WILBER'S POST-METAPHYSICAL TURN - Adrian J. Ivakhiv

Reading Wilber’s critics (like Meyerhoff), one might get the impression that 
once one starts poking holes into the woodwork, the whole edifice will come 
crumbling down with a great crashing thud. My own suspicion is, rather, that 
the strength of the building is not in its bricks (or its two-by-fours) but in 
the torsion of the architectural curves that hold it together. The bricks may 
be replaceable, while the building may remain quite habitable. 

The point, I think, is that Wilber’s framework should not be seen as the 
“integral” culmination of knowledge gathered safely from so many 
paradigmatically settled fields of knowledge. Rather, it is an exciting, 
original, youthful, and (hopefully) very fluid research program that is still 
very much on the upswing.
