"Truth or Wilber?"
Frank Visser's 20 min presentation[1] for the Critics Section of the Integral European Conference 2014
Frank Visser
"Frank Visser presents his main criticisms of the work of Ken Wilber. He shares a bit about his personal background and his relationship with Wilber. Then he outlines his opinion in which areas to listen to what Wilber has to say - and where rather not to. In the end he concludes with a statement of gratitude."
NOTES
[1] While preparing the text of this talk, I changed my mind about how to phrase the title: "Truth or Wilber?" or "Wilber or Truth?". Initially I opted for "Truth or Wilber?", as in "Truth or Dare?". This embodies a question to the audience: "Are you looking for Truth, or do you want to be inspired by Wilber?". Later, I prefered "Wilber or Truth?", as an answer to the question: "What is it you are looking for in this conference?"
