Book Description
A radical approach to mindfulness and self-transformation that combines an ancient meditation technique with leading-edge theory With practical teachings and detailed instructions, Ken Wilber introduces Integral Mindfulness, a new way of practicing the widely popular meditation. Integral Mindfulness applies many of the leading-edge insights of Ken Wilber's Integral Theory—the first system to combine Eastern teachings on the five stages of awakening with the eight major Western models of human development, thus portraying the complete path of human evolution. In addition to all the benefits to body, mind, and spirit that standard mindfulness meditation confers, practicing Integral Mindfulness promises a more powerful approach to personal transformation and brings within reach the fullest experience of Enlightenment possible. Beginning with as little as fifteen to thirty minutes of daily sessions, the meditator can gradually expand from there by slowly and easily adding significant aspects of the practice. Meditation instructions and step-by-step guided contemplations are given in detail. Readers learn how to create a graph to track progress and discover natural strengths and potentials. The book also offers recommended readings and resources to facilitate further study.

Book Description
How to put Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory—which synthesizes the teachings of the world’s great wisdom traditions—into practice in all aspects of everyday life, so you can reach your full human potential “A masterpiece guide of grounded, intelligent, self-transforming wisdom integrating the insights of all the great traditions of truth.” —Caroline Myss, author of Anatomy of the Spirit Over the last thirty-five years, Ken Wilber has developed an Integral “theory of everything” that makes sense of how all the world’s knowledge systems—East and West; ancient, modern, and postmodern—fit together and can elevate our awareness. Drawing on science, psychology, human development, spirituality, religion, and dozens of other fields, Integral Theory is a revolutionary framework for understanding ourselves and the world we live in. Now there is a way to not just think Integrally, but to embody an Integral worldview in your everyday life. Integral Life Practice is not just a new approach to self-development and higher awareness, but a way of making sense of—and making best use of—the existing treasure trove of insights, methods, and practices for cultivating a more enlightened life. It offers a uniquely adaptive approach to awakened living that’s suitable for everyone: people with busy careers and families, college students, retirees, even hardcore athletes and yogis. It’s geared for devout—and irreverent—people of any religion, or no religion! This highly flexible system will help you develop your physical health, spiritual awareness, emotional balance, mental clarity, relational joy, and energy level, within a framework that integrates all aspects of your life. Combining original exercises, vivid examples, cutting-edge theory, and illustrative graphics, Integral Life Practice is the ultimate handbook for realizing freedom and fullness in the 21st century.

Book Description
"Kenneth SOrensen masterfully shows how the human being is a seven-fold system of energies and offers a variety of meditations for accessing all the colors of this rainbow of potentiality. Integral meditation is an illuminating and wise presentation of the science of meditation. It is a candid spiritual autobiography - a magnificent synthesis of the author's life to date and what he has discovered by consciously treading the path of the Soul." Michael Lindfield - Board President of Meditation Mount in Ojai, California Kenneth SOrensen (born 1962) is a psychotherapist, author and spiritual teacher, and the co-founder of Jivayou.com. He has an MA in Psychosynthesis from the University of East London and is the author of The Soul of Psychosynthesis: The Seven Core Concepts. In Integral Meditation, SOrensen offers a lively and comprehensive introduction to the esoteric philosophy of the Seven Rays (also known as the Seven Rivers of Life), which teaches how we can achieve Self-realisation by integrating and embodying the seven essential energies that underpin the universe. SOrensen explains how each of the Seven Rays can be navigated using a particular type of meditation that must be modified according to the meditator's personal blueprint of spiritual energy. The result is a unique path to the Soul for every seeker. While reflecting with unflinching honesty upon his own spiritual journey, SOrensen shows how the application of tried and tested techniques of meditation can bring inspiration, transformation and spiritual breakthrough. The formula is as simple as it is challenging: the integration of a variety of meditation techniques can result in the manifestation of universal energies that will profoundly change our relationship to ourselves, to those around us and to the universe as a whole. Drawing heavily on the teachings of Psychosynthesis, Integral psychology and ancient wisdom, Integral Meditation presents an approach to the psycho-spiritual journey that can be summed up in the invitation: "Meditate, love and choose freedom every day."

Integral Buddhism

ISBN: 0834841274
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 178

Book Description
An edifying view of Buddhism from one of today's leading philosophers: a look at its history and foundational teachings, how it fits into modern society, and how it (and other world religions) will evolve. What might religion look like in the future? Our era of evolution in social consciousness and revolution in science, technology, and neuroscience has created difficulties for some practitioners of the world’s great spiritual traditions. How can one remain true to their central teachings while also integrating those teachings into a new framework that is inclusive of ongoing discoveries? Taking the example of Buddhism to explore this key question, Ken Wilber offers insights that are relevant to all of the great traditions. He shows that traditional Buddhist teachings themselves suggest an ongoing evolution leading toward a more unified, holistic, and interconnected spirituality. Touching on all of the key turning points in the history of Buddhism, Wilber describes the ways in which the tradition has been open to the continuing unfolding and expansion of its own teachings, and he suggests possible paths toward an ever more Integral approach. This work is a precursor to and condensed version of Wilber’s The Religion of Tomorrow.

I'd watch in amazement, as she would literally dance across the messages of the cards, hitting me right between the eyes with their messages of truth and wisdom. Her personal experience and understanding of them is obviously quite vast, based on her own years of working experience. In a rare opportunity, Suzanne shares her incredible insights into how to read each and every card with her book, "Integral Tarot". Today, I have a greater insight into myself. I start each day with my own personal readings. Using Suzanne's book as my guide, those cards speak truths directly to me, even more clearly than when I was a passive observer getting read by someone else. Now, I can hear my guardian angel speak right through me, and you will too. I highly recommend this book to you. It will change your life, just as it continues to change mine. Joel Castleberg, Producer and Owner of Panama Pictures said this about the book: "I have owned and experimented with a Tarot deck for over 15 years and never really knew how to work with it." "Working with Suzanne's Tarot book for only a short time has been extraordinary...in terms of learning about the Tarot, but mostly as a guide in my own personal exploration of consciousness."
