Podcasts about integral consciousness

For the 50th (?) episode of the Integral Stage's Author Series, Layman meets with novelist and linguistic philosopher, Lisa Maroski, to explore her ideas around the enactive power of language and speech, and her experiments in finding new forms of language to more deeply embody liminal and nondual sensibilities.From the book's description:In Embracing Paradox, Evolving Language: Expressing the Unity and Complexity of Integral Consciousness, L.E. Maroski proposes that humanity is poised on the cusp of a transformation of consciousness that requires not only a shift in values and perspectives, but also a shift in a basic technology we take for granted-language. Because we use language to create social structures and institutions, including education, governance, and our most intimate relationships, the structure of our language contributes to the way we structure those creations. Maroski questions the cultural assumptions that are built into the structure of language-primarily English-and invites the reader to imagine and ultimately to help develop novel structures of language that arise from different assumptions. To do so, she shows how we can draw inspiration from paradoxical topological forms, such as the Möbius strip and Klein bottle, as they embody both unity and duality/multiplicity. By seeing our reality not simply in terms of either/or but also in terms of both (many)/and, perhaps our feelings of fragmentation and the stultifying oppositions that have polarized society can transform into appreciation for the wholeness of all existence.L.E. Maroski blends philosophy, psychology, and science with the spiritual to describe her vision for a new type of language and to provide stepping stones for possible ways to express the paradoxical wholeness of Life. In Embracing Paradox, Evolving Language, her words ring out as a clarion call to visionaries who seek to bring into existence a world of many worlds that works for everybody.Embracing Paradox, Evolving Languagehttps://www.amazon.com/Embracing-Paradox-Evolving-Language-Consciousness/dp/1961334100

Where is our global culture today? How did we get here? What steps might we need to take now to shape a future that could become a saving grace for humanity? It feels special to find a clear, cohesive and compelling picture, one that encompasses the insights that help us make sense and meaning out of the tumultuous times we live in and answer these questions.We dive deep into a new, emerging worldview in this conversation with Steve McIntosh, a leading developmental philosopher focusing on the evolution of consciousness and culture. Steve is the author of Developmental Politics, The Presence of the Infinite, Evolution's Purpose and Integral Consciousness and the Future of Evolution. He is co-founder of the Institute for Cultural Evolution.With Steve's help we trace the major forces that shaped human history and culture, from the Renaissance and Enlightenment, through the fuller development of the Modern era, to Postmodern culture, and into today's search for a new truth. We view the past with a new understanding that these are not fixed periods of history, but a form of living consciousness that evolves inside us.As the first Enlightenment opened up our understanding of the external universe, the new worldview that has been emerging promises to illuminate the interior universe of consciousness and connection. We actively contribute to the evolutionary process when we bring to life the universal values of truth, beauty and goodness.  Many more enlivening insights and profound understandings emerge in the conversation.This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change.

It's not just this quest for the good life, it's also the quest to know what's true, and the quest to make our circumstances more beautiful. More beautiful architecture, more beautiful homes, more beautiful bodies. Those are all ways that we're lured to make things better. And so understanding that as an attractive force, or a kind of gravity, on consciousness, that the evolutionary impulse that our sense is responding to - that begins to illuminate what it is that we're trying to define and understand better.” (Steve)“The greatest human purpose, at least while we're in this world, is to contribute to the evolution of the noosphere because, by doing so, we're contributing to the purpose of the larger universe as a whole. And so just being able to land that truth can really help people appreciate how science and spirituality are pointing to the same thing, properly interpreted, that I think can go a long way toward helping to plant the seeds for this next emergent worldview.” (Steve) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception WebsiteAviv's LinkedIn Aviv's TwitterAviv's WebsiteEvolution, Consciousness, and the New Truth with Steve McIntosh

