Consciousness Explained

Explore the complete spectrum of human consciousness from shame to enlightenment, and discover where you vibrate on the scale of emotional and spiritual evolution.

Understanding the Map

The Map of Consciousness, developed by Dr. David R. Hawkins, is a conceptual model that assigns numerical values to different states of consciousness. These values represent logarithmic scales of calibrated consciousness levels that range from the lowest (shame at 20) to the highest (enlightenment at 700-1000).

Each level correlates with specific emotions, perceptions, and ways of interacting with the world. As we move up the scale, we experience greater personal power, spiritual awareness, and life satisfaction.
