What is Integral Spirituality?



First presented to the teachers of Integral Spiritual Center’s inaugural gathering in June 2005, this essay outlines the framework necessary for a truly integral spirituality.

This 118-page essay is not to be confused with the 350-page book Integral Spirituality: A Startling New Role for Religion in the Modern and Postmodern World (to be published by Integral Books/Shambhala in the summer of 2006). This book will also be pre-posted in its entirety at www.IntegralSpiritualCenter.org in June, 2006.

(We hope you enjoy this essay, and ask that you please remember that it is a rough draft of a subsequent work, and is not appropriate for quoting or distributing without the author’s permission.)