In today's very special podcast we will re-air a discussion that was originally recorded and produced by our good friends at the East-West Psychology Department of the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) for their own program, the East-West Psychology Podcast (https://east-westpsychologypodcast.com/). The discussion itself is an introduction to a set of two conferences to be held at the California Institute of Integral Studies in celebration of “150 Years of Sri Aurobindo, the Pioneer of Integral Consciousness.” The conferences will take place over the course of a week, starting on September 23, 2023 and concluding on September 30. This discussion is hosted by the East-West Psychology Podcast producers, Stephen Julich and Jonathan Kay. In this conversation, Circle for Original Thinking host and current Jean Gebser Society president, Glenn Aparicio Parry is a guest, along with Debashish Banerji, Chairman of the East-West Psychology Department. We hope this program will provide our listeners with some background on these very important conferences, and the life and work of Sri Aurobindo (1872-1950) who was the key figure in the development of a form of spiritual practice he called  “integral yoga,” as well as the life and work of the Swiss philosopher and visionary, Jean Gebser, author of the magnum opus, The Everpresent Origin. THE CONFERENCES: The first conference, “Sustainability and Contemplative Civilization: The Integral Vision of Sri Aurobindo,” organized by the East-West Psychology Department (EWP) and the Asian Contemplative and Transcultural Studies concentration (ACTS), will engage with the possibilities, problems and potential of a sustainable civilization based on a contemplative praxis of deep relationality and extended identity as implicit in the vision and teaching of Sri Aurobindo and as explicit in the experimental community of Auroville.   The second conference, “The Emergence of Integral Consciousness: Jean Gebser, Sri Aurobindo, Carl Jung, Teilhard De Chardin,” organized by the Jean Gebser Society, will address the coming integral age as foreseen by Gebser, Aurobindo, Jung, and Teilhard de Chardin. Each of these visionary thinkers in their own way foresaw the emergence of a new structure of consciousness beyond the limits of rational thought. Debashish Banerji is a Bengali scholar and Haridas Chaudhuri Professor of Indian Philosophies and Cultures and the Doshi Professor of Asian Art at CIIS. He is also the Program Chair for the East-West Psychology department. Prior to CIIS, he served as Professor of Indian Studies and Dean of Academics at the University of Philosophical Research in Los Angeles, CA.Stephen Julich is currently core faculty in the East-West Psychology Department at the California Institute of Integral Studies where he teaches classes Jungian Depth Psychology and Western Mysticism, Magic and Esotericism.Jonathan Kay is a transcultural musician, and is currently a PhD student in the department of East-West Psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco under the mentorship of Dr. Debashish Banerji.We wish to again state our very deep gratitude to the people at the East-West Psychology Department and the California Institute of Integral Studies for the critical work that they do every day, and their generosity in sharing the content of this episode with Circle for Original Thinking. For more information about the conferences:https://www.ciis.edu/events/150-years-of-sri-aurobindo-pioneer-of-integral-consciousnessAlso please visit:https://www.ciis.edu/https://www.ciis.edu/academics/department-east-west-psychologyhttps://east-westpsychologypodcast.com/https://gebser.org/www.jonathankay.ca

Carolyn & Laila talk about their enthusiasm for Ken Wilber's Integral Theory and discuss what it takes to inhabit integral consciousness & eventually grow beyond into transpersonal consciousness.

The conversation around adult development and integral consciousness continues to expand and evolve. In this conversation with author and philosopher Jeremy Johnson we explore Jean Gebser's notion of development, temporics, the unperspectival, the perspectival and the aperspectival, the move from sense-directed thinking to “senseful awareing”, the magic and the mythic and the invitation of this moment. Jeremy Johnson is an author (Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness), publisher (Integral Imprint), managing editor (Integral Leadership Review), podcaster (Mutations) and integral philosopher. His academic research, writing, and publishing advocates new forays into integrative thinking and praxis—aligning the scholastic, poetic, and spiritual—as existentially crucial work for pathfinding in a time of planetary crisis. Jeremy currently serves as president for the International Jean Gebser Society, and is working on his doctorate in the Philosophy of Religion at the California Institute of Integral Studies. His second book, Fragments of an Integral Future (Integral Imprint) is forthcoming in late 2022. → Our live online coach training “The Neuroscience of Change” starts September 29th 2022 ← Visit coachesrising.com to see our acclaimed online coach trainings and other offerings.

