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.

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.
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.

Unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life are not signs of mental illness, but of growing intelligence.
Ken Wilber
Image
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.
Ken Wilber

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

One Taste is not some experience you bring about through effort rather, it is the actual condition of all experience before you do anything to it. This uncontrived state is prior to effort, prior to grasping, prior to avoiding. It is the real world before you do anything to it, including the effort to see it nondually.
Ken Wilber
Image
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.
Ken Wilber
Image
As Aurobindo and Teilhard de Chardin knew, the future of humankind is God-consciousness.
Ken Wilber
Image
There are several different meanings of the words religion and spirituality, all of which are important. The whole point about an integral or comprehensive approach is that it must find a way to believably include all of those important meanings in a coherent whole.
Ken Wilber
Image
Being completely and totally present and at every single point of space and time, It is fully and completely present here and now, thus we can no more attain immanent Spirit then we could, say, attain our feet.
Ken Wilber
Image
There is intersubjectivity woven into the very fabric of the Kosmos at all levels.
Ken Wilber
Image
And resting in the ocean, dipped into the sea, I find glimmers of One Taste everywhere.
Ken Wilber
Image
Whenever we moderns pause for a moment, and enter the silence, and listen very carefully, the glimmer of our deepest nature begins to shine forth, and we are introduced to the mysteries of the deep, the call of the within, the infinite radiance of a splendor that time and space forgot
Ken Wilber
Image
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
Image
I rise to taste the dawn, and find that love alone will shine today.
Ken Wilber
Image
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.
Ken Wilber
Image
You cannot have exterior development without interior development to hold it in place.
Ken Wilber
Image
One's sanctions for truth and goodness are established largely by individual preferences.
Ken Wilber
Image
The single greatest world transformation would simply be the embrace of global reasonableness and pluralistic tolerance the global embrace of egoic-rationality (on the way to centauric vision-logic).
