No boundaries without boundaries

In this book Ken explains how we move from Unity Consciousness to the level of the Total Organism or Centaur (where we experience ourselves as separate from our environment), to the Ego Level (where our mind or ego is seen as being separate from our body), to the Persona  Level (where certain aspects of our ego are seen as being more important than others, thus creating the shadow).

This is the movement through the Spectrum of Consciousness.  Every level has potentials and difficulties.  Various therapies, east and west, address different aspects of the spectrum and can therefore be used in those areas presenting difficulties within ourselves.

As we address all these levels, the boundaries we have created (but which were actually never there in the first place) gradually dissolve and we once again experience consciously “No Boundary”.

As we own our shadows, a healthier ego is established.  As we expand our identity from our egos to the centaur, we get in touch with and reown our projected bodies.  Only then can we fully enter an awareness of that which is beyond one’s self.

“I have seen some weird stuff in the past, and then did the green move, I suppose”.

“Sort of a problem for me is that I will buy whatever theories are out there, take them for a spin and see how they fit.”

Kamm, to be honest this does sound rather like “the green move”, but it is in my experience the move we make as we evolve.  However, at some point, we realize that not all that we have allowed in to our experience has equal value.  Green allows in all theories, but pathological green thinks they are all equal.

As we become uncomfortable with this view we become more and more ready to make the jump into second tier.

Here’s a definition from Ken:

“An integral approach acknowledges that all views have a degree of truth, but some views are more true than others, more evolved, more developed, more adequate (Ken Wilber: "Integral Spirituality in Real Life." Beliefnet Essay).

It is certainly true that as you say, “The Integral spin is a hard vehicle to get in”, but once you are in this vehicle, man what a drive!

I am no expert on synchronicity, but I do think that these moments come about when all four quadrants come together in harmony as they should.  (Seem to recall also hearing this in Ken and Corey’s discussion on synchronicity). 

I am unable to answer the question of whether they are “representing archetypes of a possible evolved form of myself?”   That the synchronicities hold a particular significance for you is what  I would suggest you need to explore.
