Brian Johnson - "I'm a philosopher who's passionate about understanding and living the universal truths while inspiring and empowering people to live at their highest potential. I'm also an entrepreneur who likes creating companies that change the world and I'm a Gemini who likes long walks on the beach and holding hands and spooning and cracking myself up (...but that's another story...)"

So what is Integral Singularity all about anyway? That is a good question. I see it as the convergence of two of the most interesting and powerful movements around today: that is the accelerating rate of technological innovation towards a point of near infinity or singularity (as popularized by people such as Ray Kurzweil) and the rapidly accelerating revolution in Integral Consciousness (as popularized by people like Ken Wilber and others). The goal of this blog will be to chart where these two powerful forces meet, innovations within each domain itself, explore where intersubjectivity ends and subjectivity begins, as well as continue the ongoing quest to reconcile consciousness and intelligence, freedom and fullness, and autonomy and communion.

EMPTYUNIVERSE - "i am life. simply and straightforwardly “life.” this journey begins/continues/ends/begins again. with death as my witness i know that there will never be anything more or less than this. this is beyond possibility — the one reality that extinguishes all doubt. i walk alone through an open field. fearlessly, the field grasses sway and sometimes tremble. i allow perception to sway and tremble with the grassy field. i simply relax and allow the visual field to unfold effortlessly. there is no suffering or loneliness here/there. just perception. and i know that this is blessing enough for anyone who can stop and see. first look — then see."

Original Gravity -When I integrate the different levels of my inner and outer life,I enter into a glorious and miraculous cosmic dance,in harmony with all that is within nd all that is without,from the tiniest atom to the greatest expanse of the universe, I am held and impelled by an original gravity, a force of ancient origin and of a continually unfolding newness,unique and original,and together, you and I and all of creation are balanced, integrated, and complete, at home in orbit around the sphereof all being-ness.

Conversations with Jesus and Buddha - "A few years ago I was living a life that by all appearances was ideal. I had a job I loved, three wonderful children and homes in Malibu and Marin. I also thought I had my health in good order—worked out daily, ate organic foods and hadn't been to an M.D. in twenty years. It was at that point I was diagnosed with stage four throat cancer."

365 and a Wakeup - "Sleep. Blessed, blissful, wonderful sleep. Mother’s milk. A full harvest in a time of famine. The storm that breaks the drought. It is the drug of choice here - assiduously avoided because of the neverending chain of missions, but always craved. If rarity is the measure of a substances worth then here in Iraq, sleep carries a price beyond words. There is no more precious moment in my day then the sublime instant where my mind flickers between consciousness and the dreamworld. In that sliver of time the day seems to shimmer and melt like one of Dali’s paintings - leaving only honey sweet dreams of my other life far from Arabia."

Syntegral - "If integral is the thesis, and dissolution and disarray are the antithesis, then what might a synthesis of these look like? That is the central question to be explored in the writings posted here. After all, do we not live in a world where things come together and are united--where integration holds favour? And yet, at the same time, there is the presence of continual breakdown, of disarray, of dissolution. Both are true. How they touch us, in their tension, is where the story unfolds."

I want to make it clear that my intent is to share what's on my mind at any given moment — and that may not be specific to sculpting a stunning six-pack of abs.

Kensho Godchaser - "Goddess Devotionalism and integral spirituality from a thoughtful Pagan"

But what is the Goddess? There is much of her captured in the myths and worships of the past, particularly in the wisdom of great Goddess devotees such as Sri Ramakrishna. But the Goddess we worship is, as Ken Wilber describes, an omega point in our future and not a relic of our past. She is indeed the Creatrix and the Destroyer, the Mistress of all that is. But her essence in our tradition speaks both of transcendence and immanence. She is, indeed, more than this mere world; were this world to disappear or be destroyed, nothing but Goddess would remain.

Catallaxis: The Integral Economics Weblog - "I will attempt in this blog to model some of that open-mindedness by exploring a much broader range of perspectives than is usually found in other blogs on this subject. In time, my commentary will reveal the contours of a more Integral Economics centered on a new understanding of the market that should satisfy and challenge, in roughly equal measure, both its advocates as well as its critics. And for those who care about such things, I will outline the key features of an economic philosophy that may help to authenticate and legitimate our movement toward a more integral way of doing business."

