Morning PhilosophersNotes Tribe! Today we’ll be studying Ken Wilber.
Ken Wilber
“In the heart of Emptiness there is a mysterious impulse, mysterious because there is actually nothing in the heart of Emptiness (for there is nothing in Emptiness, period). Yet, there it is, this mysterious impulse, the impulse to … create. To sing, to shine, to radiate; to send forth, reach out, and celebrate; to sing and shout and walk about; to effervesce and bubble over, this mysterious exuberance in the heart of Emptiness.”
~ Ken Wilber from One Taste: July 31
And some words from Brian:
Ken Wilber. The Integral Philosopher (& Mystic). You might recognize him as the guy with the intimidating and penetrating stare on the cover of those books of his!
In this PhilosophersNote, we’ll explore some of the Big Ideas I’ve picked up from my studies of Ken’s work and Integral—both from his books and his Integral Institute-sponsored workshops. From “holons” and “spiral dynamics” to “states and stages,” and the “Integral sage.” Whether your new to Ken’s work or have been studying Integral theory for a while, I think you’ll enjoy this practical look to the genius’ work.