As we participate more and more consciously in our own unfolding, we need to ask what is working, what is holding us back, and how can we develop as individuals and collectively in a way that is in harmony with the wider ecosystem? In this conversation with Spring Cheng, Steve March and Jeremy Johnson we explore the concept of liminality, animated intelligence, constructive and destructive developmental methods, two key pathways to creating change, our relationality and connection to the ecosphere, and embracing diversity within and between us. Spring Cheng: Spring Cheng is the co-founder of Resonance Path Institute, a non-profit organization based in Seattle that pioneers research and practice to restore the sensing-feeling-Self to serve the emergence of collective consciousness and wholesome social organizations, and co-author of The Resonance Code.

Here is another very special episode of my podcast devoted to Integral Theory and Holacracy. This time we sat down with Dennis Wittrock, one of the early pioneers of Holacracy in Europe. He was a host and translator of the first Holacracy workshops in 2007 in Europe, when the practice was still entirely unknown. Today Dennis is a certified Holacracy coach and currently works for an official Holacracy provider Xpreneurs. Apart from that, he is also filling roles for encode.org, a consulting company powered by Holacracy which is creating legal, social, and financial foundations for self-organization. Previously he supported for 2,5 years Holacracy adoption at Hypoport SE, a fintech-company listed in the German stock-market (SDAX) with over 2.000 employees as internal Holacracy coach. His thought and action is deeply influenced by the topic of transdisciplinarity and Ken Wilber's integral methodological pluralism. Dennis is the founder and co-director of the Integral European Conference (2014/ 2016) and was CEO and board member of the German Integral Association Integrales Forum and the German Integral Academy (DIA) for several years. We met with Dennis at the Holacracy Forum in Amsterdam. The conversation took us deep into Dennis's personal journey through the early attraction with the Ken Wilber's integral theory to the fascination and engagement with the Holacracy practice today. Hope you enjoy! “Ask yourself how can all these different perspectives on the same phenomena be right, or become more curious about things when something doesn't fit your worldview. Under which circumstances can somebody come up with these ideas? What are the parameters that need to be in place for this truth to emerge for this person in that moment? What is the place you have to stand on, or what are the shoes you have to stand in for those perspectives to make sense? I think that's something we are in deep need to make better connections, especially in the age of hyperpolarization where people stop asking questions. If something doesn't fit their worldview, then you're immediately the enemy, which is terrible. So we need more curiosity, more real listening. I think that's what I would like to leave the listeners with.” – Dennis Wittrock Listen and enjoy!

What does it mean to be in a liminal space? How does that relate to the epic transformation of human consciousness that we are currently experiencing? These are the sorts of big ideas explored on today's show, with guest Jeremy Johnson. This is a deep dive into philosophy, integral ecology, poetics and so much more, as we consider the birthing of a new humanity, and a new structure of consciousness on this planet. We are both integral philosophers so, as you might expect, we both adopt a holistic and multi-disciplinary worldview. Jeremy is an author (Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness), publisher (Integral Imprint), managing editor (Integral Leadership Review), podcaster (Mutations) and integral philosopher.

This is episode 3 in our series on The Biblical Narrative, Integral Consciousness and Regeneration. The importance of world-centric thinking is showing itself in the Russian invasion of the Ukraine. All separation thinking leads to discrimination and denomination. The Narrative is a story of the evolution or growth of integral conscious (God as all in all) from ethnocentric thinking that divides people into tribes to a new tier of thinking that has eyes to see human identity as universal.

