Tu Não És o Teu Ego
E se tudo aquilo que acreditas ser — os teus medos, desejos, inseguranças, opiniões — não passassem de uma ilusão? E se o «eu» com que te identificas desde sempre for apenas uma construção do ego... e não o teu verdadeiro ser?
Neste livro profundo e transformador, o conceituado psiquiatra e mestre espiritual Dr. David R. Hawkins conduz-nos por uma jornada de autoconhecimento e libertação. Através de uma seleção cuidada dos seus ensinamentos mais impactantes sobre o ego, a mente e o despertar espiritual, somos convidados a largar a identificação com o ego e a abrir caminho à realização plena do Eu autêntico.
Ao longo destas páginas, vai compreender:
• Como nos libertamos de padrões mentais automáticos e limitadores;
• Porque é que o ego é uma ilusão sustentada pela mente;
• Como é que a entrega consciente permite o florescimento do verdadeiro Eu;
• A importância da aceitação, da humildade e do silêncio interior;
• A diferença entre conhecimento intelectual e sabedoria espiritual;
• Que não é necessário subjugar o ego, mas apenas deixar de se identificar com ele;
• Que o Eu verdadeiro não precisa de ser criado — apenas revelado.
O EGO NÃO PRECISA DE SER COMBATIDO. PRECISA DE SER COMPREENDIDO E TRANSCENDIDO.

Sir David Ramon Hawkins, M.D, Ph.D. was a nationally renowned psychiatrist, physician, researcher, spiritual teacher and lecturer.
Founding Director of the Institute for Spiritual Research, Inc. (1983) and Founder of the Path of Devotional Nonduality (2003), Dr. Hawkins lectured widely at such places as Westminster Abbey; Oxford Forum; Universities of Notre Dame, Michigan, Argentina, Fordham and Harvard; University of California (SF) Medical School; Institute of Noetic Sciences; and Agape Spiritual Center (Los Angeles). In addition, he has been an advisor to Catholic, Protestant, and Buddhist monasteries. He conferred with foreign governments on international diplomacy and has been instrumental in resolving long–standing conflicts that were major threats to world peace.
He is featured in recent documentary films, magazines, and radio interviews (e.g., Oprah Radio and Institute of Noetic Sciences) for his work in the areas of health, healing, recovery, spirituality in modern life, consciousness research, and meditation.
Dr. Hawkins entered the field of medicine to alleviate human pain and distress, and his work as a physician was pioneering. As Medical Director of the North Nassau Mental Health Center (1956–1980) and Director of Research at Brunswick Hospital (1968–1979) on Long Island, his clinic was the largest practice in the United States, including a suite of twenty–five offices, two thousand outpatients, and several research laboratories. In 1973, he co–authored the ground–breaking work, Orthomolecular Psychiatry with Nobel Laureate chemist Linus Pauling, initiating a new field within psychiatry.
His clinical breakthroughs brought appearances on The Today Show, The Barbara Walters Show and The Mcneil/Leher News Hour. In the 1970s, he co–founded several psychiatric organizations, including the Editorial Board of the Journal of Schizophrenia and the Attitudinal Healing Center in New York.
Many awards followed, such as The Huxley Award for the "Inestimable Contribution to the Alleviation of Human Suffering," Physicians Recognition Award by the American Medical Association, 50–Year Distinguished Life Fellow by the American Psychiatric Association, the Orthomolecular Medicine Hall of Fame, and a nomination for the prestigious Templeton Prize that honors progress in Science and Religion. In 1995, in a ceremony officiated by the H.H. Prince Valdemar of Schaumburg–Lippe at the San Anselmo Theological Seminary, he became a knight of the Sovereign Order of the Hospitaliers of St. John of Jerusalem (founded in 1077) in recognition of his contributions to humanity.

This was an uneven Hawkins book.
The first half is superb. The editor arranged the material along via negativa lines taking the reading along an experientially verifiable praxis back to consciousness itself. It's quite brilliant.
The second section of three on surrender and healing seems like a looser collection of topics.
And then the third section, which takes up half of the text, needs to be two distinct sections, one on enlightenment and the final on spiritual traps. Especially the last 15% of the book it seemed the editors were repeating the same ideas again and again.
The third section neither matches the tightly organised first, nor blends with the loose second, nor itself has a coherent structure.
I guess maybe a third of the quotes were new to me. That's a lot of new Hawkins material. And a lot of it shed new light not only on the praxis of the first section but the radical and luminous simplicity of the opening ten pages of the third section.
I just feel it needed a more aggressively thematic editor's hand.

Whilst some of this books content goes right over my head and I have to re read a lot, I can fully understand what a gem of knowledge and insight this book is. I am just not ready for it yet.
I feel the best way to understand the book is to just open it up at a random page and ponder on the specific point made or discuss it with a like minded friend or group of friends. Some very valuable, wise information within.

A little more religious than I was expecting but also it’s a book of quotes that often state the same thing over and over. I found some information to be meaningful however I didn’t like the format and the quotes can be contradicting at times.

Excellent
I would recommend this book to all but it is best to have read some of Hawkins’ earlier books. It is an easy book to read as each paragraph stands on its own so it will take some time and thought to contemplate each paragraph. It’s fun to just go to any page, read a paragraph and then go into meditation.

If you are familiar with his other books you will not be disappointed. It is not a traditional book; contains short, and easy to digest knowledge.

Have read and studied nearly all of Dr. Hawkins' work. This small book "holds key teachings" from "doc's" work helping to guide one along the path for when Truth (Enlightenment) may be revealed.

I love these powerful quotes that are beautiful and enlightening reminders that everything is an illusion and that our ego is not our true self.

I have no option to give more than 5 stars.This book is mindblowing for those people who are on the path to realize their higher self.

this is a rly rly good place to start with understanding manifestation and our false constructions of reality. this book really hammers in the idea that the ego is not something we need to fight off or kill, but something that needs to be soothed into nothingness with awareness and compassion
