Current World Events Through the Lenses of Integral Theory & Spiral Dynamics
Announced on: July 2nd, 2010Summer Discussion Series at Boulder Integral
Beginning Tuesday, 7/13th
Every 2nd and 4th Tuesday, July through September
7pm – 9pm
Donation Encouraged – $5 per session
If you’ve been wondering about how to put recent world events, such as the current oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, into a broader and deeper perspective, so have we!
Let’s really get into the difficult discussions! Let’s really dive deep!
Through a summer discussion series beginning Tuesday, July 13th, we’ll attempt to do just that. Join us for an ongoing facilitated conversation on how we can view current world events through the lenses of Integral Theory and Spiral Dynamics. Rather than trying to “fix” the world’s problems or react against them, a broader, integral perspective can help identify their deeper causes and cultures on a systemic level. Potential evolutionary solutions may then emerge from that point of view.
What’s required is a basic knowledge of Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory, and optionally, the cultural mapping system of Spiral Dynamics as presented by Don Beck. These gatherings will not serve as an educational class for these philosophical systems, but rather as a medium for sharing viewpoints and engaging interactively around these themes. Facilitation will be provided to maintain the conversational focus on an integral perspective.
- Beginning July 13th, meetings will continue every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month through September.
- These ongoing discussions will be held on a drop-in basis, with a requested $5 donation per session.
- If you have questions, please contact info@boulderintegral.org

Can you stream these events on computer? I would love to join but live at the other end of the continent.

This practical application of both Integral Theory and Spiral Dynamics, bring Heaven and Earth into “kitchen sink' reality (ZEN term)..Jolly Good!
This combination is very powerful!

Why not make this discussion accessible to people who don't live anywhere near Boulder, ie on-line????

How about adding a 30 minute segment for calls (questions/comment on topic) from integral institute members living far away? The Oil Spill is a pivotal event in mission redefinition and integral visioning for USCG and the maritime industry. An AQAL/Spiral Dynamics field day.

Hi Victoria, when we have enough resources, we will try and poscast this, but for now, we are having to keep it simple. We do have our thinking caps on to live stream it, but probably not this series. If we do, you will hear from us
