The Religion of Tomorrow: A Vision for the Future of the Great Traditions-More Inclusive, More Comprehensive, More Complete (2016)

A single purpose lies at the heart of all the great religious traditions- awakening to the astonishing reality of the true nature of ourselves and the universe. At the same time, through centuries of cultural accretion and focus on myth and ritual as ends in themselves, this core insight has become obscured. Here Ken Wilber provides a path for reenvisioning a religion of the future that acknowledges the evolution of humanity in every realm while remaining faithful to that original spiritual vision. For the traditions to attract modern men and women, Wilber asserts, they must incorporate the extraordinary number of scientific truths learned about human nature in just the past hundred years-for example, about the mind and brain, emotions, and the growth of consciousness-that the ancients were simply unaware of and thus were unable to include in their meditative systems. Taking Buddhism as an example, Wilber demonstrates how his comprehensive Integral Approach-which is already being applied to several world religions by some of their adherents-can avert a "cultural disaster of unparalleled proportions"- the utter neglect of the glorious upper reaches of human potential by the materialistic postmodern worldview. Moreover, he shows how we can apply this approach to our own spiritual practice. This, his most sweeping work since Sex, Ecology, Spirituality, is a thrilling call for wholeness, inclusiveness, and unity in the religions of tomorrow.… (meer)

I have a lot of patience but this one really challenged my principles of sticking with the book. Gibberish masquerading as deep wisdom.

The author keeps commenting on scientific topics despite a complete lack of grasp of them. At one point he says that the view that evolution somehow progresses through a random mutation in a male finding a female with the same mutation is moronic. Indeed. But the only moron with this view is the author. That's not how heritability works as even a 12 year old would be able to explain.

I'll save you the time wading through this twaddle: the only intelligible thing in the whole book is that the author thinks religions should update their teaching to adapt to liberal social opinions and anyone who doesn't believe in equality of all people is simply not meditating enough. The rest is an incomprehensible stream of consciousness style Nonsense with every other Word capitalised about Wholeness, Universe, Teal and Purple Awareness levels and backward Buddhists who really need to get on with the times and accept gays.
