I agree completely. And yet many folks treat him as such.
I found it interesting that he studied 1) with Lester Levenson, and took the Sedona Method classes very early on and 2) worked with Kenneth Wapnick, and studied ACIM.
I knew when I read his first book that it was fabulous; except I also knew that the muscle testing was not infallable by any means. Neither is he. When he began to address politics, it just seemed to me that he had lost his perspective, and was playing in the duality for a bit.
In my life, I've found the only truly infallable source is the living truth that shines through from within when I get my ego out of the way. Still, when I read books that lead me to that encounter, it is always such a blessing. Hawkins helped me hear that voice within more easily.
Just my perspective. Blessings from Belle,
