My Immunity to Change
I’ve noticed lately that I really haven’t had much to write about it. Part of it I think is because I’ve been quite busy with other projects, but I think the bigger reason is that many of my fundamental assumptions about the way reality works have come into question. I’ve found that it’s [...]
Continue reading...Ken Wilber on the Meditative Maps
20. October 2008
Over at Buddhist Geeks, we were very lucky to have interviewed one of our favorite philosophers a few weeks ago, Ken Wilber. Today, the 1st part of our discussion with him is live on Buddhist Geeks. It’s entitled “The Meditative Maps: Happy Mornings and Dark Nights.”

17. December 2007
Good video on Ken Wilber talking about the notion of a technological singularity: Interpreting the Singularity.
