Integral Sedona Network Guidelines


The guidelines for participating in this network are simple: listen to others, respect different points of view, tell the truth, do your best to become conscious of the universal tendency to project your unhealed issues on to others (projection usually announces itself by us feeling inappropriately angry or upset with someone else), and, of course, be genuinely committed to becoming the best, most well-rounded human you can be.

For additional tips, read Ken Wilber's "Guidelines For Integral Institute Forums".

If we follow these rules, we should all get along swimmingly, even when we hit rough waters.

And with that, welcome! I sincerely hope this network helps everyone who shares a passionate interest in all things integral to go as far as we can -- individually and collectively -- along this exciting, newly emerging path.

............

"I have one major rule: everybody is right. More specifically, everybody -- including me -- has some important pieces of the truth, and all of those pieces need to be honored, cherished, and included in a more gracious, spacious, and compassionate embrace."

-- Ken Wilber

Special iSedona Events

In September of 2008, four members of Integral Sedona's Leadership Team -- David Sunfellow, Carol Williamson, Charles Wells, and Steve Schliebs -- made a trip to Boulder, Colorado to meet the movers and shakers at Integral Life / Integral Institute and Boulder Integral. While at Integral Life / Integral Institute, they met with CEO Robb Smith, Clint Fuhs, and Robert MacNaughton. Then they buzzed over to Boulder Integral and met with Jeff Salzman, Ross Hostetter, Nomali Perera, Doshin Nelson, and other Boulder Integral noteables. Later that evening, they attended an inspiring question and answer session with Robert Augustus Masters and Diane Bardwell Masters. The following day, they attended the official launch and book signing of the Integral Life Practice book, with authors Terry Patten, Adam Leonard, and Marco Morelli. In between meetings, presentations and book signings, they also had time to roam through the festive streets of downtown Boulder where they ran into Huy Lam (featured in The Integral Life Practice Kit), discovered photos of Ken Wilber and Robert Masters posted in a local metaphysical bookstore, and toured the quiet halls of Shambhala.

Support Integral Institute (& Ourselves)


Since our work is greatly assisted by the fantastic materials and resources produced by Integral Institute, we encourage our members to support Integral Institute by becoming monthly contributors. Monthly contributions range from $10.00 a month to $500.00 a month, with each level of support providing an ever-expanding list of services to donors. A mere $10.00 a month provides full access to the growing collection of audio, video, and other materials offered by Integral Naked. Larger monthly donations, allows supporters to receive the IN Sampler CD/DVD set, the Holons Newsletter, AQAL Journal, Integral seminar discounts, invitations to special events, and more.

We can also support Integral Institute (and our own development) by purchasing integrally-oriented books and materials. Here is a quick list of the books and resources we recommend the most:

Outstanding Integral Resources


Quote Worth Pondering:

"The AQAL Code is the result of what started as The Human Consciousness Project. Similar to the Human Genome Project, the Consciousness Project was created to map every state of consciousness, personality type, meme, neurotransmitter from dopamine to serotonin, every synapse, PET distribution scan, meditation state, altered state, peak experience, neuropeptide, stage of consciousness, neuronal display, twitch, twinge, and tingle of the human mind, or psyche, or bodymind, or brain-mind, or whatever you want to call our being. The idea was to get a complete map of the human brain-mind -- a composite map created by looking at every known culture and its psychological, spiritual, and scientific maps of the human psyche -- going back thousands of years, and then using all of those partial maps to create a composite map of the full potentials of the total known territory of the human psyche to date."

--- Excerpt from Ken Wilber's new novel, "The Many Faces Of Terrorism"

Altitude


Click on the image to download a copy

The concept of Altitude is a radically new approach to development created by Ken Wilber and presented in his book Integral Spirituality. In Holons, we use Altitude as a measure of development in both culture and consciousness. A simple way to explain it is to say that Altitude indicates the degree of developmental unfolding of items such as complexity, consciousness, and the number of perspectives one can take. For example, in consciousness development as indicated below, one goes from the capacity to take only a 1st-person perspective, to also being able to take a 2nd-person perspective, to also being able to take a 3rd-person perspective, and so on. Thus, in this example, you can see that the capacity for love increases (from being able to love only me, to being able to love us, to being able to love all of us, to being able to love all sentient beings....). For convenience, Altitude follows the natural colors of the rainbow, so you'll often hear us refer to degree of development or degree of consciousness or degree of capacity to love, etc. by a particular color of the rainbow.

The Four Quadrants


Click on the image to download a copy

According to Integral Theory, there are at least 4 primary dimensions or perspectives through which we can experience the world: subjective, intersubjective, objective, and interobjective. These 4 perspectives, represented graphically, are the upper-left, lower-left, upper-right, and lower-right quadrants.What’s the point of looking at the world through a 4-quadrant lens? Simple answer: Anything less is narrow, partial and fragmented! Integral Theory maintains that all 4 quadrants are real -- and all are important. So, for example, to the question of what is more real, the brain (with its neural pathways and structures) or the mind (with its thoughts and perceptions), Integral Theory answers: BOTH.