The global conversation is happening and synergy groups are formulating a new unitive narrative based on world-centric thinking. All fields of study are joining in and this has led to a movement of convergence. But does the Biblical Narrative affirm the principles being put forth by science, art, technology, economics, education and many more? Or do we water down the Biblical Narrative by proposing that God is in this new way of thinking? Today we discuss these questions further in order to see where we fit into an ever changing planet.  I believe we are on the cusp of an amazing breakthrough for a Narrative that is becoming of less and less interest to people.

This first episode in this series compares the current narrative of Integral Consciousness with the Biblical Narrative. There's a big discussion going on about the concept of convergence. More and more people are seeing something exciting amid the chaos. It seems that science, art, technology, education etc. are coming together to create a new unitive narrative. Amazing! Some 2,000 years ago the apostle John said that all nations would walk in the light of a New Jerusalem as a cataclysmic shift in cosmology moved humanity into a New Heaven and Earth. This is the space of convergence of all fields of study and experience.   #BiblicalNarrative #Theology #convergence #integral #cosmology #integraltheory #consciousness #spiritualawakening 

JF and Phil have been talking about doing a show on The Glass Bead Game since Weird Studies' earliest beginnings. It is a science-fiction novel that alights on some of the key ideas that run through the podcast: the dichotomy of work and play, the limits and affordances of institutional life, the obscure boundary where certainty gives way to mystery... Throughout his literary career, Hesse wrote about people trying to square their inner and outer selves, their life in the spirit and their life in the world. The Glass Bead Game brings this central concern to a properly ambiguous and heartbreaking conclusion. But the novel is more than a brilliant work of philosophical or psychological literature. It is also an act of prophecy -- one that seems intended for us now. Header image by Liz West, via Wikimedia Commons (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Green_marbles_2.jpg).

A tiny virus did what climate scientists and the Paris accords could not do. It shut everything down. Mother Earth took a breath. The air and water became clearer and cleaner.

Jeremy Johnson and I shared an epic adventure of a discussion. We delve deep into the ideas of Jean Gebser and trace the contours of just how prescient the ideas in Ever Present Origin really were. We touch on the evolution of perspective throughout art history, the promising synthesis of the Integral movement with Cosmo-Localism and also the progressive legacy of Michael Brooks. There is poetry, complex ideas, concrete ideas and I even have a go at pronouncing the 50 syllable long german word for the 'phenomenology of becoming consciousness'. It was a real pleasure to spend some time in Jeremy's verdant noosphere, I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did. https://www.mutations.blog/ A link to Jeremys book Seeing Through The World: Jean Gebser & Integral Consciousness

In this episode, we talk about spiral dynamics. What is it? How does it help frame spirituality and evolution of consciousness?

Jeremy Johnson is the author of "Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness" and President of the Gebser Society. "Seeing Through the World" is a tour de force and a required book for any integral library. John son writes, "Gebser offers us a way of thinking about the present that is difficult to disagree with in any of its major points: the structures of consciosuness are palpable realities that can be recognized by the careful reader in a concrete way, the Janus-faced interim age between the mental and the integral inform us on our current crisis between technology and the biosphere, capitalism and a future menas of distributive and immanent Gaian politics." Impossible to cover the intensity and range of Gebser's work in this small podcast, I attempt to have Jeremy give his best shot at describing how we arrived at our current crisis and a possible Gebserian prescription for its remedy. I was advised to never discuss religion and politics at parties, but if we truly are on the cusp on an Integral age in this participitory cosmos then there is no hiding from spirituality or our eco/socio/politico orientations. How can we transition from "homo faber to homo integer"? How can we restore the sacredness to our individual lives, institutions and culture? Please join Jeremy and I as we explore topics that I believe are essential to the salvation and future of humanity.  You can find Jeremy Johnson @ https://www.patreon.com/jeremyjohnson and on Twitter @ jdj_writes

