Hardback. Condizione: Good. In a tour de force of scholarship and vision, Ken Wilber traces the course of evolution from matter to life to mind. In each case evolution has a direction, a tendency to produce more highly organized patterns. The spirit of evolution lies in its directionality: order out of chaos. After arriving at the emergence of mind, Wilber traces the evolution of human consciousness through its major stages of development, pointing out that at each stage there is the dialectic of progress--every increase in consciousness is bought at a price: new freedom also means new license to choose destruction. He particularly focuses on the rise of modernity and post-modernity--what they mean, how they relate to gender issues, to psychotherapy, to ecological concerns, and to various liberation movements. Most important, he asks: Can spiritual concerns be integrated with massive developments of the modern world? This edition is updated and includes a new introduction placing it in the context of the Collected Works .…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. A concise, comprehensive overview of the "M Theory" and its application in today's world, by a renowned American philosopher   Ken Wilber has long been hailed as one of the most important thinkers of our time, but his work has seemed inaccessible to readers who lack a background in consciousness studies or evolutionary theory--until now. In A Theory of Everything, Wilber uses clear, non-technical language to present complex, cutting-edge theories that integrate the realms of body, mind, soul, and spirit. He then demonstrates how these theories and models can be applied to real world problems and incorporated into readers' everyday lives.   Wilber begins his study by presenting models like "spiral dynamics"--a leading model of human evolution--and his groundbreaking "all-level, all-quadrant" model for integrating science and religion, showing how they are being applied to politics, medicine, business, education, and the environment. He also covers broader models, explaining how they can integrate the various worldviews that have been developed around the world throughout the ages. Finally, Wilber proposes that readers take up an "integral transformative practice"--such as meditation--to help them apply and develop this integral vision in their personal, daily lives. A fascinating and easy-to-follow exploration of the "M Theory," this book is another tour-de-force from one of America's most inventive minds.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. "As you look deeply into your own awareness, and relax the self-contraction, and dissolve into the empty ground of your own primordial experience, the simple feeling of Being-right now, right here-is it not obvious all at once? Were you not present from the start? Did you not have a hand to play in all that was to follow? Did not the dream itself begin when you got bored with being God? Was it not fun to get lost in the productions of your own wondrous imagination, and pretend it all was other? Did you not write this book, and countless others like it, simply to remind you who you are?" -Ken Wilber The author of nineteen books of philosophy and psychology, Ken Wilber is a pioneering thinker who has developed an integral "theory of everything" that embraces the truths of both Eastern spirituality and Western science. Yet while he is best known for his scholarly research into the world's contemplative traditions, Wilber is also an accomplished spiritual practitioner and mystic in his own right. In order to highlight the personal wisdom of this popular author, the editors of The Simple Feeling of Being have assembled a collection of inspirational, mystical, and instructional passages drawn from his publications. These heartfelt writings, born of Ken's own meditation practice and inner experiences, include: . Poetic passages of contemplative insights and reflections . Inspired descriptions of Spirit, Nondual Awareness, the Witness, One Taste, and other topics . Commentary on the spiritual contributions of figures such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Saint Teresa of vila, Meister Eckhart, and Ramana Maharshi . Anecdotes of personal experience and glimpses into Wilber's inner world . Practical spiritual instructions and guided meditations.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. The mystical writings of the world's great physicists-now in one eye-opening volume that bridges the gap between science and religion Quantum Questions: Mystical Writings of the World's Great Physicists explores the intersection between modern physics and mysticism. Through the reflections of pioneering scientists like Einstein, Heisenberg, and Schroedinger, the book delves into the philosophical implications of scientific discoveries, revealing a shared realization: while physics illuminates the material world, it cannot capture the essence of reality, which remains a domain of mystical experience. This anthology invites readers to contemplate the limits of scientific inquiry and the enduring quest for a holistic understanding of existence. Readers will gain insight into the distinct yet interconnected realms of science and religion, as the physicists featured in the book articulate the necessity of both in forming a complete worldview. The text challenges conventional notions, encouraging an appreciation of the beauty and complexity of the universe that transcends empirical knowledge. By navigating the intricate dialogue between rational thought and mystical insight, readers will be inspired to reconsider their own understanding of consciousness and reality. For those seeking to enrich their perspective on the universe, Quantum Questions offers a unique lens through which to view the profound connections between science and religion. This compelling collection not only demonstrates the intellectual rigor of history's greatest physicists but also invites readers to engage with the deeper questions that have shaped human thought across centuries. …
