Modelo Integral de Ken Wilber, Teoria y Practica.
Martes 7pm-10pm
Introduccion: Kosmic Consciousness
Sesiones informativas, martes 2 y miercoles 3 de diciembre 7pm.
Taller en espanol e ingles, basado en una espléndida serie de conversaciones con Ken Wilber en donde de manera sencilla pero profunda y divertida explica de donde viene el modelo, su estructura y sus aplicaciones. El modelo integral puede verse como un super-mapa de la realidad tanto objetiva (ciencia, política, medio ambiente), como subjetiva, (valores e ideales, satisfaccion personal y cultura). Todo esto inmerso en un contexto de evolución del Espíritu, o impulso secreto que ha llevado al universo manifiesto a desdoblarse desde el Big Bang hasta la consciencia de los mas altos representantes de la raza humana como Buddha, Jesucristo o Aurobindo.
La estructura del taller consistirá de un audio de 1 hora y media en ingles, con Ken Wilber seguido de media hora de discusión y practica.
La participación en este grupo es gratuita, es importante que reserves tu lugar pues el cupo es limitado a 20 personas. El taller es facilitado por Juan Pablo Rico, estudiante de la maestría en Estudios Integrales en la Universidad John F. Kennedy de California.
