The Map of Human Consciousness is a creative work of the spirit for the benefit of all mankind.
It was tested and developed by a psychiatrist, David Hawkins, based upon kineosology research with thousands of subjects
over a 30 year period.
According to Dr. Hawkins, Most of humanity is stuck in the negative (-) life-denying energy
vibrational levels from -20 (Shame) to -175 (Pride) and 190 (Conservatism)
The positive (+) life-affirming energy vibrational levels begin with Courage
(telling the truth) at +200 and range all the way to Enlightenment at +1000.
Everyone has the full range of potentiality to function from -20 to +1000, but due to the
attitudes and thoughts we hold in mind, we become fixated at any one of these chronic levels, although we are constantly
trying to get "out of the ego box" of symptoms and suffering (from -20 to -175),
Spiritual Psychotherapy is one of the processes for transforming these -level life-denying
negative energies into +level life-affirming positive ones.
Hawkins noted that each ego state has a downside and an upside, even though overall
these states in the box are negative:
Regarding Guilt the downside might be that I hate myself and the world; the upside might
be that I made a mistake, and want to correct it.
Regarding Apathy, the downside is that nothing works, I won't even try; the upside might be
that this isn't working, I need help.
Regarding Grief, the downside is poor me, there is no hope; the upside might be that I can
cry, share the sadness, and allow new hope.
Regarding Fear, the downside might be that I withdraw, feel paralyzed, run away; the upside
might be that I take action, get help, find a safe solution.
Regarding Lust or Desire, the downside is that I have a constant craving and addiction;
the upside might be that I can seek something better.
Regarding Anger, the downside might be violence, bitterness, revenge; the upside might be
assertiveness and validating of self.
Regarding Pride, the downside might be contempt, arrogance, control over others; the upside
might be self-esteem and power to do things.
Regarding Conformity or Conservatism, the downside might be to hide or deny one's dark side;
the upside might be to want to belong in an honest way.
