Book Description
Thinking and writing in a form of brief explorations, we might take another look at habitually recited subjects from a different perspective of inquiry. Our collective human experience learns to combine insights of traditional wisdom with accurate observations on the moving present. Such is the intuitive work of re-balancing a personal outlook as well as an economy. Instead of insisting that knowledge be limited to any single belief system as the only relevant method of reasoning, one can develop appreciation for other ways of knowing. A better understanding of intrinsic strengths and sensitivities contributed by various cultures will open paths to achieving creative potential.

short lyrical prose essays... ...collected insights and ideas... From the author's perspective, many patterned moral definitions are so automatically taken for granted to be the exclusive province of organized religion.

Trump and a Post-Truth World
Author: Ken Wilber
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 1611805619
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
A provocative and balanced examination of our social and political situation in the wake of the Trump presidency—by a cutting-edge philosopher of our times The world is in turmoil. As populist waves roil in the UK, Europe, Turkey, Russia, Asia—and most visibly, the U.S., with the election of Donald Trump—nationalist and extremist political forces threaten the progress made over many decades. Democracies are reeling in the face of nihilism and narcissism. How did we get here? And how, with so much antagonism, cynicism, and discord, can we mend the ruptures in our societies? In this provocative work, philosopher Ken Wilber applies his Integral approach to explain how we arrived where we are and why there is cause for hope. He lays much of the blame on a failure at the progressive, leading edge of society. This leading edge is characterized by the desire to be as just and inclusive as possible, and to it we owe the thrust toward women’s rights, the civil rights movement, the environmental movement, and the concern for oppression in all its forms. This is all evolutionarily healthy. But what is unhealthy is a creeping postmodernism that is elitist, “politically correct,” insistent on an egalitarianism that is itself paradoxically hierarchical, and that looks down on “deplorables.” Combine this with the techno-economic demise of many traditional ways of making a living, and you get an explosive mixture. As Wilber says, for some Trump voters: “Everywhere you are told that you are fully equal and deserve immediate and complete empowerment, yet everywhere you are denied the means to actually achieve it. You suffocate, you suffer, and you get very, very mad.” It is only when members of society’s leading edge can heal themselves that a new, Integral evolutionary force can emerge to move us beyond the social and political turmoil of our current time to offer genuine leadership toward greater wholeness.
