hawk's different outlook

Throughout Twin Peaks, Hawk was the only character to me that understood what was going on with the evil spirit BOB. Hawk is a Native American that thinks differently about situations that happen in Twin Peaks. He is almost the spiritual leader among the people in the town. When Hawk talks to Cooper about the difference between the Black Lodge and the White Lodge, he is talking about heaven and hell. Hawk states while talking with Cooper about the Black Lodge, without "imperfect courage" it "will utterly annihilate your soul" just as Angela Hague says in Infinite Games: The Derationalization of Detection in Twin Peaks. Was he possibly making that statement because of BOB? Seeing that BOB is an evil spirit or demon, if your not strong in your courage or faith he is going to take over you. Although Hawk is the spiritual leader, he also is a sort of guardian angel to Cooper and Sheriff Truman. When they go storm One Eyed Jacks to save Audrey Horn in episode 12, they find themselves in a little over their heads. Hawk comes to the rescue by killing the henchmen and help Cooper, Truman, and Audrey get out alive. Hawk's different outlook throughout Twin Peaks is the best understanding of what's going on with the murders. He always gets the job done and is there when he is needed.
