Marci Winters, Sweetwater Film Screenwater, Writer, Director and Producer Review of Awake Joy by Katie Davis in Maui Vision Magazine
Book Review by Marci Winters in Maui Vision Magazine, Your Guide to Natural Living, August 2, 2008
Marci Winters is a screenwriter/writer, director, producer whose family film, Sweetwater, has aired on PBS. Sweetwater is endorsed by Kids First!, The Coalition for Quality Children's Media. She is available for script consultations and editing and can be reached at her website www.sweetwaterfilm.com
Twenty years ago, Katie Davis was not a spiritual seeker until one day, this mother of two, spontaneously awakened from ordinary business woman/secondary school educator to Enlightened Being. Without a spiritual practice or teacher, she radically awakened to the reality and truth of who we really are.
Years later, Eckhart Tolle encouraged Davis to write Awake Joy: The Essence of Enlighenment, her thought-provoking guidebook to higher consciousness. Awake Joy is both poetic and comprehensive. The language, abstractions and metaphors are like the filling in a dense, rich, dark chocolate layered cake.
Davis believes that our conditioned intelligence is limited and most of us are essentially sleepwalking through life. We each live in a mental illusion that the mind-made self creates. Because the ego, the conceptual I, has a need to tell stories, our mental images match what we are conditioned to believe. Through self-observation, recognizing that you can be free of ego's push and pull cycles, the opportunity to awakened is unveiled.
To be liberated from the ego, Davis suggests that you accept each moment in your life situation to be as it is. This profound acceptance opens the door and lets the ego out, thus a greater connection with the oneness in life can be experienced. This allows us to become more present and to focus on the way of the Heart.
Various breathing exercises, mantras and meditations are offered at the end of the book. They are extremely easy and a relaxed centered feeling washes through the mind-body after practice, creating a more conscious presence. I experienced a new appreciation for the abundance surrounding me, which felt like the Essence of Enlightenment, when I chanted the Sanskrit mantra, Om Nama Shivaya. It is a divine pleasure to taste Davis' sincere heart filled love that she shares on each page.

Intimate Relationships, Love and Emotional Reactions ~ Katie Davis
Before awakening, my intimate partner would say something really critical and I would react with anger (or sadness, guilt, etc.). I would say something in response in order to defend myself. The argument would escalate as our pain bodies would become activated and we would fight. Pretty soon we were saying things that we didn't really mean and talking about similar circumstances from our past. I blamed my partner for how I felt. He/she makes me angry, hurt, sad.
1. I ended our relationship
2. I continued to feel guilty or angry or hurt
3. I forgave the situation and stayed in relationship, but I know we will have another round of this sometime.
4. Next time, I will react stronger or perhaps not say anything at all, but hold it inside with angry thoughts and feelings and still blame my partner for how I feel.
After awakening, what have you noticed about emotional reactions when your partner says something critical?
1. When my partner is critical, since I am observing my thoughts, I am aware that my thinking about the situation is actually causing my own emotional reaction. In other words, the suffering is self-inflicted. My partner says something, I label, judge and categorize the statement as mean or hurtful. When I have such thoughts, it causes my body to emotionally react to my thinking.
2. I have realized that virtually no one has the power to alter my emotional state and if I do feel sad or angry, it is my responsibility and blame no one.
3. When I do feel angry, I no longer act it out with my partner, nor do I repress it. Instead, I take a moment to be consciously present with the emotion and feel it in my body. I also watch my thinking and how it tries to perpetuate the negative emotion or escalate it.
4. With the willingness to suffer consciously, I am noticing that negative emotion is disappearting from my life.
5. I am able to hear the criticism, but no longer take it personally.
6. I have recognized that the world is arising within me. In other words, life is only a mirror that is reflecting my inner state of consciousness. When I see criticism in the world, I now go within to see if there are ways that I am critical of others or critical with myself.
7. When I notice self-criticism, I no longer need to change anything or make it a self-improvement project. I only need to become aware of it and it changes on its own through the simple noticing of it.
8. As I am free of self-criticism, others are no longer critical. The mirror of life circumstances change on their own accord as I free myself from within. I am the key to the tranformation of my world.
9. Since I am totally free and resting within, if someone says something rude, I silently feel compassion for them. I realize that it is "their" inner work and has nothing to do with me, so I am able to compassionately and unconditionally love my partner and recognize that they are not feeling well. Furthermore, I recognize that how they are feeling is fleeting and will soon change.
10. Changing how "others" feel is no longer my responsibility. My job is to remain present and open to the unconditional love within.
11. I have recognized that the ego state of consciousness (the mind-made self, the idea of "me") is a delusion. It exists in others or within me solely through thinking, ideas, concepts and beliefs.
12. Underneath the thinking, I am blissful, unending joy that is absolutely indescructible.

