Dr. David Hawkins

• Without compassion little of significance is
  ever accomplished in human endeavor. We may
  generalize to the greater social context from
  individual therapies, wherein the patient cannot
  be truly cured or fundamentally healed until he
  invokes the power of compassion both for himself
  and others. At that point the healed may become a
  healer.

INTRODUCTION

• How privileged we are to understand so well the
  divine paradox that strength rises from weakness,
  that humiliation goes before resurrection that
  pain is not only the price but the very
  touchstone of spiritual rebirth. Knowing it's
  full worth and purpose, we can no longer fear
  adversity, we have found prosperity where there
  was poverty, peace and joy have sprung out of the
  very midst of chaos. Great indeed, our
  blessings!  Bill Wilson

Letter to Bill From Carl Jung

• Dear Mr. WilsonYour letter has been very
  welcome indeed.I had no news from Roland H.
  anymore and often wondered what has been his
  fate. Our conversation which he has adequately
  reported to you had an aspect of which he did not
  know. The reason that I could not tell him
  everything was that those days I had to be
  exceedingly careful of what I said. I had found
  out that I was misunderstood in every possible
  way. Thus I was very careful when I talked to
  Roland H. But what I really thought about was the
  result of many experiences with men of his
  kind.His craving for alcohol was the
  equivalent, on a low level, of the spiritual
  thirst of our being for wholeness, expressed in
  medieval language the union with God.

6
Letter to Bill From Carl Jung

• How could one formulate such an insight in a
  language that is not misunderstood in our
  days?The only right and legitimate way to such
  an experience is that it happens to you in
  reality and it can only happen to you when you
  walk on a path which leads you to higher
  understanding. You might be led to that goal by
  an act of grace or through a personal and honest
  contact with friends, or through a higher
  education of the mind beyond the confines of mere
  rationalism. I see from your letter that Roland
  H. has chosen the second way, which was, under
  the circumstances, obviously the best one.I am
  strongly convinced that the evil principle
  prevailing in this world leads the unrecognized
  spiritual need into perdition, if it is not
  counteracted either by real religious insight or
  by the protective wall of human community. An
  ordinary man, not protected by an action from
  above and isolated in society, cannot resist the
  power of evil, which is called very aptly the
  Devil. But the use of such words arouses so many
  mistakes that one can only keep aloof from them
  as much as possible.

7
Letter to Bill From Carl Jung

• These are the reasons why I could not give a full
  and sufficient explanation to Roland H., but I am
  risking it with you because I conclude from your
  very decent and honest letter that you have
  acquired a point of view above the misleading
  platitudes one usually hears about
  alcoholism.You see, "alcohol" in Latin is
  "spiritus" and you use the same word for the
  highest religious experience as well as for the
  most depraving poison. The helpful formula
  therefore is spiritus contra spiritum.Thanking
  you again for your kind letterI remainYours
  sincerelyC. G. Jung

ST MATTHEW 814

• O HOW NARROW IS THE DOOR AND HOW DIFFICULT IS
  THE ROAD WHICH LEADS TO LIFE, AND FEW ARE THOSE
  WHO ARE FOUND ON IT.

9
ST LUKE 1821

• KINGDOM OF GOD
• NEITHER WILL THEY SAY, BEHOLD, IT IS THERE! OR,
  BEHOLD, IT IS THERE! FOR BEHOLD, THE KINGDOM OF
  GOD IS WITHIN YOU.

10
VOICE OF GOD

• THE VOICE OF GOD IS INFINITE SILENCE
• INFINTE SILENCE IS THE SOURCE OF ALL THAT EXISTS
• BECOME AWARE OF THE SILENCE BY REALIZING IT IS
  THERE
• STAYING AWARE OF THE SILENCE IS CENTERING

11
ORIGINS OF ADDICTIONS AND EMOTIONAL SICKNESS
(SUFFERING)

• BELIEF THAT OUR PERSONALITY IS THE ESSENCE OF WHO
  WE ARE
• BELIEF THAT HAPPINESS IS OUTSIDE THE SELF
• INABILITY TO STAY CONSCIOUSLY IN THE MOMENT
• PERSONAL AND MATERIAL ATTACHMENTS

