It is a misconception to think of I,
We, and It as, body, mind, and spirit, as Ken Wilber does in his
“integral” philosophy. We need most to see the world the way
sociobiology sees the world, which places these things in a hierarchy
from the most powerful instincts of the I, up through the We, and
finally to the least powerful It. We need to work with the realities
of real life, of real human nature, and real religion, if we are to
develop any kind of harmony in the social structures of the world.
It has been hard for people to accept
that evolutionary selection takes place at the We level, the group
level first, and the I and It levels then adapt or relate to group
selection. We certainly do not need to accept, and should not, totalitarian ethnic imperialism in order to to accept and harmonize
these natural facts of human nature and evolution into our social
structures.
The problem with Wilber's integral
structure, like the problem with mystical religions, is that they
grossly devalue the material world in promoting supposedly
nonmaterial states of human consciousness. It is killing the problem
rather than dealing with it. And it is also misconceiving the basis
of religion and philosophy. If all the world reached the bliss state
of consciousness, which now only 1% can reach, mankind would probably
die out.
The bliss state of consciousness is not
Godhood. What has been formerly defined as “spiritual” needs to
be redefined as supermaterial, because the material and supermaterial
world are the vehicle by which we evolve to Godhood. It's that
simple, or difficult. And body, mind and spirit alone do not define
this structure correctly.
The mind evolves with the body, from
the sensory mind to the supermaterial mind, within a material and
supermaterial body. And the Spirit-Will To Godhood, which activates
the body, also evolves along with the body, which is the vehicle the
Spirit-Will uses to evolve to Godhood, from the material to
supermaterial Godhood, shaped by evolution.
It is time to exhume the
material-supermaterial world in religion, and unblock the real Path
To Godhood.