What is Integral Consciousness? How do people manipulate the power of story and myth for the commodification of the human spirit? How is single vision destroying our democracy? These are just a few of the topics in this week’s conversation with Scott Preston. Join us for a thoughtful discussion on how the return of the ancient force or 'enlightened ego-consciousness' requires us to move beyond the individual into integrated wholeness or what Scott refers to as four-fold vision. In this Episode:~ We explore the integration of the 4-fold vision or the actualities of integral consciousness~ How the internet is used as a proxy for our latent human potentialities ~ He defines technocratic shamanism and the rise in the commodification of the human spirit through story and technology.~ We look at the integrated whole or the movement from the universal into individuation.Resources:The Chrysalis Blog at https://longsworde.wordpress.com/Surviving Death on Netflix.com

Our first 3 episodes have traced the evolution of Christological hermeneutics over the last 2,000 years. The 3 world views of Traditional, Modern and Postmodern have all contributed to thousands of denominated, separated groups who share one common theme. When Theology has encountered Christology it resulted in a world religion.  But those who write and research in the field of Integral Consciousness point to the appearance of a new level or stage of hermeneutics. An integral approach to Theology and the role of Christology within it results in an outcome beyond religion. The Narrative itself becomes the pointing finger toward that which is Ultimate.  We have seen in the last episode that attachment to form is common to all 3 previous worldviews with regard to identity. But what about the Biblical Narrative as a form? How should we understand the role and function of narratives in general? What about other narratives? And let’s recall the statement of Jerry Martin, “Is TWW a form of comparative theology? Yes, if it is understood as a Comparative Theology Without Walls. But it is an alternative to those forms of comparative theology that are essentially confessional, seeking to enhance one’s theology by studying another tradition.” Note how the concern of any comparative theology revolves around its forms. We will look at 2 specific chapters in the TWW book for this discussion. First will be Paul Knitter, author of “Without Buddha I Could Not Be a Christian.” Secondly we’ll consider the work of Jeffery D. Long on “A Hinduism Without Walls? Exploring The Concept of The Avatar Interreligiously.” To view this Zoom video recording click HERE #TheologyWithoutWalls #Theology #Spirituality #SpiritualButnotReligious #PostReligion #PostReligious #Integral #IntegralTheology #Bible #Buddhism #Hinduism #Transnarrative #Christology #Christianity #SpiralDynamics

The German poet and philosopher Jean Gebser's major work, The Ever-Present Origin, is a monumental study of the evolution of consciousness from prehistory to posthistory. For Gebser, consciousness adopts different "structures" at different times and in different contexts, and each structure reveals certain facets of reality while potentially occluding others. An integral human being is one who can utilize all of the structures according to the moment or situation. As Gebserian scholar Jeremy Johnson explains in this episode, modern humans are currently experiencing the transition from the "perspectival" structure which formed in the late Middle Ages to the "aperspectival," a new way of seeing and being that first revealed itself in the art of the Modernists. Grokking what the aperspectival means, and what it might look like, is just one of the tasks Jeremy, Phil and JF set themselves in this engaging trialogue. Jeremy D.

Jeremy Johnson is an author, editor, and teacher. He founded the new media learning platform Nura Learning and works for Revelore Press. I spoke with Jeremy about the evolution of consciousness, new media and digital technologies, and the work of Jean Gebser, who is the focal point of Jeremy's new book Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness. Gebser's work on the phenomenology of consciousness and its ongoing mutations will be of interest to anyone trying to make new sense of our emerging planetary and digital cultures.

