Suffering and evil challenge us all, but several principles may help Integral practitioners to respond effectively. These include appreciating the role that unrecognized, limited perspectives (and corresponding worldviews) play in creating suffering and evil, and learning to recognize and release such limitations into more integral stances. Doing this skillfully requires taking up effective, authentic psychological and contemplative disciplines, and especially the disciplines of awakening service or karma yoga, whose central elements are described.Responding to Suffering and Evil: Integral Principles – Integral Lifeintegrallife.comSuffering and evil challenge us all, but several principles may help Integral practitioners to respond effectively.

This presentation will briefly review some of the seminal thinkers that inspired Wilber’s Integral Vision and how it will help create a better and brighter future for us all.Being Integral: Integral-Centaur

The Meaning Crisis, as popularized by Prof. John Vervaeke of the University of Toronto, has become somewhat of a buzz word within the liminal web space. From an integral-developmental perspective, is there just “one” meaning crisis or is it a different crisis of meaning at every stage? And what if the meaning crisis–from a developmental view–is part and parcel of the engine of evolution? What does it actually mean to “awaken from the meaning crisis” if, perhaps, the meaning crisis also comes bearing gifts?When the Meaning Crisis is Necessary – Day 2 – Integral Lifeintegrallife.comThe Meaning Crisis, as popularized by
