Varela

[edit]

Varela wasn't associated with Integral Institute and is now dead (since 2001). It doesn't make sense to include him in a present-tense list of "notable members" and his placement in the list is dubious.

Reliable Sources, In line references

[edit]

This group needs some sources to show it's notability for encyclopedic purposes. There are no google news reports when searched using the term "Integral Institute". and the hits on a web search turn up only references to other integral studies web sites (which will not count as reliable sources for an article like this. We need some kind of outside the group notability. --Rocksanddirt 04:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

renamed

[edit]

Integral University seems to be renamed Integral Degrees Slark 20:24, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

IU hasn't been renamed, but I think they added this concept because their current degrees are all hosted by other universities whilst they are waiting to start with IU as a full-fledged and acknowledged university. This is my view, and should ideally be corroborated by somebody at IU. Inisus (talk) 12:33, 10 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wilber as mystic

[edit]

I would like to start a discussion on the definition of Wilber as a mystic in the first line of this article:

"The Integral Institute is a think-tank founded in 1998 by American mystic Ken Wilber."

If we follow the Ken Wilber hyperlink we get:

Kenneth Earl Wilber II (born January 31, 1949) is an American author who has written about adult development, developmental psychology, philosophy, worldcentrism, ecology, and stages of faith.

This definition is more factual as it describes Wilber primarily as an author. Neither does it mention that Wilber is a mystic. So if this definition doesn't why do it on the Integral Institute page?

I'm not saying that Wilber isn't a mystic, but rather that this isn't the most relevant piece of information about him. Author or even thinker would be more appropriate, in my humble opinion.

[edit]

@Basileias, I think the JFKU and Fielding links are important, while the kenwilber.com link belongs to the article about Ken Wilber, myilp.com was a double link and integralnaked doesn't seem to me any more so relevant to Integral Institute. Please change it if you disagree. --Pevos (talk) 21:12, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is Integral Institute defunct?

[edit]

no website at http://integralinstitute.org or http://integralinstitute.com . Maybe all operations now happening in spin off organizations? Or something. GangofOne (talk) 19:38, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Or maybe its web page is blank because it's a think tank that subcribes to the Zen Doctrine of No Mind. GangofOne (talk) 20:05, 16 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
