Spirit and turiya

Posted November 10th, 2008 by svein

 

The integral model describes 3 states and realms:

Gross, subtle and causal realms, which are experienced in the waking, dream or deep dreamless sleep states, respectively.

Additionally, theres is two more states: Turiya (The 4th state, the ever-present Witness) and Turiyatita (Nondual, One Taste). Technically, those two are not states, since states come and go.

In his kosmology Wilber divides Reality into the unmanifest (Spirit, Nirvana) and the manifest world (Samsara). And Spirit throwed itself outward (involution) to create our manifest world in the Big Bang.

Question: Is Spirit and Turiya the same?