12
ORIGINS OF ADDICTIONS AND EMOTIONAL SICKNESS
(SUFFERING)

• Think of the physical , biological brain as a
  large computer (hardware)
• Throughout life (especially early life) this
  computer is programmed with software
• Software (mind or Ego) consists of all of
  opinions, motives and positionalities that one
  possesses
• Each time you remove a software program you get
  closer to TRUTH (SELF)

13
BELIEF THAT OUR PERSONALITY IS THE ESSENCE OF WHO
WE ARE

• Notion of Original Sin creates idea that some
  original mistake causes later suffering
• Sense of guilt or of being wounded
• Victim/Perpetrator
• Victim/Survivor
• Have done something wrong in the past and now
  must suffer/be punished for it
• Guilt is one of the chief teaching techniques
• Try not to make mistakes to prove not bad
• Buddhism-problems are impermanent and seen as
  opportunities

14
BELIEF THAT OUR PERSONALITY IS THE ESSENCE OF
WHO WE ARE

• HINDUISM (ADVAITA VEDANTA)
• ONLY ONE REAL THING IN THE UNIVERSE
• ALL ELSE IS ILLUSION (MAYA)
• ATMANSOULSELF
• BRAHMANGOD
• ATMANBRAHMAN
• THE ESSENCE OF SELF IS GOD (IMMANENT)
• ESSENCE IS THE GIFT OF LIFE ENERGY

15
SPIRITUAL GROWTH AND HEALING

• The more one is in touch with SELF
• The more SELF can constellate SELF in others
• THIS RECONTEXUALIZES PATIENTS REALITY SO THEY
  EXPERIENCE HEALING ON A LEVEL THAT TRANSCENDS THE
  EGO (Source of all Suffering)
• THE COMPASSION OF THE PRESENCE (SELF) ALLOWS FOR
  THE FEELING OF LOVE PRODUCING PEACE WITHIN AND
  REMOVING INNER AGONY

16
BELIEF THAT HAPPINESS IS OUTSIDE THE SELF

• TWO PROMISES OF THE EGO
• Egos products are valuable because they have
  meaning
• Content is necessary for survival and IT WILL
  BRING HAPPINESS
• SEEKS HAPPINESS OUTSIDE OF SELF
• HAPPINESS IS A PART OF ONES ESSENCE-IT HAS
  ALWAYS BEEN THERE

17
INABILITY TO STAY CONSCIOUSLY IN THE MOMENT
THE CONCEPT OF TIME

• PAST PRESENT
  FUTURE
• GUILT
  FEAR

18
INABILITY TO STAY CONSCIOUSLY IN THE MOMENT

• THE FARTHER AWAY ONE IS FROM THE MOMENT THE MORE
  THE SUFFERING
• FEAR (ANXIETY) IS GENERALLY ABOUT THE FUTURE
• GUILT AND SHAME (DEPRESSION) IS GENERALLY ABOUT
  THE PAST

19
PERSONAL AND MATERIAL ATTACHMENTS

• BUDDHISM-ALL SUFFERING IS DUE TO ATTACHMENTS AND
  IGNORANCE
• ATTACHMENTS TO
• PEOPLE
• THINGS (FOOD, DRUGS, WORK)

ALCOHOL/DRUGS
WORK

THE LIGHT

• IN THE BEGINNING
• QUANTUM (NON-LINEAR) PHYSICS
• PERSONAL
• LEFT AND RIGHT BRAIN
• DUALITY AND NON DUALITY
• Adam/Eve
• GOD AS IMMANENT, OMNIPRESENT AND TRANSCENDENT

21
THE ZERO POINT FIELD

• HUMAN BEINGS AND ALL LIVING THINGS ARE A
  COALESCENCE OF ENERGY IN A FIELD OF ENERGY
  CONNECTED TO EVERY OTHER THING IN THE WORLD. THIS
  PULSATING ENERGY FIELD IS THE CENTRAL ENGINE OF
  OUR BEING AND OUR CONSCIOUSNESS, THE ALPHA AND
  THE OMEGA OF OUR EXISTENCE.
• McTAGGART, THE FIELD, PROLOGUE, pg xxiii

22
THE ZERO POINT FIELD

• THE FIELD IS OUR HEART, OUR BRAIN, OUR MEMORY AND
  MUST BE TAPPED INTO TO HEAL
• IT IS THE ONLY REALITY. EINSTEIN
• NEWTON, DESCARTES AND SCIENCE CANNOT EXPLAIN
  SUBJECTIVITY-THE REALM OF CONSCIOUSNESS AND
  SPIRITULITY
• WRONG PARADIGM

