What Is Integral Theory?

Wilber’s key contribution to philosophy, psychology and human understanding has been his uniting of a plethora of theories and fields into one integrative metatheory, Integral Theory. He has aimed to illuminate how various strands of human knowledge can complement and support one another rather than existing in tension.

What Is Ken Wilber’s AQAL Model?

The AQAL model is a metamodel of human life and reality that attempts to include all possible perspectives on them and show how these perspectives interrelate. It also addresses human growth and tries to forge a holistic framework on how we grow and change and how the many areas of human growth influence one another. The AQAL model proposes five main factors for understanding human psychology. These are All Quadrants, All Levels, All Lines, All States, and All Types.

Who Is Ken Wilber?

Wilber is officially a philosopher, but his work goes beyond the intellect and theorising. He has also immersed himself in deep spiritual practice, discovering profound spiritual truths while also realising the limitations of traditional spirituality. On this basis, he has shown how spirituality can coexist with psychology, human development, shadow work, and much more.

While sometimes falling into nihilism or idealism, Wilber mostly looks forward optimistically, weaving together numerous threads of human potential and transformation. In doing so, he empowers us to create a better tomorrow by refining ourselves, striving to unleash our full potential, and taking bold action.
