps I have gotten caught in some of your words rather than in the meaning and intent of what you are saying. I cannot believe that there is disagreement.
You mentioned that it is rare for people to have direct experience of God because there are so few with a high enough vibration.
Yet, it is my experience and what I hear God say, that anyone who desires to hear God from within, whatever his state of consciousness, can do so.
I am impelled to share this process and so I offer workshops. I don't presume to know how to teach people to hear God, but God does know, and all who choose to come to the Godwriting workshops find that they too can hear great Godwisdom and love far beyond their individuality.
I would like to share with you a quick revealing very recent emailed dialogue about the workshop. The questioner is Carol, and I am Gloria:
Carol: How do you know it is God? What if you do not believe in God as a separate entity with separate thoughts and ideas and advice? I feel the human mind is expert at imaginings. The way I experience this whole creation is a projection of a less than fully expanded state of consciousness, a limited perception, and to project a God into this imaginary realm we inhabit and call reality is to add another layer of ignorance and call it Truth. If I say to myself, there is a God and I am speaking to him, or hearing him, that is my own mental projection.
Gloria: Who said God was a separate entity? As soon as we use language, as soon as we talk about something, we make distinctions, we make AS IF there is another. Kabir calls God the Guest. Bernie Siegel refers to God as the Inner Voice. The Bible speaks of the Still Small Voice. David Hawkins refers to God as the Presence or Consciousness. And so on. I have the impression it is everything else but God that we project.
Carol: It seems subtly dangerous to claim the words come from infinite wisdom, infinite truth…humility is missing. Ego could be prevailing, calling itself God.
Gloria: Carol, I think the opposite. I think it would be the height of egotism for an individual to claim that the wisdom and truth are his.
Carol: I am sorry to be such a skeptic. I am sure what people write at Godwriting workshops is very beautiful because they are attuning themselves to what is highest in them.
Gloria: So what are we arguing about!
Carol: Because we have been writing back and forth, it has stimulated my thinking, and last night I said mentally to God, "I think you are just a figment of my imagination," and I got back: "No, you are a figment of My imagination."
It made me laugh. My God is a Humorist first.
Along with the delight and surprise of the reply came a sense of freedom, a sudden lightening of the load of my problems, a release from my identification with them — if I am a figment of God's imagination, then there goes my so-called suffering… it evaporates into the ether.
Yes, ok, maybe there is Someone to address…maybe…
Dr. Hawkins, I am also taking the liberty of enclosing a few Heavenletters, the Heavenletter CD, and a few comments from Heaven News. The Heavenletters included are: #820, In Love; #832, Notice God Today; #842, The Song You Sing.
I shall be so glad if this letter reaches your hands.
Blessings to you for all that you are and reveal.
