Power Vs. Force

From Pride To Neutrality

by | Nov 26, 2017 | , ,

In Dr. David Hawkins' "map of consciousness," courage first registers at the level of 200 on an ascending logarithmic scale of creative power that goes to 1000. Master teachers like Jesus and Buddha calibrate at the top end of the "map," which Hawkins designates as Enlightenment. Just below the level courage at 200, is the energy of pride, which calibrates from 175-199. Dr. Hawkins maintains that the collective vibration of humankind globally is just above 200, after being calibrated for...

Peace In The Midst

by | Nov 13, 2017 |

I write about peace a lot. I also think about it, talk about it, meditate on it, and even write songs about it. Right now, I am in the midst of writing a book about peace.

by | Apr 6, 2011 | , ,

As long as I can remember, I have always loved cheering for the underdog. When I was a child, the cartoon series "Underdog" was one of my favorites. Anytime his love interest, Sweet Polly Purebread, was in peril, unassuming, mild mannered "Shoeshine Boy" would step into a nearby phone booth and transform into super hero "Underdog," inexplicably exploding the phone booth in the process. Speaking mostly in rhymes, and strengthened by his "Underdog Energy Vitamin Pill," which he stored in the...
