About Sir David R. Hawkins, MD, PhD
Dr. Hawkins was once asked, “What is due to the teacher?”
He responded, “Nothing at all. The listener’s interest is more than sufficient. The
only obligation one should accept is the obligation to one’s own self
to institute the wisdoms that were learned and to practice them in
order to transcend the ego. Respect the teacher but save reverence only for God.” (I, 18)
