Healing Integral

“…your Integral Deep Listening is brilliant, and just the wakeup that IT & P (Integral Theory and Practice) needs. Your parallel applications of Lila, politics and the Integral community provide the best analysis I have seen in that regard.” Lex Neale

Healing Integral 1:Toward a Global Re-Alignment

“The election of Donald Trump was a mega-earthquake for Ken Wilber’s Integral AQAL and for “spiritual elites” everywhere. The first of a two-part series on the causes of this major disruption, “Healing Integral, 1:Toward a Global Re-Alignment,” examines how elitism and an over-emphasis on raising consciousness caused the spiritual community to be caught wrong-footed and be thrown into dismay and even despair. It then presents concrete recommendations for increasing its credibility and mass appeal. “Healing Integral, 2: Transforming the Future,” its sequel, examines how an over-emphasis on the self as well as key words used by integralists and other spiritual elites, actually block the transformations of mankind these groups seek to birth.”

 

“How can spiritual elites and Ken Wilber’s Integral AQAL best use Donald Trump’s election as a wake-up call to transform themselves to reach a broader audience? The second of this two-part series, “Healing Integral 2: Transforming the Future,” examines how an over-emphasis on the self as well as key words used by integralists and other spiritual elites actually block the transformations of mankind these groups seek to birth and proposes a radical multi-perspectivalism as an important step forward. “Healing Integral 1:Toward a Global Re-Alignment,” the first of this two-part series on the causes of this major disruption, examines how elitism and an over-emphasis on raising consciousness caused the spiritual community to be caught wrong-footed and to be thrown into dismay and even despair. It then presents concrete recommendations for increasing its credibility and mass appeal.”

Download  & Pay What Feels Right

You can buy the original versions of Part 1, Toward a Global Re-Alignment, and Part 2, Transformations for the Future, at the fixed price of $9.95 each here, but I’ve also chosen to make the books available online, without a pay wall. The idea is, “We are moving toward an open-source world, where we give freely and receive freely in return. I cannot know what the book is worth to you, so I’m not sure a fixed price makes much sense.”

There are books I have bought that ended up not meaning much, while others were provocative, challenging and transformative in the way I see the world. Paying the same price for both, just because I didn’t know upfront, has often struck me as  odd. I would have liked to pay much more than the list price in some cases, and sometimes less in others.

So here is the experiment: I give you the book, and you give back whatever it has been worth to you.

How does it work?

1. Put a note in your calendar some time in the future (say in a month’s time) to consider what you’d like to gift back, if you liked the book.
2. Email Joseph.Dillard@Gmail.com and request your book.
3. If you do not choose to pay now you will receive an automatic reminder in a month to remind you, with a link to payment via PayPal.
4. You can click on the button below the book to pay for your book via PayPal.

It’s an experiment in abundance where I trust that when I give, I will also receive.
