Let us be clear about what Wilber accomplished, because it's genuinely remarkable and deserves to be honored before we extend, challenge, or enrich it: Wilber demonstrated that virtually every major human knowledge system—from physics to poetry, from meditation to neuroscience, from developmental psychology to indigenous wisdom traditions—could be organized into a coherent framework without reducing any of them to
