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
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
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
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
These two enormous forces - truth and meaning - are at war in today's world... And something sooner or later has to give.
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
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
