I have always been a searcher for wisdom and spiritual knowledge. I was frustrated. I felt alone because while I sensed some truth in most areas, I did not find any one path satisfying or complete, and often found them dissolving into platitudes or calcifying into dogma. Then a friend gave me Kosmic Consciousness. I listened to all 10 CDs in two marathon days, taking furious notes. Then I went on to read many of Ken’s books (full disclosure — SES is just a door stopper or a reference work for me). Ken Wilber did what no one from Descartes, Hume, Kant, Nietzsche, Camus, Sartre, Kierkegaard, to my college philosophy professors, to my parents, to my greatest fellow searching friends, to drugs, to lonesome meditation without much guidance, to yoga, etc., etc. had been able to do: he disclosed me to myself, and made me feel not alone. For that, I am forever, and quite simply, grateful. I don’t know much about what Ken is going through in life. But I know I want him to keep doing what he has done his whole life. Because it helped me feel comfortable in my own skin, in my own mind, in my own soul. And I know he is right. Ever partial, and ever open to legitimate non-myopic, truly honest criticism, but by and large, goddamnit — he is right. I wish I could give more to this great man. I’ll just say “Thanks, Arhat.”