I hope it'll be useful and not damaging, intimidating, or discouraging to other people. In addition to just sharing the goods straight, after continually exploring for years, I have thoughts, ideas, opinions, conclusions, and suggestions about many not-so-random things.

Song of Sentience ...a playfully serious exploration of Life, Love, and the Divine...

Why philosophy? Why integral philosophy? Because ideas are powerful. Because great ideas are liberating. Like great artworks they lift you above yourself. Awaken new horizons. Open your heart and mind's eye to deeper, more beautiful worlds. Great ideas take you, shake you, slap you, and leave you bruised by a truth more true than you could have imagined. They literally inspire. Such ideas breathe life into what was lifeless. They are a passionate inquiry into the nature of the kosmos. - [via]

WorldChanging - Another World is Here

WorldChanging.com works from a simple premise: that the tools, models and ideas for building a better future lie all around us. That plenty of people are working on tools for change, but the fields in which they work remain unconnected. That the motive, means and opportunity for profound positive change are already present. That another world is not just possible, it's here. We only need to put the pieces together.

Wilber Blog - nope it's not KW. it's from a Wilberphile -

"I encountered the works of Ken Wilber in 1995 after reading Tony Schwartz’ book, What Really Matters, which documents his search for people and movements in America that are seriously exploring the deeper truths of human existence. Schwartz met Wilber during the time that Wilber, already the published author of a half dozen books, was completing Sex, Ecology, and Spirituality, the first volume of his Kosmos trilogy. Schwartz accurately described Wilber as an integrator of Eastern and Western wisdom traditions, but it turns out that this is only the beginning of Wilber’s achievements."

Unspoken - "This blog is the beginning of a process of making who I am known, explicit, public. To many of my friends and colleagues I am an unspoken presence. I am never truly shared, and thus, I am never truly known. For those of you in my life to whom I have remained a mystery, I offer this blog to you. If you are moved to do so, I am honored to have you bear witness to this process. But be forewarned, even though this blog exists for you, I do not. I exist for only One Thing. This blog is an expression of my understanding and relationship to that One Thing, and I shall serve that first, always."

[PASH] blog - "I'm loyal but don't attach to things. I'm ambitious but don't have set goals. I'm distinctive but highly adaptive to situations. I'm hard to imitate but emulate what I like in others. I'm culturally aware but confused about my identity. I'm an extremist but very laid back."

KenWilber.com - "Welcome to the first and only official Ken Wilber website. Thanks for dropping by. I’m Ken, and I’ll take a few seconds to show you around."

"Those of you who know me, know that I don’t exactly seek the limelight. In fact, for 25 years, I have rather successfully avoided it. I have instead spent most of my adult life attempting to construct a general Integral framework that would allow us to include and honor the most number of truths from the most number of sources, premodern to modern to postmodern. This Integral framework allows us to connect the previously unconnected, to build bridges where previously there were motes, and in general begin to weave together the broken and fragmented pieces of a world gone slightly mad. The result is a framework—we also call it an IOS (or “Integral Operating System”)—that allows us to integrate virtually all human endeavors into a comprehensive overview that can be applied to each, thus helping each reach its fullest success, principles, achievement, care, and consciousness."

Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) Blog - "The word "noetic" comes from the ancient Greek nous, for which there is no exact equivalent in English. It refers to "inner knowing," a kind of intuitive consciousness—direct and immediate access to knowledge beyond what is available to our normal senses and the power of reason."

"What are 'Noetic Sciences'?
Noetic sciences are explorations into the nature and potentials of consciousness using multiple ways of knowing—including intuition, feeling, reason, and the senses. Noetic sciences explore the "inner cosmos" of the mind (consciousness, soul, spirit) and how it relates to the "outer cosmos" of the physical world."

INJournals: Ed Kowalczyk - "I read a “Brief History of Everything” in 1996. Finding that book, randomly laid on a table at Coliseum Books in NYC, changed my life forever. Upon finishing it, I knew why I was born, why everything is born, and where everything is headed. I remember meeting Ken for the first time at the Boulder house back in 1997. I was stunned to find that he had every single LIVE album as well as every video and performance that had ever been on TV. It is a memory I will cherish for a long time, even more than MTV Unplugged. If there be soul brothers, we be that."
