The Scar
Summary
A mythmaker of the highest order, China Miéville has emblazoned the fantasy novel with fresh language, startling images, and stunning originality. Set in the same sprawling world of Miéville's Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning novel, Perdido Street Station, this latest epic introduces a whole new cast of intriguing characters and dazzling creations. Aboard a vast seafaring vessel, a band of prisoners and slaves, their bodies remade into grotesque biological oddities, is being transported to the fledgling colony of New Crobuzon. But the journey is not theirs alone. They are joined by a handful of travelers, each with a reason for fleeing the city. Among them is Bellis Coldwine, a renowned linguist whose services as an interpreter grant her passage - and escape from horrific punishment. For she is linked to Isaac Dan der Grimnebulin, the brilliant renegade scientist who has unwittingly unleashed a nightmare upon New Crobuzon. For Bellis, the plan is clear: live among the new frontiersmen of the colony until it is safe to return home. But when the ship is besieged by pirates on the Swollen Ocean, the senior officers are summarily executed. The surviving passengers are brought to Armada, a city constructed from the hulls of pirated ships, a floating, landless mass ruled by the bizarre duality called the Lovers. On Armada, everyone is given work, and even Remades live as equals to humans, Cactae, and Cray. Yet no one may ever leave. Lonely and embittered in her captivity, Bellis knows that to show dissent is a death sentence. Instead, she must furtively seek information about Armada's agenda. The answer lies in the dark, amorphous shapes that float undetected miles below the waters - terrifying entities with a singular, chilling mission.... China Miéville is a writer for a new era - and The Scar is a luminous, brilliantly imagined novel that is nothing short of spectacular.

Transcending the Mind Series: Emotions & Sensations
Summary
Dr. Hawkins opens this lecture with thoughts about the mind, positionality, and dedication to truth. A person has to be willing to sacrifice everything and anything for the truth. He explains how "wantingness" causes misery and that one’s point of view contributes to that state. Stating the truth usually upsets some people. He discusses the spiritual ego, our perceived faults, what to do about them in order to become "bulletproof", and what brings us joy. In contrast, he talks about hatred in the world today and the actions that come out of it. A major statement is that everything attracts to it what it already is, which debunks a lot of sociological theory. He gives examples of this in daily life and the part karma plays in it. There is a discussion of the impersonality of feelings and how we have to adjust to them, along with the temptations that besiege us as we increase our levels of consciousness. He talks about the challenges that arise when one is a proponent of Truth. Dr. Hawkins talks about causality, the paradigms of science and consciousness, the silent mind, the nature of thoughts, the ego, and the indefinable world of subjectivity. He describes the nature of resistance, the disadvantages of "labeling", how we are subject to that which we hold in mind, and how it is a demonstration of our power. He reveals how forgiveness and surrender are keys to successful spiritual work. He then explains the part intention plays in our lives, the advantages of surrendering something to God and letting go of control, and the problems that arise when we interfere with someone’s karma. The lecture concludes with Dr. Hawkins answering questions from the audience.

The Way to God: Radical Subjectivity: The 'I' of Self - February 2002
Summary
In this lecture, Dr. Hawkins provides a lot of insight about the ego, about emotions, and about being “wronged” and the grim satisfaction we get from all that. The payoff gets bigger as we evolve spiritually, and then the tempter of the ego appears to constantly test us. He explains what the source is and why it stays with us. With humor, Dr. Hawkins gives examples of the role of the ego in our lives and helps us to see how we are affected by it, what we get out of it, and where we would be without it. He also suggests that we let go of the seeming benefits of the ego for some higher purpose. Therein lies the challenge! He explains that we have to relinquish the ego in order to reach the experience of the Presence of God. Yes, that is a very frightening thought and something that we cannot understand at first, but Dr. Hawkins explains the benefits of doing so and the steps to take in order to reach that state. Part of the journey relates to faith, research, experiencing, and surrendering the known for the unknown. He shares his personal experiences with those steps, which makes it easier for us to understand. He also explains the concept of Karma and the role it plays in our lives. He discusses the decisions of the spiritual will in relation to Karma and how the two are intertwined. Dr. Hawkins talks about the nature of Creation and how, in its perfection, it guarantees absolute justice. One can refuse the sovereignty of God and choose the lower astral realms because they are karmically destined for that state. He explains this in depth, along with the concepts of incarnation and reincarnation. Somehow, we have chosen the life we are leading so we can evolve spiritually, and we now find out the truth about that.We learn how to look at our lives differently, to even find some self-respect, even though we have made errors, and how to turn this lifetime into a “plus.” He gives us tools to close the door to all regret about the past, to let go of pain, and to live in the moment. We receive understanding about the problems we face daily in our personal lives, about the dilemmas we see in the world, and the relationship with karma in all of it. Dr. Hawkins then describes the nature of consciousness, God, truth, the false concept of “opposites”, the state of transition, the duality of “cause and effect”, potentiality, personal evolution, and identification with a field of consciousness. He shares information about the physical birth of Christ and how the teachings affected mankind. He then defines the collective ego and its relation to society. He also tells how one person can undo the negativity of the world.Dr. Hawkins explains the concept of the “critical factor” and how it operates in our lives, whether on a practical, physical level, or in the world of spirituality. He also speaks about radical reality and the radical identity of the Self. At the conclusion, Dr. Hawkins answers a variety of questions from the audience that includes how to make life decisions and more.

