If Awakening is the end of seeking, then Liberation is the end of the seeker. Many on the path glimpse their true nature and experience what we call awakening… a moment when the veil lifts and the search collapses. But often, the subtle patterns of the seeker, the vasanas, the samskaras, the deep unconscious tendencies, continue to run quietly in the background. Liberation is not another teaching, technique, or philosophy. It is a direct pointing to what remains when the path itself dissolves… when there is no one left to practice, no ground left to stand on, and no distance between presence and the spontaneous unfolding of life. This film invites you beyond the threshold, past the initial glimpse, into the silence that is always here. Not an end, and not a beginning, but pointing to that which never began and never ends, that which was never born and never dies.

Ken Wilber in an Insightful Discussion on Integrating Spirituality, Science, and Human Development
Join an insightful discussion between Andrew Holecek and Ken Wilber on integrating spirituality, science, and human development. They discussed Wilber’s new book “Finding Radical Wholeness” and how it provides a comprehensive overview of waking up, growing up, opening up, cleaning up, and showing up as vectors of transformation. A major topic was distinguishing between waking up experiences and growing up stages, as well as clarifying the pre-trans fallacy around interpreting early fusion states as enlightenment. They also dialogued around expanding notions of matter and consciousness, with Wilber arguing that interiority exists at all scales from quarks to humans. Overall, the discussion provided valuable insights into integral theory, stages of human development, and how to apply these concepts through integral life practice to facilitate personal and social evolution.
