He then guides us throughout this talk on how to allow the unfolding of this Truth. He explains our predicament: We have no idea where we came from, why we are here, who we are or where we are going. We are faced with the continuous uncertainty of life, everything we cling to is attacked and undermined by doubt within ourselves. However, the Presence of God as Self is the source of one's own existence.

Dr. Hawkins begins this lecture by saying that our spirit will be where it must be as a consequence of that which it is.

And the conditions in order to reach an enlightened state are explored. We don't have to become monks or join an ashram. We can be spiritual and alive right where we are!

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.

Dr. Hawkins opens this lecture by describing his intense drive to know the core of Truth and what it took to reach Enlightenment. He speaks to us from subjective awareness that the reality of the Presence within is the absolute silence. If you can get beyond the illusion of causality, you can jump into the 500s, where you see that everything is happening as a consequence of the totality, of the Infinite Power of the Field, and that nothing is causing anything. Our belief that there is a personal "I" that is the cause of everything is the major block to realizing the Self. 

In this insightful lecture, Dr. Hawkins explains that we actually live in a sense of our own subjectivity which is coming from consciousness/awareness. He then guides us on how to become more aware of this Truth and the levels of Love, and how to be able to shift your awareness to a new paradigm from where you are to where your heart would like to be. There is a way of being in this world that is no longer dualistic. There is also a discussion on the important topics of intention, choice, prayer, surrender and perfecting the virtues as a spiritual foundation.
