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

I think I was a born scientist.
Ken Wilber
Image
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
Image
I rise to taste the dawn, and find that love alone will shine today.

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.

As Aurobindo and Teilhard de Chardin knew, the future of humankind is God-consciousness.

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.

Most of us are only willing to call 5% of our present information into question any one point.

All sentient beings - all holons in fact - contain Buddha-nature - contain depth, consciousness, intrinsic value, Spirit - and thus we are all members of the council of all beings... And the ultimate objective truth is that all beings are perfect manifestations of Spirit or Emptiness
Ken Wilber
Image
Put bluntly, the ego is not an obstruction to Spirit, but a radiant manifestation of Spirit. All Forms are not other than Emptiness, including the form of the ego. It is not necessary to get rid of the ego, but simply to live with it a certain exuberance.

Society forces you to conform.

Image
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
Image
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?
Ken Wilber
Image
In Democracy, man exploits man in Communism, it's the other way round.
Ken Wilber
Image
Nobody is smart enough to be wrong all the time.
Ken Wilber
Image
Anything you are exclusively attached to & identify with ends up distorting & limiting awareness.
Ken Wilber
Image
In a special sense... the three great natural states of waking, dreaming, and deep sleep contain an entire spectrum of spiritual enlightenment.
Ken Wilber
Image
For what we don't realize today is just what the typical self of every previous stage failed likewise to comprehend: this is not the highest and greatest mode of consciousness which can be attained - there lie ahead the realms of the superconscious and the pitiful ego, by comparison, is as a speck of nothingness.

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.

There are spiritual patterns at work in the universe and these announce themselves with impressive regularity wherever human minds and hearts attempt to attune themselves to the cosmos in all its radiant dimensions.
