Introduction to Integral Spirituality | Ken Wilber

Email course on Building an Integrative Mindset: bit.ly/byim-integrallife
Here Ken Wilber offers an introduction to a spirituality that honors the truths of modernity and postmodernity-including the revolutions in science and culture-while incorporating the essential insights of the great religions. You will learn how this new evolution in spirituality combines the enlightenment of the East, which excels at cultivating higher states of consciousness, with the enlightenment of the West, which offers developmental and psychodynamic psychology-each contributing key components to a more integral spirituality.
On the basis of this integral framework, a radically new role for the world's religions is proposed. Because these religions have such a tremendous influence on the worldview of the majority of the earth's population, they are in a privileged position to address some of the biggest conflicts we face. By adopting a more integral view, the great religions can act as facilitators of human development: from magic to mythic to rational to pluralistic to integral-and to a global society that honors and includes all the stations of life along the way.

    I am fascinated with Mr Wilber's presentational analyses - I've never,prior to discovering him , heard such an apparently rational and lucid system of human evolution . So many questions and previously thought to be loose ends he manages to make so clear . Certainly his statement that peace on a global level requires these upward stages of development is incredibly clear , especially as he points out the violent and disastrous results of the lower level religious systems . Just as amazing is his pointing out this system of evolution and it's absolute necessity and applicability to all realms of human experience in all areas of human experience . In short , the knowledge presented here is a bright light shed on all human civilzation long overdue . ...Much grateful thanks Ken Wilber -Namaste 😔

The Baha’i Revelation, established in 1844, is the newest revealed world religion and as such offers rich teachings to elevate humanity’s spiritual reality. It incorporates all 4 quadrants and teaches that religion is one, eternal in the Past and the future and that it is a process of progressive revelation guiding humanity toward an ever advancing civilization.

    What a brilliant man! Thankyou for this! i so very much appreciate this. I think the whole planet has wrestled with this convoluted religious indoctrines and beliefs and it has caused so many rifts and breaks.. Heartbreaks in mankind and questions and confusion and sadly..death. It would do my heart good to see people see and feel love thru both themselves and thru the eyes of eachother. Really believe in love and kindness towards one another.. So that we can let our guard down and stop thinking there are ulterior motives and agendas and oh the trickery and manipulations that happen because either the backgrounds and point of views are so different or there is a fear of losing one self in the art of trying to please everyone and getting lost in the world where everyone just really wants to discover their dreams and bring their realities of the good dreams to come true ...to have people just like you and resonate with you.. Like a world where we all can agree and get the joke..and be in peace ...where the systems work. This worlds been so hidden of what happened and what is true and what we even have going on. For him to just be putting this all into word is a gift i am truly thankful for. Finding balance and the way. Blessings to you reading this ❤

    Radical Understanding transmission given by the authentic Siddha Adi Da is a must in this Samyama! Adi Da: "The principle of ego-transcendence has never been understood, and transcendence of the self-contraction has never been made the basis for the God-Realizing process before. There are many things that I could say about the reasons why there has been no such Revelation previous to My own, but a fundamental reason is that there has been no true understanding of egoity, and the principle of egoity has always been the basis of religion, even esoteric religion. The search, egoity, separateness, the separative motive, the self-contraction itself, has been fundamental to both religious exotericism and religious esotericism, as well as ordinary life. Obviously this is the key matter. This understanding is the key to the Way of the Heart. It is fundamental. If you do not have this understanding, if you do not truly engage it and demonstrate it, you turn the Way of the Heart into an extension of the great search. You make the Way of the Heart into another form of conventional religiosity."

Gen X here, I spontaneously Awakened in March 2020. That Awakening showed me how the life I lived, the experiences, thoughts, and beliefs, were an integral part of the journey to Awakening.

