Ken Wilber Books

Has anyone read any of Ken Wilbers books?

I’m pondering which one to start with. I was considering Integral Transformation but I also heard he has over 200 written books ?

Suggestions?

I've read 3 and liked them all. Integral spirituality was my favorite and I think a great place to start.

Integral psychology is also great. The religion of tomorrow is the deepest but very long and hard.

Ken is the goat. I watch the Ken show on his youtube every month! great stuff.

@Cocolove thank you! That’s great hear you have some background knowledge on Wilber’s work. He is a truely inspiring visionary. I might aim at reading all of those and start with the integral transformation ?

I've read some of The Religion of Tomorrow. I think the book is far too long winded. He repeats himself, going down massive tangents all the time. It's definitely in depth and technical if that's what you're after. But it's a lot of rambling.


Hark ye yet again — the little lower layer. All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event — in the living act, the undoubted deed — there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the white whale is that wall, shoved near to me. Sometimes I think there's naught beyond. But 'tis enough.

I read Integral Life Practice from him. It's like all the practices he puts on his books in just one book. It's the book for doing the work. It glosses over many areas and gives superficial advice but also gives many techniques together I woudn't find in other places so it kinda balances out.
