In a profound, comprehensive, and unique study of consciousness, Wilber was the first to suggest in a systematic way that the great psychological systems of the West could be integrated with the noble contemplative traditions of the east.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo this day Spectrum of Consciousness remains the unequivocal classic in the area of transpersonal psychology, and has been the prominent reference point for all subsequent attempts at integrating psychology and spirituality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLike radiation and light, consciousness, suggests Wilber, established a multiplicity of aspects as it steps down into time and space. Thus, as a spectrum, it can be studied legitimately on one or more of its wavelengths. Viewing consciousness in this wag, we can see that seemingly disparate disciplines each speak to a different wavelength of awareness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEXPERTS FROM REVIEWS:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor twenty years, Ken Wilber’s writings have been awakening the Western culture from the dogmatic slumber of reductive thinking.