WE ROCK and ROLL forever simply becaue we are. no need to rush things.. just enjoy the moment. you are still growing and dont have to wait for the moment you grow up and dont need to fight that but jsut experience it at every moment not the goal but the journey(orselves, usues and wees) itself. .. i love life and friction and heat and love. i love this. thank you. for putting in your words. as it is continuum at its finest with room to grow indefinately.. beatuiful. thank you... lisa

    Atheism is the absence of a religion. A-theism means non-theism. At not all atheists try to explain reality with science. Some atheists just don't give a damn or don't waste a single thought on the reality they inhabit. As long as they don't believe in a theism, they are by definition atheists. I even know atheists who describe themselves as deistic atheists, so they believe in some sort of creator intelligence but its non-religious, not-theistic, hence a-theistic. And by the way I have not yet heard hitchens or dawkins talk badly about deism or a more allegorical, metaphorical or abstract theism. I could imagine they still don't find it compelling but I don't think they're bothered by it either. They condemn religion as a blind belief system, when it contradicts science and where people have a very superficial and literal understanding of their religion because it means automatic exclusion and all arguments become immune to criticism, scientific & cultural progress or any argument at all.

    I was raised secularly in a catholic family, so in actuality I was a non believer for the longest time. Always interested in natural sciences and never particularly fond of religion. After my first love relationship and the heartbreak that came with it, I woke up into presence. More and more living in the now, gaining higher consciousness and self awareness. However that made me a deistic atheist at best which turned into non-deistic atheism again. After experiencing even higher levels of consciousness in my youth by the means of LSD and other psychedelic drugs I gained a very similar understanding of reality and spirituality as you (ken wilber), and and others have come to. I "woke up". Some time later, more by coincidence I got into occultist teachings such as the kabbala or the kybalion that work with the thesis that reality is mind, that the universe is consciousness and that we are creators, or creative reflections of ONE creative base-consciousness, that everything is one. Very similar to what Ive experienced on psychedelics. Very liberating and immensely self-empowering stuff. That way I also stumbled upon the meaning of ritual and the application of magic (as a mental and spiritual tool, not necessarily the voodoo-way you described) and found that these things are all around us in media, movies, etc. And at the same time I came to understand that the most basic realizations and rules of book religions are true even though these books are corrupted - on purpose but also unconsciously by the low awareness of religious people. Nevertheless, the allegories of the abrahamic god, the garden of eden and the fall of humanity, the allegory of the rebel lucifer (the "light-bringer", the "awakener", the "bringer of awareness/consciousness"), the corruption of humanity, the importance of religious rules are all true and real. Theres is deep truth in integral spirituality and the occult teachings but the fact that we become aware of these things is in itself luciferian, when you come to understand what that means. Our modern spirituality and civilizational consciousness is heightened which gives more and more rise to apotheosis of the individual, narcissistic individualism and transhumanisn. These are all bad things in the context of the abrahamic book religions and its not hard to come to understand why. In my spiritual journey Ive come to the conclusion that actually abrahamic theism is the highest form of spirituality, partially metaphorical and partially very direct and precise, and that indeed life is a test. Do I live for my own and humanitys self fulfillment, self satisfaction or does life have a bigger purpose than just „mental masturbation“. Are religious rules really outdated and backwards or do they fulfill important social and even civilizational purposes?. At the moment humanity is becoming its own god, creating a world that suits the wants of (the more conscious) human individuals but this drive is highly deceptive and most of all dangerous. It is dangerous because it empowers the few and the reason why we shouldnt give into tempation or sin is that we do not only corrupt and numb ourselves but also the people around us until everyone becomes an egotistical in a universal grandiosity and or a hypocritical maniac. We are probably not the first humans atempting to do this big experiment but we might be the first global community trying to achieve the "ubermensch", as nietzsche called it. The unity consciousness is real but humans are long past that point in evolution and we're not supposed to go there with the corrupt consciousness level that we are at. And we will never be able to while we're on earth/or any physical reality. The non-unity consciousness is nothing we can grow out of because it's something we grew into. I think the most influential western leaders of this world want us wake to up and try their best to lead us there but what some of them understand but most people don't (I assume) is that this will result in a completely luciferian world. Lucifer is a symbol for something in consciousness/reality/us and even god that is concerned with achieving and spreading higher consciousness, rebellion against "gods order" (from gods perspective, testing its own "perfection") understanding reality and "god" and manipulating reality to create its own reality where it itself is god, ruler and judge. We are all drawn to that but we should, especially when we come to see the truth, go with god and not ourselves or an "ultra-ego", "gaia", "unity consciousness" because there is corruption (or "evil") in it and we give power to that corruption by apotheosis, even if it feels very good. "The devil comes in the name of love" doesnt mean we shouldn't love but we have to make the right choice and restrict ourselves even if we don't necessarily like the sound of that. This is what growing up means.

