Brother Wayne Teasdale - The Supreme Identity

If, as historian Arnold Toynbee put it, the introduction of Buddhism into the West "may well prove to be the most important event of the 20th century," we might also argue that the re-discovery of the contemplative roots of Christianity will be equally important. And as we enter the 21st century, it stands to reason that the recognition of a common mystical ground between Buddhism, Christianity, and the other World Religions will be the most important event of all.

In this clip, Brother Wayne Teasdale and Ken Wilber discuss the revelation of your Ultimate Identity as God, and the relationship of this "Supreme Identity" to your everyday life.

Ken Wilber - The Sky Turns into a Big Blue Pancake and Falls on Your Head

If a piano falls on your head, your next stop is probably going to be the Bardo. But according to Ken Wilber, if a big blue pancake falls on your head, you've merely realized nonduality! In this video clip, Ken explains emptiness and form, consciousness and the world, and your own syrup-splattered Original Face. Yummy!