23
THE ZERO POINT FIELD

• PIONEERS OF QUANTUM PHYSICS TURNED TO PHILOSOPHY
  AND SPIRITUALITY TO EXPLAIN WHAT THEY HAD FOUND
• PAULI- ARCHTYPES AND THE QABBALAH
• BOHR- TAO AND CHINESE PHILOSOPHY
• SCHRODINGER- HINDU PHILOSOPHY
• HEISENBERG- PLATONIC THEORY OF ANCIENT GREECE

24
THE ZERO POINT FIELD

• THEY HAD DISCOVERED THAT OUR INVOLVEMENT WITH
  MATTER WAS CRITICAL
• SUBATOMIC PARTICLES EXISTED IN ALL POSSIBLE
  STATES UNTIL OBSERVED BY US
• LIVING THINGS ARE PACKAGES OF QUANTUM ENERGY
  CONSTANTLY EXCHANGING INFORMATION WITH THE FIELD
• COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS
• HOLY SPIRIT
• LIFE FORCE

25
CHAOS THEORY

• Vast world of connectedness in both visible and
  invisible domains
• Based on discovery of inherent organized patterns
  (attractors)
• Edward Lorenz (1960) plotted temperature, air
  pressure and wind direction
• Lorenzs Butterfly (first attractor pattern)

26
LAW OF SENSITIVE DEPENDENCE ON INITIAL CONDITIONS

• Every subtle change effects everything else
• Every event connected to every other event.
• A small change at the start can have a large
  impact at the end.

27
HEISENBERG UNCERTAINTY PRINCIPLE

• You can either know a particles position or
  momentum, but not both
• Any attempt to observe (measure) the electron
  alters it
• There is no such ting as an independent observer
  (objectivity)
• Intention influences outcome

28
JOHN VON NEUMANN FORMULA

• The effect on a physical world by the intention
  of a human observer
• Action of the conscious observer will lead to one
  of two possible feedback responses
• Yes-collapse of wave form
• Not yes

29
HOLOGRAPHIC Paradigm

• David Bohm- A hologram represents both a visible
  (unfolded or explicate order) reality and an
  invisible (enfolded or implicate order) reality
• Every point contains the whole
• The appearance of the hologram changes based on
  the viewpoint of the observer
• Implies an unseen realm that governs the
  observable world

William Blake, Auguries of Innocence

• To see a world in a grain of sand,
• And a heaven in a wildflower,
• Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
• And eternity in an hour

• IT IS A FACT OF NEUROSCIENCE THAT EVERYTHING WE
  EXPERIENCE IS ACTUALLY A FIGMENT OF OUR
  IMAGINATION. Although our sensations feel
  accurate and truthful, they do not necessarily
  reproduce the physical reality of the outside
  world. Of course, many experiences in daily life
  reflect the physical stimuli that enter the brain.

33

• But the same neural machinery that interprets
  actual sensory inputs is also responsible for our
  dreams, delusions and failings of memory. In
  other words, the real and the imagined share a
  physical source in the brain. SO TAKE A LESSON
  FROM SOCRATES ALL I KNOW IS THAT I KNOW
  NOTHING.

LEFT/RIGHT BRAINJILL BOLTE-TAYLOR

• Right Hemisphere-Parallel Processor
• Left Hemisphere-Serial Processor
• Communicate through the Corpus Collosum
• 300 million axonal fibers
• Each hemisphere thinks differently and care about
  different things

35
RIGHT HEMISPHERE

• The Present Moment-Right here and now
• Thinks in pictures and symbols
• Receives sensory information that allows us to
  understand what the moment feels like, smells
  like and tastes like
• Sensory collage
• Connects to the energy all around us
• We are energy beings connected to everything
  through the consciousness of our right hemisphere

36
LEFT HEMISPHERE

• Linear and methodical
• All about the past and the future
• Takes the collage of the present moment and
  categorizes and organizes the informational
  details
• It then associates this information with what we
  have learned from the past and projects it into
  the future

37
LEFT HEMISPHERE

• Thinks in language
• It is the ongoing chatter in the brain
• It is calculating intelligence (survival and
  gain)
• It says, I am
• This separates us from everything else
• The Experiencer
• Ego
• Animal brain heritage

