wilber wanes

Ken Wilber
I was fundamentally transformed through reading some of Ken Wilber’s earlier work – especially “No Boundaries”.

In his more mature years he gathered a gaggle of talented disciples and became an industry (Integral Institute) that creates and sells ideas relating to what he now calls the supermind.

His wife died very young and he put his considerable intellectual talent in the reclusive service of making the world a better place by helping individuals to use their mindbrains more effectively.

As a young freelancer he studied all the major world religions and philosophical systems and saw patterns in them. It makes for mind boggling reading.

Here are some useful websites. The rise and fall article is nicely balanced.

I have written about him several times through the years. Put ‘Wilber’ in the search box on my two blogs:
