When the thunder roars, do you not hear your Self? When the lightening cracks, do you not see your Self? When clouds float quietly across the sky, is this not your very own limitless Being, waving back at you?

More quotes by Ken Wilber
I don't have to agree with everything you say, but I should attempt at least to understand it, for the opposite of mutual understanding is, quite simply, war.
Ken Wilber
God does not lie in our collective past, God lies in our collective future the Garden of Eden is tomorrow, not yetsterday the Golden Age lies down the road, not up it.
Ken Wilber
Like going to the dentist, where you write: Dental appointment today. All of the dentists in Boulder are 'holistic.' They can't fill a cavity but they're good for your soul. Your teeth rot, but apparently your spirit prospers.
Ken Wilber
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.
Ken Wilber
As Aurobindo and Teilhard de Chardin knew, the future of humankind is God-consciousness.
Ken Wilber
Each stage of development, remember, has a dialectic of progress--in plain language, every new development is good news, bad news.
Ken Wilber
Nobody is smart enough to be wrong all the time.
Ken Wilber
Unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life are not signs of mental illness, but of growing intelligence.
Ken Wilber
One's sanctions for truth and goodness are established largely by individual preferences.
Ken Wilber
These two enormous forces - truth and meaning - are at war in today's world... And something sooner or later has to give.
Ken Wilber
Art is a window to The Infinite, and opening to the goddess, a portal through which you and I, with the help of the artist, may discover depths and heights of our soul undreamed of by the vulgar world. Art is the eye of the spirit, through which the sublime can reach down to us, and we up to it, and be transformed, transfigured in the process.
Ken Wilber
A natural hierarchy is simply an order of increasing wholeness, such as: particles to atoms to cells to organisms, or letters to words to sentences to paragraphs. The whole of one level becomes part of the whole of the next. In other words, natural hierarchies are composed of holons.
Ken Wilber
Prana is implicate to matter but explicate to mind mind is implicate to prana but explicate to soul soul is implicate to mind but explicate to spirit and the spirit is the source and suchness of the entire sequence.
Ken Wilber
The integral vision embodies an attempt to take the best of both worlds, ancient and modern. But that demands a critical stance willing to reject unflinchingly the worst of both as well.
Ken Wilber
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
Love is a time-honored way to transcend the separate-self sense and leap into the sublime Treya and I held hands, closed our eyes, and jumped.
Ken Wilber
To understand the whole it is necessary to understand the parts. To understand the parts, it is necessary to understand the whole. Such is the circle of understanding.
Ken Wilber
The integral sage, the nondual sage, is here to show us otherwise. Known generally as Tantric, these sages insist on transcending life by living it. They insist on finding release by engagement, finding nirvana in the midst of samsara, finding total liberation by complete immersion.
Ken Wilber
Most of us, I suspect, prefer our teachers to be of the Nice Guy variety.
Ken Wilber
The Self doesn't live forever in time, it lives in the timeless present prior to time, prior to history, change, succession. The Self is present as Pure Presence, not as everlasting duration, a rather horrible notion.
Ken Wilber