    Ken Wilber's material is groundbreaking to me. There's no philosophical theory that's safe from reasonable criticism and that's okay to me. They are all truth revealing attempts, approached from different angles. I reminded myself of that back at college while studying legal ethics. And that's what Wilbers is very good at by using the stages, levels, quadrants etc. And he makes a really good effort to avoid the mistakes of his predecessors, neglecting other perceptions. Instead he includes, "integrates" them in a new structure, a map and explains their relations. If you have time listen to his audio book interview series "kosmic consciousness". It literally blew my mind

    I love Ken Wilbers "4 ups", as a frame of understanding the human potential for growth, enlightenment, and integrating their shadow (growing up, waking up and cleaning up) on a personal and a collective level (showing up). Because of this, and my experiences with metta meditation (loving-kindness, comparable to agape I think), I feel the need to add number 5: warming up. Warming up entails a practice of metta/agape/loving kindness/compassion, that instills a sense of feeling at home, of comfort, of warmth, of liveliness and aliveness. This category could be made a part of waking up I guess, leaving it at "4 ups". It is then an important part.

    If one has read all the science fiction written before about 1967 and one's heart exploded with joy when Niel Armstrong took one small step and one has taken introductory courses in physics, chemistry, computer science and biology (in which one plumbed the depths of photosynthesis and Krebs cycle) and one has deeply enjoyed Darwin's 'Origin of Species', Hofstadter's 'Godel, Escher Bach' and Jayne's 'Origin of Consciousness' and enjoyed a significant LSD experience then one's general take on being has a very good chance of being perfectly resonant with Ken Wilber's integral condensation. (There are, no doubt, other routes to resonance, but that was mine, more or less).

    Shaya Isenberg introduced our class at University of Florida. It was a class! haha. 100 percent 100. He taught me that consciousness has no qualities.. Here is the fun: Hawaii. Left that semester to Hawaii because I was stressed out in school with all the fun of Gainesville. (Jill Biden visited UF and Santa Fe which are a few miles apart to offer an incentive for students to appreciate this world of education.) Anyhow, I am now at a Cuban Coffee restaurant and soda bar, and I love life. My new years resolution was to help Cuba.

    The Post Modernity integrals are dangerously magnetic and continuously pushed by their super originators. It takes one to continually question, everything at every level, in order to advance to higher integral modernity truths.

    Insightful and revealing. I am awakening. I have been stuck in the early stages like mythic ethnocentric for the majority of my Christian experience. I was a Pentecostal and educated but I my education to a large degree did not help me advance beyond these early stages. Fortunately I had been exposed to humanist psychologists like Fromm, Erickson, and Rogers. As a graduate student I had done some research and was exposed to Robert Ellis which exposed me to rationalism and stoic philosophy. For years I compartmentalized my beliefs and suffered from a bad case of cognitive dissonance. I also struggled with either or absolutistic thinking which fundamentalism required. It wasn't until I was in my 40s that I started to investigate church history, question my fundamental beliefs, and read great thinkers like Spinoza, Neitchze, Locke and more modern religious thinkers like Paul Tillich, Bishop Sponge, and Marcus Borg. I teetered on atheism and settled with agnosticism, but like Sponge still identify with the Christian religion with God as my ground of being. I have also looked into panentheism which provides an interesting approach to understanding God that may be consistent with science. Recently I have been learning about Daoism and Buddhism. I am interested in your integral approach to religion to unify my thinking and better communicate what I believe. What thinkers and spiritual people should I be reading?

    I especially appreciated Ken's take down of the "Science-ism" passing itself off as valid critique of every form of spirituality. I am not comfortable with Ken's dismissal of Magick. He did give a nod to the possibility of Yogis developing Siddhas. But Voodoo dolls?.... pure bologna. Dean Radin's research has convinced me that there is more to it than meets the eye. Consciousness, which includes focus and desire do play a role in how situations play out beyond the obvious. The question is, to what degree.