Jeremy Johnson is the author of Seeing Through the World: Jean Gebser and Integral Consciousness. Seeing Through the World introduces the reader to the work of German-Swiss philosopher, poet, and intellectual mystic Jean Gebser. Writing in the mid-20th century during a period of intense cultural transformation and crisis in Europe, Gebser intuited a series of mutational leaps in the history of human consciousness, the latest of which emerging was the "integral" structure, marked by the presence of a concept Gebser called time-freedom. Jeremy says that Gebser's structures of consciousness are as significant an ontological insight as Carl Jung's "reality of the psyche." Yet, until now, very little secondary literature has been available in the English-speaking world as it relates to Gebser and his work. And, until now, very few podcasts have been recorded about Gebser and his work, but that is why Jeremy is here: to guide us through these structures and to show us how this integral structure of consciousness is a means of divination, a crystal ball we can scry with to further illuminate what it is about our current age that seems so damn different. A lot of scrying coming up, indeed, and a lot of prying too, because we’re pulling the lid back on that third eye of yours and pushing our way into that ear canal with another case of this nasty sonically transmitted discourse.   PATREON EXTENSION Listen at patreon.com/occulture Gebser’s concept of Origin Gebser’s concept of time-freedom Westworld & mass consciousness shifts The synergy between Gebser’s work & recent guest Douglas Rushkoff’s Team Human book   RESOURCES Seeing Through the World on IndieBound Seeing Through the World on Amazon Jeremy’s website Jeremy on Facebook Jeremy on Instagram Jeremy on Twitter Jeremy’s podcast Nura Learning   DONATE If recurring monthly support via Patreon isn’t your thing, we do accept one time-donations via PayPal, Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple.

In less than three months, Pete Buttigieg, the 37-year-old mayor of South Bend Indiana, (population 102,000), has gone from political anonymity to the top tier of candidates in the Democratic race for president of the United States. What accounts for Mayor Pete’s blast out of the political gate? His resume certainly ticks the boxes: Harvard […] The post Mayor Pete’s X-Factor appeared first on The Daily Evolver.

The Intellectual Dark Web — the term was coined by IDW member Eric Weinstein — refers to a loosely bound worldwide internet community of over a hundred major thinkers (and hundreds of millions of views) who do not find any present day intellectual trends to be that inviting. They don’t like the far Right, but they don’t like the far Left either — they’re looking for a much more unified and inclusive ways of thinking. In an article posted on the Rebel Wisdom website — a website that was created in part due to a very positive response to the work of Jordan Peterson — David Fuller makes the following observation: “It was while watching these two interviews in quick succession—Dave Rubin’s talk with Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson, and his discussion with Eric and Bret Weinstein—that I came to my conclusion of what the conversation actually represented! It mapped clearly onto a model I was familiar with—the philosopher Ken Wilber’s idea of ‘Integral’ consciousness as an essential evolutionary leap. I’m going to argue that the conversation is an early but spontaneous manifestation of a more advanced way of thinking that Wilber calls ‘Integral.’ I’m going to apply Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory to the Intellectual Dark Web….” Integral Theory — or technically, Integral Metatheory — seems to be applicable here because it is basically an attempt to draw together as many different approaches to truth as we possibly can and integrate them in a unified framework. Integral sometimes refers to all these different truths as ones that include Waking Up, Growing Up, Cleaning Up, Opening Up, and Showing Up.

A conversation with Doshin Michael Nelson, founder of Integral Zen. The upside of the Green postmodern stage of development is astonishing. After countless centuries of brutality, culminating in the horrors of World War II, this new leading edge of consciousness emerged with an ethos of sensitivity and a mission to rehabilitate the victims of history, including the slaves of the Red power stage, the sinners of the Amber traditional stage and the losers of the Orange modern stage, as well as to grant a new moral status to the domains of animals and nature. The downside of the Green altitude is that it has lost faith in humanity. It is allergic to truth claims, it ridicules convention and is deeply suspicious of power. It's role is deconstructive, which it often plays so thoroughly that there is nothing left for its adherents to hold on to. Welcome to the cutting edge of human evolution in the 21st-century! In this episode Jeff is interviewed by Doshin Michael Nelson, founder of Integral Zen, about the nature of Green and the Integral way forward.

A great interview with tennis coach, Scott Ford.  Around 40 years ago he developed a technique for getting into "flow" state or the "zone."  Until that point, it was believed that an athlete stumbled into "flow" or the "zone" at random and there was no way to achieve it at will.  Scott Ford found a way.