38
LEFT/RIGHT BRAIN

• If disconnected from the brain chatter that
  connects us to the outer world the mind is silent
• Lose the complications of the past and future and
  become overwhelmed by the peacefulness of the
  moment
• The more time we spend in the inner circuitry of
  our right hemisphere the more peace we project
  into the world

  COGNITION AND BEHAVIOR
• EMOTION IS MEDIUM IN WHICH PRIMARY INTERPERSONAL
  INFORMATION IS TRANSMITTED

41
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• RECOGNITION AND EXPRESSION OF EMOTION
• NONVERBAL EMOTIONAL EXPRESSION
• RH TO RH AFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION EQUALS THE

  APPRAISES LIFE EXPERIENCES AND RESPONDS ACCORDING
  TO ITS SCHEME OF INTERPRETATION

42
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• ONE UNCONSCIOUS MIND COMMUNICATES WITH ANOTHER
  UNCONSCIOUS MIND
• RH RESPONDS QUICKLY TO ALL STIMULI

45
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• EMOTIONAL AVAILABLILITY OF CAREGIVER IN INTIMACY
  SEEMS TO BE THE CENTRAL GROWTH PROMOTING FACTOR
  IN EARLY REARING EXPERIENCE
• CAREGIVER MAXIMIZES POSITIVE AFFECT AND MINIMIZES
  NEGATIVE AFFECT
• PROMOTES INCREASED TOLERANCE FOR POSITIVE AND
  NEGATIVE AFFECT (AFFECTIVE RANGE)

46
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• THE BROADER THE RANGE OF EMOTIONS THAT A CHILD
  EXPERIENCES THE BROADER WILL BE THE EMOTIONAL
  RANGE OF THE SELF THAT DEVELOPES
• THERAPEUTIC ALLIANCE
• THERAPISTS FACILITATING BEHAVIORS COMBINE WITH
  THE PATIENTS CAPACITY FOR ATTACHMENT TO PERMIT
  DEVELOPMENT OF ALLIANCE (PRIMARY COMPONENT OF
  EMOTIONAL BOND)

47
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• THERAPEUTIC ALLIANCE (CONTINUED)
• KEY IS HOW TO BE SUBJECTIVELY WITH PATIENT
  ESPECIALLY DURING AFFECTIVELY STRESSFULL MOMENTS
• UNCONSCIOUS INTERSUBJECTIVE PROCESSES INCLUDE
  EMPATHY, IDENTIFICATION WITH OTHERS AND
  SELF-AWARENESS
• FACIAL EXPRESSIONS CAN BE APPRAISED BY THE RH
  WITHIN 30 MILLISECONDS
• MAY TAKE HOURS TO DAYS TO GET INTENSE REACTION
  BACK TO BASE LINE

48
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• MUST BE ATTENTIVE TO LH PATIENT VERBALIZATIONS IN
  ORDER TO OBJECTIVELY DIAGNOSE AND UNDERSTAND
  PATIENTS DYSREGULATED SYMPTOMS
• BUT ALSO ATTENTIVE INTERSUBJECTIVELY TO
  RELATIONAL TRANSACTIONS (REFLECT EMOTIONS SUCH AS
  APPROVAL/DISAPPROVAL, SUPPORT, HUMOR AND FEAR)
• FACIAL EXPRESSIONS
• BODY POSTURE
• TONE AND TEMPO OF VOICE

49
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• RIGHT SIDE OF FACE (LH)-SOCIALLY CONSCIOUS
  CONTENT, SOCIALLY APPROPRIATE CLUES
• LEFT SIDE OF FACE (RH)-HIDDEN PERSONALIZED
  FEELINGS, IMPLICIT UNCONSCIOUS CONTENT
• IN HEIGHTENED AFFECTIVE MOMENT THE EMPATHIC
  THERAPISTS RH CAN REGULATE PATIENTS DYSREGULATED
  RH

50
RIGHT HEMISPHERE (RH)

• CARL ROGERS (1986)
• AS A THERAPIST, I FIND THAT WHEN I AM CLOSEST TO
  MY INNER, INSTINCTIVE SELF, WHEN I AM SOMEHOW IN
  TOUCH WITH THE UNKNOWN IN ME, WHEN PERHAPS I AM
  IN A SLIGHTLY ALTERED STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS IN
  THE RELATIONSHIP, THEN WHATEVER I DO SEEMS FULL
  OF HEALING.

