Dearest Ken,
you mean so much for us-your life, how you manage it with your sickness, your work, your Higher Self and your translation to us.
Namaste
from Michael Emerson
I wish I could say I am standing on the shoulders of the giant of a mind, Ken Wilber, and seeing an even higher and wider Integral perspective. Not quite. I am sitting in the fanny pack of Ken Wilber, and after 20 years of study, I still can’t see as far. Even the view from Ken’s backside is amazing. His words have changed the way I look at my life and the world. I have read almost every word twice. I only wish I knew how to give more than just money to the Integral movement.

“Tomorrow is my birthday”
Thursday, January 30
“Tomorrow is my birthday. But it’s “Ken Wilber’s” birthday, not the birthday of my Original Face, the great Unborn, the vast expanse of Emptiness untouched by date or duration, tense or time. This infinite ocean of Ease, this vast expanse of Freedom, this lucid sea of Stillness, is what I am in the deepest part of me, the infinite intersection where I am not, and Spirit only is.
There is no birthday for the great Unborn, for that which never comes to be, but is the Suchness of all that is, radiant to infinity. There is no celebration for the timeless moment, which is prior to history and its lies, time and its ugly terrors, duration and its drudgery. There are no gifts for the great Uncreate, the Source of all that is, the boundless Sea of Serenity, that lines the entire Kosmos. There is no song for Always Already, the infinite Freedom gloriously beyond birth and death altogether.
For every sentient being can truly say: in essence I am timeless, in essence I am All – the lines in my face are the cracks in the cosmic egg, supernovas swirl in my heart, galaxies pulse through my veins, stars light up the neurons of my night… And who will sing birthday songs to that? Who will celebrate the vast expanse that sings its songs unheralded in the stillness of the night?”
Ken Wilber: One Taste – Daily Reflections on Integral Spirituality, p. 18.
DONATE
from Robert Joseph
I have always been a searcher for wisdom and spiritual knowledge. I was frustrated. I felt alone because while I sensed some truth in most areas, I did not find any one path satisfying or complete, and often found them dissolving into platitudes or calcifying into dogma. Then a friend gave me Kosmic Consciousness. I listened to all 10 CDs in two marathon days, taking furious notes. Then I went on to read many of Ken’s books (full disclosure — SES is just a door stopper or a reference work for me). Ken Wilber did what no one from Descartes, Hume, Kant, Nietzsche, Camus, Sartre, Kierkegaard, to my college philosophy professors, to my parents, to my greatest fellow searching friends, to drugs, to lonesome meditation without much guidance, to yoga, etc., etc. had been able to do: he disclosed me to myself, and made me feel not alone. For that, I am forever, and quite simply, grateful. I don’t know much about what Ken is going through in life. But I know I want him to keep doing what he has done his whole life. Because it helped me feel comfortable in my own skin, in my own mind, in my own soul. And I know he is right. Ever partial, and ever open to legitimate non-myopic, truly honest criticism, but by and large, goddamnit — he is right. I wish I could give more to this great man. I’ll just say “Thanks, Arhat.”

Thank you, thank you Ken, for your beautiful guidance and contribution to my life. Your passion and commitment to better the world through perspectival taking has born fruit in my life and the lives of those that I’ve touched. You have helped pave the road between I and thou. Much love, and may you be well and happy. Jolene and Jeff
