Power vs. Force: The Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior (Power vs. Force, #1)

by David R. Hawkins

Advanced theoretical physics demonstrated that everything in the universe is subtly dependent upon and interactive with everything else.

somewhere there is a delicate balance mechanism at which point the slightest touch stops the entire device. This is identified as the “critical point,” where the least force exerts the greatest effect.

The implicit presumption is that A causes B causes C.

research indicates that causality operates in a completely different manner, in which the attractor pattern complex “ABC” splits through its “operants” and is expressed as the se...

From this diagram we see that the source (ABC), which is unobservable, results in the visible sequence A→B→C, which is an observable phenomenon within the measurable three-dimensional world.

operants transcend both the observable and the non-observable;

“What encompasses both the possible and the impossible, the known and the unknown?” In other words, what is the matrix of all possibilities?)

brain’s neural networks act as a system of attractor patterns,

Neuron models of consciousness disclose a class of neural networks called “constraint satisfaction systems.”20 In these systems, a network of interconnected neuron units operates within a series of limits and thus sets up attractor patterns, some of which are now being identified with psycho-pathology.21 This kind of modeling correlates behavior with physiology and parallels the results of our kinesiologic muscle testing, demonstrating the connection between mind and body.

parameters of consciousness that we calibrated from 1 to 1,000. The numbers represent the logarithm (to the base 10) of the power of the respective fields.

1 to 600, representing the domain of the vast majority of human experience, is the primary scope of this study; the levels from 600 to 1,000, the realm of non-ordinary evolution—that of enlightenment, sages, and the highest spiritual states—

A multitude of systems has been constructed to try to make that which is incomprehensible comprehensible.

To “make sense” has ordinarily meant to be definable in terms that are linear: logical and rational.

the experience, of life itself, is organic—that is to say, nonl...

test subjects reacted globally to an attractor field, irrespective of the individual variation of their left-brain logic, reason, or sequential thought systems.

enormously powerful attractor Field organizing all of human behavior into what is innate to “humanness.”

Within the giant attractor Field are lesser Fields of progressively less energy and power. These Fields, in turn, dominate behavior, so that definable patterns are consistent across cultures and time, throughout human history. The interactions of these variations within attractor Fields make up the history of civilization and mankind. (A side study not herein reported indicated that the animal and vegetable kingdoms are also controlled by attractor Fields of hierarchic power.)

the body would indeed respond accurately, even when the conscious mind was unaware.

first test the statement, “I have permission to ask this question.”

first established a baseline by asking the subjects, eyes closed, to hold in mind the memory of a time when they were angry, upset, jealous, depressed, guilty, or fearful; at that point, everyone universally went weak.

then ask them to hold in mind a loving person or life situation, and everyone would go strong;

hold up an apple grown with pesticides and ask the audience to look directly at it while being tested; all would go weak.

organically grown apple, free of contaminants, and as the audience focused on it, they would instantly go strong.

Other precautions to maintain the accuracy of the test include removing eyeglasses, especially if they have metal frames, and hats (synthetic materials on top of the head make everyone go weak).The testing arm should also be free of jewelry, especially quartz wrist-watches.

Another factor to be considered in the face of a paradoxical response is the time frame of the memory or image involved.

response will depend on the period the memory or image represents.

Questioning always has to be narrowed down specifically.

One other cause for paradoxical test results is a physical condition of the test subject resulting from stress, or depression of the thymus gland function, which occurs from encountering a very negative energy field.

thymus gland is the central controller of the body’s acupuncture energy system, and when its energy is low, ...