The Way to God: Causality: The Ego's Foundation - January 2002
Summary
Dr. Hawkins introduces his first lecture in the Sedona Series with an explanation of why he wrote the book, Power vs. Force. He wanted to provide a way for people to move from the everyday linear world of black and white to the less familiar, abstract, nonlinear world without thinking they were moving into a mystical, imaginary realm. He wanted to enlarge the paradigm of reality of science so the intelligent person could comprehend the work and conclude that there was something to look at in the nonlinear domain. Dr. Hawkins talks about the shift in psychiatry in which everything has to be evidence based and how the Map of Consciousness provides that documentation, along with the response of the human being to the field of consciousness. He further explains the development of the Map of Consciousness and discusses the various levels and characteristics of human consciousness, from below 200, where everything is detrimental to life, to above 200, where that which is true, valid, pro-life, and spiritually whole contributes to life. Dr. Hawkins discusses the higher levels as well and how a true guru or teacher has to calibrate over 540, the level of Unconditional Love. He gives a brief description of what may be experienced at the levels above 540, and on up to 1,000.The world of duality is discussed and how the research seemed to bring up a polarity similar to good and evil. At first it seemed like two different worlds, but then it was found that creation is continuous and evolutionary. Also, there are no “either-or’s” but instead variations in qualities, e.g. more or less light. He further explains the Map of Consciousness and the characteristics and experiences that occur along the scale. He delves into the concepts of positionality and duality and the roles they play in our lives. He also explains how to change our perceptions. Dr. Hawkins then talks about the misunderstandings surrounding the concept of causality and the perceptual blocks they create. They prevent us from seeing what is actually going on and block our experience of the Presence of God. Spiritual awareness has to do with understanding the nature of Creation and of God. He emphasizes that it is essential for spiritual teachers to calibrate above consciousness level 200, the level of truth and courage. In the Newtonian Paradigm of reality and our society, there is a “this” causing a “that.” Consequently, becoming enlightened in this world is difficult because the mind, the ego, and feelings are barraged continuously by a paradigm of reality that is based on duality. Dr. Hawkins says that consciousness research is the only approach he knows to really investigate the reality behind the world’s teachings.He states that the purpose of the lectures is to share how we come to the knowingness of the presence of God. He talks about the nature of God in a way that is easily understood and defines the spirit, the field in which it moves, and the effect of Karma. He lets us know that life is continuous, that its source is Divinity, and provides the proof. This lecture provides the foundation for all the lectures that follow and is very helpful for understanding the advanced information. It concludes with questions from the audience being answered by Dr. Hawkins.

Transcending the Mind Series: Witnessing & Observing
Summary
In this lecture, Dr. Hawkins presents some basic ideas, such as the fact that everything happens spontaneously and that nothing causes anything. Everything is an automatic consequence of the energy field. He shows how the power of one’s intention brings about manifestation, and how potentiality becomes actuality in and of itself because of the field. He explains the use of kinesiology, why people may not believe in it, and how the infinite field of consciousness instantly registers truth. He discusses the calibratable level of consciousness at birth, its relationship to karma, karmic inheritance, and how we can undo past karma in this lifetime. Dr. Hawkins talks about love as a quality of divinity; about guilt; and about how to advance one’s level of consciousness. He explains the nature of resistance and spiritual truth. People cannot tell truth from falsehood and are simply doing what they think is good. He discusses the nature of power vs. force; that there is no opposite to truth; the nature of the Heisenberg principle and its relation to the process of intention as well as collective intention. He tells how we can uplift society by virtue of what we have become. Questions are answered at the end of the lecture and include topics such as chronic illness, unconditional love, schizophrenia, kundalini energy, the etheric brain, karma and karmic inheritance, some of the effects and benefits of doing spiritual work and being aligned with integrity, and the necessity to avoid evil and negative people.