51
Left/Right Brain

• Right superior parietal lobule may play a key
  role in representing spatial information
• Allocentric-other centered
• Left parietal area may be involved in more
  egocentric representations
• Egocentric-self-centered

52
RIGHT BRAIN CONSCIOUSNESS

• Part of a greater universe
• Breathing
• Foods containing tryptophan (milk, bananas and
  turkey)
• Rapidly elevate serotonin to help concentration
  and feeling of calm
• Stay away from high level carbohydrates
• Immediately converted into sugar so spike
  sugar/insulin response with lethargic rebound

53
RIGHT BRAIN CONSCIOUSNESS

• Skin-our largest organ
• Take a shower and feel the water
• Massage
• Feel the sunshine on your cheeks
• Avoid negative energy
• Pay attention to how people, places and things
  feel to you.
• Some PPT will drain your energy

56
YAWNING

• Evokes activity in PERCUNEUS, a tiny structure
  hidden within the folds of the parietal lobe
• PERCUNEUS INVOLVED IN
• Social awareness and creation of feelings
• Consciousness, self-reflection and memory
  retrieval
• Yawning relaxes you and brings a state of
  alertness
• Improves cognitive functioning

69
ATTRACTOR FIELDS

• CONSCIOUSNESS IS ENTRAINED BY A CALIBRATED LEVEL
  OF CONSCIOUSNESS WHICH PREVAILS AS A HIDDEN
  ATTRACTOR FIELD
• WHAT APPEARS TO BE RANDOM OR UNCONNECTED
  OCCURENCE IS ACTUALLY AN INVISIBLE ORGANIZING
  ENERGY FIELD OF INFLUENCE AFFECTING THE
  OCCURRENCE OF PHENOMENA WITHIN EACH LEVEL OF
  CONSCIOUSNESS

70
ATTRACTOR FIELDS

• Brain is a tool where linear and non-linear
  meet
• Brain is a receiver that converts unseen energy
  into SOUND AND THOUGHT FORMS
• Ones level of consciousness serves as an
  attractor field for energy with the same
  attractor energy

71
ATTRACTOR FIELDS

• Think of an attractor field as a light spectrum
• To people in the blue rangeeverything looks blue
• To people in the yellow rangeeverything looks
  yellow
• Tend to attract people of same range and deny
  other ranges

72
ATTRACTOR FIELDS

• Each attractor field presents an array of choices
  (INTENTIONAL SET)
• THE MORE YOU MAKE A PARTICULAR CHOICE THE MORE
  LIKELY YOU ARE TO MAKE THAT CHOICE AGAIN
• EXAMPLE-BEING KIND TO EVERYONE INCLUDING YOURSELF
• THE LEVELS OF CONSCIOUSNESS (LOC) IS AN
  INDEPENDENT FIELD THAT CONTAINS CONCORDANT
  THOUGHT FORMS ATTUNED TO THE FREQUENCY OF THE
  ATTRACTOR FIELD

73
ATTRACTOR FIELDS

• THOUGHT FORMS LEAD TO ASSOCIATED EMOTIONS AND
  BEHAVIORS (INFLUENCE OF LOC OF BOTH PERSON AND
  SOCIETY)
• We call this ME
• EACH LOC HAS ITS POSITIONALITIES (BASIC
  POSTULATES AND BELIEFS)
• EXAMPLE-RIGHT AND WRONG SIDE, CAUSE FOR
  EVERYTHING, SOMEONE IS TO BLAME

74
LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS

• Correlates With
• Perceptual and intellectual positionalities

• Influences Physiology

76
LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS

• WHAT IS THE
• PURPOSE OF LIFE?
• Determined by LOC and brain physiology

77
LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS

• WHAT IS TRUTH?
• What the ordinary mind presumes to be truth is
  actually a processed composite of thousands of
  variables of differing degrees with superimposed
  editing, selection, distortion, and
  emotionalized, preferential evaluation.

THE EGO (small self) AND THE SELF

• THE SELF
• THE EVOLUTION OF UNCONSCIOUS PROCESSES
• THE EGO
• MOTIVES, OPINIONS AND POSITIONALITIES
• TRANSCENDING THE IDENTIFICATION WITH SMALL SELF

80
THE SELF

• From the SELF, the small self or ego emerges
• This activates life on the linear level
• Adam and Eve
• From non-linear to linear
• Small self is involved in personal gain and
  survival
• It believes it is a separate self and calls
  itself I or Me
• Operates on an unconscious level with conscious
  products called opinions, positionalities, etc.

