Wilber's groundbreaking synthesis of religion, philosophy, physics,
and psychology started a revolution in transpersonal psychology. He
was the first to suggest in a systematic way that the great
psychological systems of the West could be integrated with the
noble contemplative traditions of the East. Spectrum of
Consciousness, first released by Quest in 1977, has been the
prominent reference point for all subsequent attempts at
integrating psychology and spirituality.
What does it mean to follow the path of Christ today? For Jim
Marion, former Catholic monk, mystic, and attorney, if you want to
join the Christ in the Kingdom of Heaven, you must do so while
living as a human on the Earth. It's not something that
automatically happens to Christians after death, nor can the Church
do it for you. Indeed, says Marion, inner spiritual growth has
always been the true essence of Christian practice.
Putting on the Mind of Christ is the ardent expression of a
modern mystic reporting his spiritual experiences within a
"Christ-focused" framework. Neither evangelist nor theorist, Marion
is a Christian practitioner--he's simply done what the scriptures
advise. For Christians who are disaffected with contemporary
Christianity there is another way--Marion calls it the "old
original way"-to experience the true spirituality of
Christianity.
Drawing upon his own rich mystical experience and deep
understanding of scriptural models, Marion shows the reader how to
emulate the developmental stages of the Christ--how to put on the
mind of Christ to achieve spiritual illumination and communion with
the Christ. Pioneering, transcendent and grounded, Putting on the
Mind of Christ may permanently alter the landscape of 21st century
Christianity.

EL ARTE VIONARIO DE ALEX GREY
CON KEN WILBER Y CARLO MCCORMICK
"Los cuadros del Sr. Grey, tan detallados y anatomicamente
precisos como un ilustracion medica, presentan al hombre como un
ser arquetipico luchando por conseguir la unidad cosmica...La
vision de Grey de la humanidad imperfecta pero perfeccionable es
como un antidoto contra el cinismo y el malestar espiritual
prevealente en mucho del arte contemporaneo."New York Times.,."es
solo la curiosidad de Grey, su deseo de comprender la
metaestructura cosmica de la humanidad, lo que le conduce al
recuento rigurosamente detallado de lo tipicamente
oculto."Artforum
"Su trabajo [el de Alex Grey] lo coloca dentro de un grupo muy
pequeno de importantes artistas contemporaneos; a traves de su arte
aspira alcanzar los tres reinos--desde el de la materia hasta el de
la mente y el espiritu--dentro de un raro ideal."Ken Wilber
Esta serie unica de pinturas lleva al espectador a un viaje
grafico y vionario a traves de la anatomia fisica y metafisica del
ser. En su exploracion dentro de la naturaleza del hombre/mujer,
Alex Grey retrata el sistema nervioso, el vascular, el esqueleto y
demas sistemas corporales con un realismo desmenuzador y
anatomicamente exacto. Despues pasa a los sistemas
espirituales/energeticos con imagenes como el Entramado de la Mente
Universal, visualizando el simbolismo esoterico y sagrado del
cuerpo y las fuerzas que definen su campo de energia viviente. Los
Espejos Sagrados, presentados aqui en su totalidad, han sido
exhibidos por todo el mundo. Las figuras son de tamano natural y se
enfrentan difectamente al espectador para conseguir, precisamente,
el efecto de espejo: permaneciendo frente aellos el espectador
puede "ver dentro" de si mismo. Ademas, Grey ha pintado los
diferentes sistemas en un estado ideal y saludable para que puedan
funcionar como ayuda en la curacion mediante visulizaciones o
meditacion. Al retratar los diferentes sexos y razas, Espejos
Sagrados tambien nos cuestiona sobre como nos vemos reflejados en
dos demas.Los ensayos de Ken Wilber, eminente psicologo
transpersonal, y del destacado critico de arte de Nueva York, Carlo
McCormick, exploran el elemento espiritual del arte desde el punto
de vista de la Filosofia Eterna y trazan el desarorollo del trabajo
de Grey--incluyendo sus representaciones de arte--junto con el
sendero del artista/chaman. Por su parte, el propio Grey explica la
concepcion, construccion y simbolismo de Espejos Sagrados y otros
cuadros (reproducidos en este libro) de su rico y variado trabajo,
incluyendo Gaia: El Alma del Mundo, interpretado como el arbol o la
membrana de la vida que toma parte en el continuo ciclo de
nacimiento, susteno y muerte; y el Viaje del Sanador Herido, que
describe el descenso chamanico, la desintegracion y tansmutacion
del Ser.Fascinado desde la adolescencia con los temas de la
mortalidad y la polaridad, Alex Grey ve en la anatomia humana un
microcosmos de los muchos sistemas y niveles de orden en la
naturaleza. El pintor paso vaiors anos en una escuela de medicina
estudiando la anatomia humana con un interes especial en la
interconexion del cuerpo con la mente y el espiritu. Su trabajo se
ha exhibido en las Galerias Stux de Nueva York y Boston; en el New
Museum de Nueva York; en el Museo de Arte de la Universidad de
California en Santa Barbara; en la Exposicion de Arte Internacional
de Chicago; en laGaleria Regional de Arte de Londres en Canada; en
el Gran Palacio de Paris; en la Bienal de Sao Paulo, Brasil, y en
numerosas otras exposiciones.
Coming soon as a Major Motion Picture
Here is a deeply moving account of a couple's struggle with cancer and their journey to spiritual healing. Grace and Grit is the compelling story of the five-year journey of Ken Wilber and his wife Treya Killam Wilber through Treya's illness, treatment, and, finally, death.
A radical approach to mindfulness--combining an ancient meditation technique with leading-edge theory, resulting in a powerful new method of self-transformation.
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.
Wilber traces human development from infancy into adulthood and
beyond, into those states described by mystics and spiritual
adepts. The spiritual evolution of such extraordinary individuals
as the Buddha and Jesus hints at the direction human beings will
take in their continuing growth toward transcendence.
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.

This unique series of paintings takes the viewer on a graphic,
visionary journey through the physical, metaphysical, and spiritual
anatomy of the self. From anatomically correct rendering of the
body systems, Grey moves to the spiritual/energetic systems with
such images as "Universal Mind Lattice," envisioning the sacred and
esoteric symbolism of the body and the forces that define its
living field of energy.
Includes essays on the significance of Grey's work by Ken
Wilber, the eminent transpersonal psychologist, and by the noted
New York art critic, Carlo McCormick.
In this tour de force of scholarship and vision, Ken Wilber traces
the course of evolution from matter to life to mind and describes
the common patterns that evolution takes in all three of these
domains. From the emergence of mind, he traces the evolution of
human consciousness through its major stages of growth and
development. He particularly focuses on modernity and
postmodernity: what they mean; how they impact gender issues,
psychotherapy, ecological concerns, and various liberation
movements; and how the modern and postmodern world conceive of
Spirit. This second edition features forty pages of new material,
new diagrams, and extensively revised notes.
For many centuries Indian and Tibetan Buddhists have employed this
collection of pithy, penetrating Dharma slogans to develop
compassion, equanimity, lovingkindness, and joy for others. Known
as the "lojong"--or mind-training--teachings, these slogans have
been the subject of deep study, contemplation, and commentary by
many great masters.
In this volume, Traleg Kyabgon offers a fresh translation of the
slogans as well as in-depth new commentary of each. After living
among and teaching Westerners for over twenty years, his approach
is uniquely insightful into the ways that the slogans could be
misunderstood or misinterpreted within our culture. Here, he
presents a refreshing and clarifying view, which seeks to correct
points of confusion.
