Guru Watch
From Scott: I'm attempting to open myself up more to criticism since I put myself out there as what could be perceived to be a "spiritual teacher." There have been basic issues of lack of compassion, jealousy, sexual and monetary exploitation, shadow-boxing and hugging, and many other abuses perpetrated by spiritual teachers. As someone who shares a message and meets with people, the most I can do is meet someone as a friend and give guidance if that is what pops up. I must remain vulnerable to criticism and to any power imbalance which may appear within the relationships between myself and those that meet me. With that in mind, I have placed these links here so that an open discussion can take place about the topic of abuses by spiritual teachers.

Integral Links
"The word integral means comprehensive, inclusive, non-marginalizing, embracing. Integral approaches to any field attempt to be exactly that: to include as many perspectives, styles, and methodologies as possible within a coherent view of the topic. In a certain sense, integral approaches are “meta-paradigms,” or ways to draw together an already existing number of separate paradigms into an interrelated network of approaches that are mutually enriching." – Ken Wilber
An Overview of Integral Theory, http://integrallife.com/node/37539, This primer to integral theory written by Sean Esbjörn-Hargens provides an up to date introduction and is an ideal piece to give to colleagues and friends who keep asking "What is 'integral theory' anyway?" For years we have heard people complain that there isn't a solid intro to the AQAL model. While Ken Wilber has penned a few introductions, these are often not viewed as ideal presentations for many professional contexts. Our hope is that this new introduction will help fill this gap, and offer individuals another resource to help communicate the basics of integral theory. This introduction is also written in a way that even seasoned integral practitioners will find illuminating, with new details of integral theory being explored.
Integral Life, http://integrallife.com/, Integral Life was founded to help people integrate their fragmented lives through greater freedom, love, awareness and understanding. Integral Life’s tagline “free to be fully human” is more than a slogan, it is a living promise for humanity: that we may live totally free in our immense diversity while embracing the full richness of the human experience in ourselves and others. Integral awareness allows you to expand and deepen your experience of every moment, make sense of your world and your relationship to it, and to organize all the fragmentation of modern living in a way that doesn't exclude any part of you. An integral life is a way to process your own life experience that includes everything you are while leaving nothing out. Imagine living in a state of self-awareness such that in every moment you are capable of saying "Here I am, fully present. I know who I am in this moment and why."
Integral Naked, www.integralnaked.org, Integral Naked is the world’s first multimedia portal into Integral Consciousness, featuring hundreds of hours of audio and video conversations with today’s greatest thinkers, leaders, artists, and visionaries. Often moderated by Ken Wilber, these discussions span a wide range of topics--including spirituality, sexuality, psychology, ecology, art, business, and politics. Through the rich diversity of subject matter runs a single thread, a fierce determination to connect the dots of fragmentation and begin to make sense of a world gone more than slightly mad.... Integral Naked offers a much more comprehensive, cohesive, and fulfilling way to navigate the rich complexity of the traditional, modern, and post-modern worlds. It is the meeting ground between culture and spirituality, between consciousness and evolution, between the self and the Self. It is a clearing from which a constellation of luminaries can be seen taking the integral vision into their lives and into the world. It is also the online epicenter of an emerging grassroots community, the first integral culture the planet has ever seen....
Boulder Integral http://www.boulderintegral.org/ "Boulder Integral is a community of shared philosophical agreement and committed practice. We believe that we are poised at the beginning of a new turn in the spiral of human history, where for the first time all constructions of human knowledge and forms of beneficial practice are available. We hear the next octave of a new Renaissance, where entirely new structures of thought, new reality frames, new ways of being human, and new stages of development await us, supported by a vastly clearer view of the great contributions of the past, as well as its pathologies. At Boulder Integral we stand in this confluence, eager to aid in the creation of the next wave of development: The Integral Age."
Integral Recovery http://integralrecovery.com/ "Integral RecoveryTM is a bold and totally new approach to the treatment of alcoholism and addiction. We say “totally new” not because it breaks with other approaches past or present, but because it unites—or integrates—them, preserving what is best of existing modalities, while negating their weaknesses."
Climate Crisis, A Broader View, http://integrallife.com/apply/environment/climate-change-broader-view, In this white paper, Dr. Karen O'Brien, Professor of Human Geography at the University of Oslo and lead author of the adaptation chapter of the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report, warns: "Climate change is now recognized as one of the most challenging and complex problems facing humanity—the problem is real, the stakes are high, and there is no single 'solution.' No measure will be met with the instant gratification that is often expected by people in modern, high-energy consumption societies. In this article she discusses why an integral approach is not only necessary for addressing climate change, but urgent.
