More quotes by Ken Wilber
Most of us, I suspect, prefer our teachers to be of the Nice Guy variety.
Ken Wilber
Let's not forget that what is looking out of your eyes and hearing with your ears right now is already Spirit. And that Spirit, that I AMness, is always present in all sentient beings.
Ken Wilber
Bad Gardens copy, good gardens create, great gardens transcend.
Ken Wilber
Eternity is not ever-lasting time but the real, unfading, indestructible, and timeless Present, for, as Schroedinger said, the present is the only thing that has no end.
Ken Wilber
And resting in the ocean, dipped into the sea, I find glimmers of One Taste everywhere.
Ken Wilber
Physics is the most fundamental, and least significant, of the sciences.
Ken Wilber
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).
Ken Wilber
As Aurobindo and Teilhard de Chardin knew, the future of humankind is God-consciousness.
Ken Wilber
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
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
Authentic spirituality is revolutionary. It does not legitimate the world, it breaks the world it does not console the world, it shatters it. And it does not render the self content, it renders it undone.
Ken Wilber
You can't have good without evil, pleasure without pain, and so on.
Ken Wilber
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
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
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
The mystics ask you to take nothing on mere belief. Rather, they give you a set of experiments to test in your own awareness and experience. The laboratory is your own mind, the experiment is meditation.
Ken Wilber
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.
Ken Wilber
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
An integral approach acknowledges that all views have a degree of truth, but some views are more true than others, more developed, more evolved, more adequate.
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
