The great and rare mystics of the past . . . were, in fact, ahead of their time, and are still ahead of ours. In other words, they most definitely are not figures of the past. They are figures of the future.

And as for baby-boomer parents cluck-clucking about illegal substances, ah, gimme a break. Still, I think I'll pass on the rave. But more power to 'em, I say.

Truth, in the broadest sense, means being attuned with the real. To be authentically in touch with the true, and the good and the beautiful. Yes?

The truth is an arbitrary, shifting, culturally relative, and historically molded phenomenon.

Ken Wilber
Image
We must forgive each other our arising, for our existence always torments others. The golden rule in the midst of this mutual misery has always been, not to do no harm, but as little as possible and not to love one another, but as much as you can.
Ken Wilber
Image
I don't believe that any human mind is capable of 100 percent error... Nobody is smart enough to be wrong all the time.
Ken Wilber
Image
Meditation was invented as a way for the soul to venture inward, there ultimately to find supreme identity with Godhead. Whatever else it does, and it does many beneficial things, meditation is first and foremost a search for the God within.
Ken Wilber
Image
To develop a more or less accurate self-image...is simply to gain a comprehensive awareness of those facets of yourself which you didn't know existed. And these facets are easily spotted because they show up as your symptoms.
Ken Wilber
Image
As Aurobindo and Teilhard de Chardin knew, the future of humankind is God-consciousness.
Ken Wilber
Image
You are not the one who experiences liberation you are the clearing, the opening, the emptiness, in which any experience comes and goes, like reflections on the mirror. And you are the mirror, the mirror mind, and not any experienced reflection.
Ken Wilber
Image
If you really want to change the world, you must first understand it adequately, or all you will do is reproduce in larger numbers your own ignorance.
Ken Wilber
Image
Most of us are only willing to call 5% of our present information into question any one point.

Image
I rise to taste the dawn, and find that love alone will shine today.

Image
Both the old and new physics were dealing with shadow-symbols, but the new physics was forced to be aware of that fact - forced to be aware that it was dealing with shadows and illusions, not reality.

Change of state is not the point recognizing the Changeless is the point, recognizing primordial Emptiness is the point, and if you are breathing and vaguely awake, that state of consciousness will do just fine.