What have your realized about compulsive thinking? ~ Katie Davis
What have you realized about compulsive thinking?
1. By observing thought, they can't use me and I am free.
2. My negative emotions are caused by my own thinking ... judgment, sense of threat, reaction based on past experience or desire based on the future, etc.
3. The first thought is the primary thought "I" (dreaming "I" or what we might call the mind-made self or the ego) ... and then all of the other thoughts follow.
4. When I am fiercely attentive to the present moment or when I am living now, I have fewer thoughts.
5. Thought is always based on some sort of lack (egoic fear) or desires of the mind-made self.
6. Free of the mind-made self, I am free of fear and desire.
7. When I silently ask the question, "Who am I?" the primary thought "I" disappears into the Heart and I experience peace and harmony.
8. I am noticing that thought does not even belong to me unless I identify with them. They just freely float by while I remain still and free.
If I am not the thinker, then who am I? Where are these thoughts arising from within me? From whence do they arise?

Misconceptions About Awakening ~ Katie Davis
Which of the following misconceptions have you encountered in your awakening or recognized in others (so to speak)?
If within you, how was it resolved? Or is this still your true perception (which is also perfect)?
If in others, did you try to change their perception or allow it to be? What did you notice by making that apparent choice?
1. Just another spiritual experience.
2. This is something one can do or accomplish.
3. This is an attainment of the mind-made self.
4. Awakening is a self-improvement project.
5. Can only occur through a long, gradual path of practice and purification.
6. Awakening is really psychosis or a sign mental instability.
7. I will not be able to function in the world.
8. How can I be still when I must move about all day.
9. I can't just sit and meditate all day long.

Practices are for the Mind and Not for Enlightenment ~ Katie Davis
There are three universal life forces that are constantly acting upon the physical human being. In the East they call them "gunas." I just call them life forces. The first is "active" (rajas), the second is "dull, with a certain lassitude" (tamas), and "harmony" (sattvic).
Today while you are taking a walk or simply driving your car or whatever, notice these life forces in action. Wind blowing madly through the trees is active. A lazy calm flowing river is lassitude. Perhaps a beautiful sunset might be labeled harmony. You are able to observe the forces acting in all living creatures. Enter a restaurant and notice which is the predominant force that is present. Of course, since they are always in movement, they are always in constant change as well.
Now, begin observing "your" thoughts. Are they active (compulsive thinking)? Do they have a certain laziness about them? Or does the mind seem in harmony.
This is where practices are handy. Through attending breath or through meditation, thoughts will shift from active or dull and eventually rest in harmony. It is the sattvic or mind in harmony that is nearing enlightenment.
To be clear here, it is not that a harmonious mind "causes" enlightenment. Practices can help the transformation of our thinking in a manner that is harmonious to realizing who you really are. Awakening and enlightenment is totally beyond causality ... call it Grace.
However as soon as the active or dull thinking mind is in harmony, the practitioner then becomes an obscuration. The practitioner itself must be surrender one the mind is concentrated and in harmony. Who is the practitioner? "I am." Ask this question everytime ... "Who am I?"
For discussion, maybe we could share what we observed in watching the life forces throughout the day or watching the three forces within our thinking. What did you notice?
What practices have been tried? The result? Have you ever asked the ONLY essential question ... "who am I?"

9. Even though I understand oneness with Life, I still sense I am separate from the Heart.
10. Socially, I sometimes feel alienated.
11. I experience everyone operating on pretense.
12. I am absorbed by the 'inner' activity of my mind.
13. My emotions are caused by my thoughts.
14. My experience in the world is based on my beliefs and past conditioning.
