Donna Hathaway’s Book Club is enjoying reading “Power vs. Force” by Dr. David R. Hawkins so much that they plan to continue their discussion Nov. 16, at 7:00 p.m. at the Warrenville Public Library. In essence, the book explores the difference between “knowing about” something and actually “knowing it.”
Dr. Hawkins has created a scale of human consciousness from one to 1000, upon which he calibrates the level of the truth of any statement. He claims that modern society lives at a consciousness level of 207, far beyond the Neanderthals, but far below the level of enlightenment that begins at 600 with the experience of non-duality and direct knowing.
Reading the terse, straightforward and somewhat academic prose of this book is a challenge. Joining this group to share your reading experience will bring more light to your appreciation of Hawkins’ study of subjective states of spiritual awareness and the human experience of Divine Presence. Copies of Dr. Hawkins’ book are available at the Warrenville Library.
Although there is concern for underground water reservoirs in Nebraska, this is not the only objection that environmentalists have to the Keystone XL Pipe line proposed to carry oil from Canada to Texas.
To all that came to celebrate and remember Ron Lederman’s life. Thank you for all the kind words and memories.
I am responding to, and have a question for managing editor, George Safford. Why is it okay for Mr. Safford to insult the Chronicles readers, but it is not okay for us to have an opportunity to properly defend ourselves? Your editorial policy is a disgrace to free and open speech.
Joe Voegtle passed away this last week. The President wasn't notified. There won't be a plaque at an Ivy League university. The New York Times didn't carry a single word. But there is a little corner of the universe where, for a time, everything stopped – a little town that could pass for anywhere in the United States; the town where Joe plied his trade, raised a family, and touched the lives of those around him.
Why not do something constructive with the excess railroad funds? How about hiring a lawyer, familiar with dealing with railroad problems, to get the trains to stop blowing their horns?