81
THE SELF

• The small self or ego is the experiencer
• It has a narcissistic core
• DESIRE
• PRIDE
• It gets juiced by hatred, revenge and other
  negative emotions plus Secondary Gains
• With spiritual development, movement takes place
  toward the SELF

82
EVOLUTION OF UNCONSCIOUS PROCESSES

• Plants
• PHOTOSYNTHESIS
• Animals
• NEED TO GO OUTSIDE OF SELF TO SURVIVE
• UNCONSCIOUS RULES FOR SURVIVAL
• EGO DEVELOPED AS A SURVIVAL MECHANISM

83
EGO

• Ego cannot survive without reference points
  (something outside of self)
• Self and other definitions (software)
• This is also the basis of duality
• You-Me
• Cause-Effect
• In nonduality there is no need for reference
  points
• Ramana Maharishi-Who am I?

84
EGO

• IMPERSONAL
• EVERYONES ACTS ABOUT THE SAME
• SELF-SERVING
• EGOTISTICAL
• POSITIVE GAIN
• RESULTING IN
• GUILT
• GREED
• RAGE
• JEALOUSY

ENDLESS SUFFERING
85
EGO

• SELF GIVES THE EGO (small self) ITS CAPACITY FOR
  AWARENESSS
• WITHOUT THE LIGHT OF SELF, THE EGO WOULD NOT EVEN
  KNOW OF ITS OWN EXISTENCE
• EGO REFUTES ITS SOURCE AND CLAIMS TO BE SEPARATE.
• EGO CAN ONLY ADVANCE TO THE LEVEL OF REASON AND
  INTELLECTUAL CAPACITY

86
EGO

• AT LOWER LEVELS IT TENDS TOWARD PRIDEFULLNESS AND
  CLAIMS CREDIT AND AUTHORSHIP
• INCREASED HUMILITY LESSENS THE GRIP AND ALLOWS
  FOR SPIRITUAL AWARENESS
• COMPASSION TRANSFORMS PERCEPTION INTO VISION
• SMALL SELF DISSOLVES INTO SELF AT LOC OF 600

87
Motives of the EGO
Gain and survival Powered by FEAR
88
DEALT THESE CARDS

• THE MOTIVES OF THE EGO

108
BEING HUMAN

• Brain is limited by physiology and genetics. This
  understanding leads to HUMILITY, FORGIVENESS and
  SURRENDER.
• Freud-out of guilt our animal nature is repressed
  and projected outward as CHARACTER DEFECTS
• One must master the world before one can
  transcend it.

109
HUMILITY

• The limitations of the mind
• Often cannot tell essence
• Mind left to its own will make mistakes
• Mind can only know about
• Empowering (Not a Weakness)
• Relieves the guilt that accompanies doubt and
  denial
• Egos belief that it knows Reality results in
  pride and defensiveness
• Ignorance is guarded by egocentricity

110
HUMILITY

• Opens up the door to knowledge
• Attitude of inquiry
• Sermon On The Mount (Lost/Found)
• Humility as altruism
• Not holding oneself above others
• Treating others as if they were oneself
• Leviticus 1918 Love your neighbor as yourself
• One is a studentNot on a pedestal
• The Cloud of Unknowing

111
SURRENDER

• Unresisting acceptance of something as
  inescapable
• Spiritual surrender is admitting that were not
  in control.  Its getting ourselves out of the
  way and trusting a Higher Power to guide us.
   Spiritual surrender frees us from fear and
  anger, gives us answers to difficult dilemmas,
  points us in the right direction, and grants us
  peace.  
•  

112
SURRENDER

• Surrender is not about giving up or giving in to
  the wishes of another. It is about accepting the
  moment at hand and realizing there is Perfection
  within the moment. It is the power to accept each
  moment for what it is rather than yearning for it
  to be something else. More often than not, our
  minds want us to believe that the past "should
  not" have been the way it was and that we do not
  deserve what the past gave to us or what the
  future may hold. Our mind, reflects over and over
  how it should have been or it takes us on a
  journey into the future of which we could never
  predict. In this process we loose hours and days
  of our lives to meaningless thought.

