    I guess Burn's NDE thread got me doing a little research to day and I came across this site:

    yes it is interesting.

    Integral theory is an all-inclusive framework that draws on the key insights of the world’s greatest knowledge traditions. The awareness gained from drawing on all truths and perspectives allows the Integral thinker to bring new depth, clarity and compassion to every level of human endeavor — from unlocking individual potential to finding new approaches to global-scale problems.

    The Institute’s active scholars represent individuals throughout the world who are presently engaged in writing, teaching or collaborative research in Integral theory with the Institute. True to the breadth of the Integral map, these scholars reflect a wide array of academic backgrounds, disciplines, and methodological approaches.

    Page by page, engage your mind as Integral scholars from a wide variety of backgrounds and disciplines make their contributions to a living conversation at the frontiers of Integral thought.

    The Institute’s programs focus on research, education and leadership for humanity's most pressing problems.

    I enjoy this site. At the forefront of integral is Ken Wilber, amazing author, teacher and philosopher. I intend to stock up on Ken Wilber's books, immensely interested in his integral approach and blend of eastern/ western philosophy/spirituality.

    Thanks for the link Frankie...I am going to miss your topics. You were always presenting things that stopped and made me think and challenged my thinking. I still remember your hallucinogenic threads.

    Thanks for these links. Ken Wilber's writings were a great help to me when I was leaving the Witnesses. I haven't looked into these sites for a bit, but will now.
