A collection of 365 insightful quotes from best-selling author and consciousness researcher Dr. David R. Hawkins to guide readers on the path to enlightenment. This collection of inspiring quotes from world-renowned consciousness researcher and mystic Dr. David R. Hawkins can help readers elevate their level of consciousness.

Readers will engage with some of Dr. Hawkins's most profound insights from his classic works, such as: To best serve the world, seek enlightenment and transcend illusions rather than contribute to them. Success comes about automatically from knowing where to look. Not what to look for, but where to look. We do not look at what we have, nor at what we do, but at what we are. Once we find within ourselves what we've been searching for, we won't have to bother looking "out there." We can't own that which is great within ourselves unless we learn to recognize it in others. Peace comes with total inner surrender to what is. By continuously letting go, it is possible to stay in that state of freedom. Feelings come and go, and eventually you realize that you are not your feelings, but that the real "you" is merely witnessing them.