113
SURRENDER

• It is about living each moment as it comes and
  not worrying about what has taken place in the
  past or what may happen in the future. It is
  about being certain that each moment of your life
  is being lived exactly as it is supposed to be to
  learn the lessons you were brought here to learn.
  If in the state of surrender than the truest
  thoughts are always, "Thy will be done."

114
SURRENDER

• What is Spiritual Surrender? The Process of
  Releasing Attachment and Expectation
• The ability to remain unattached to results leads
  to happiness. The attachment to a certain outcome
  results in suffering.

115
SURRENDER

• Surrender invites Divine Grace
• Surrender is the process whereby the underlying
  REALITY OF THE SELF becomes progressively
  discovered as self dissolves into SELF
• Enabled by FAITH, CONVICTION and INTENTION

116
SURRENDER

• Surrender is a spiritual miracle. It teaches us
  how to see God with our eyes closed, how to talk
  to Him with our mouth shut. Fear enters into our
  being only when we withdraw our surrender from
  the Absolute.

117
PRAYER AS SURRENDER

• Supplication (also known as petitioning) is the
  most common form of prayer, wherein a person asks
  a supernatural deity to provide something, either
  for the person who is praying or for someone else
  on whose behalf a prayer of supplication is being
  made-WIKIPEDIA
• Over time the intention to control GOD is given
  up and prayer becomes a dedication or willingness
  to be a servant of GOD and a channel of HIS WILL
  (SURRENDER)

118
FORGIVENESS

• Is not the same as absolution.
• We surrender and forgive to get rid of
  resentments
• Forgiveness is the mental and/or spiritual
  process of ceasing to feel resentment,
  indignation or anger against another person for a
  perceived offense, difference or mistake, or
  ceasing to demand punishment or restitution.

119
FORGIVENESS

• To receive forgiveness from God there are three
  requirements
• Recognizing the offense itself and its admission
  before God.
• Making a commitment not to repeat the offense.
• Asking for forgiveness from God.
• If the offense was committed against another
  human being, or against society, a fourth
  condition is added
• Recognizing the offense before those against whom
  offense was committed and before God.
• Committing oneself not to repeat the offense.
• Doing whatever needs to be done to rectify the
  offense (within reason) and asking pardon of the
  offended party.
• Asking God for forgiveness.

120
SELF-FORGIVENESS

• When our actions have hurt others we need to
  forgive ourselves
• Not hold ourselves responsible for pain that
  others have caused us. Especially when it was not
  our fault or we could not change the situation.

121
GUILT

• GUILT CAN BE AN ATTEMPT TO PURCHASE SALVATION,
  MANIPULATE GOD PURCHASE FORGIVENESS BY SUFFERING
• COMES FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF A PUNISHING GOD
• IN REGARD TO PENANCE
• ASK FOR FORGIVENESS
• CHANGE YOURSELF

122
LOVE

• AND NOW ABIDE FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, THESE THREE
  BUT THE GREATEST OF THESE IS LOVE.
• 1 CORINTHIANS 1413
• LAMSA TRANSLATION
• LOVE IS NOT AN EMOTION BUT A WAY OF BEING IN THE
  WORLD

123
SIMPLE TOOLS OF GREAT VALUE

• BE KIND TO EVERYTING AND EVERYONE, INCLUDING
  ONESELF ALL OF THE TIME
• REVERE LIFE IN ALL ITS FORMS NO MATTER WHAT
• PRESUME NO ACTUAL KNOWLEDGE OF ANYTHING-ASK GOD
  TO REVEAL ITS MEANING
• INTEND TO SEE THE HIDDEN BEAUTY OF ALL THAT
  EXISTS-IT THEN REVEALS ITSELF
• FORGIVE EVERYTHING THAT IS WITNESSED AND
  EXPERIENCED NO MATTER WHAT (SOCRATES SAID MAN
  ONLY CHOOSES THE GOOD)

Elizabeth Kubler Ross,1926-2004

• And after your death, when most of you for the
  first time realize what life here is all about,
  you will begin to see that your life here is
  almost nothing but the sum total of every choice
  you have made during every moment of your life. 
  Your thoughts, which you are responsible for, are
  as real as your deeds.  You will begin to realize
  that every word and every deed affects your life
  and has also touched thousands of lives.
