The Essential Ken Wilber: An Introductory Reader

This is a great compilation of brief passages from Ken's most popular writings. After reading it, you get a pretty good sense of the things that he is trying to convey in dozens of other books that he has written so far.

Having read a couple of Ken's books before, I'm still amazed by the ideas presented in these passages, and I'm very glad that I stumbled upon Ken during my research. I think he is truly the most comprehensive philosophical thinker of our times because he is one of the few who integrated western and eastern thinking in a very beautiful manner. His Integral Framework can change the world for the better if implemented correctly.

This book is also great for a high-level overview of the books Ken has written. At the end of it, there is a list of all of them with brief descriptions and it's very useful if you plan to read most of Ken's work.

So, if you are interested in topics like levels of consciousness, mystical experience, integral spirituality, meditation practice, death, the perennial philosophy, integrating matter, body, soul, and spirit, and so many more, delve deeper into his work.
