It is only through an open dialogue of ideas and perspectives that we can truly come to understand our own views and those of others. And it is in this way that we can develop our views together, collectively if not always in solidarity, towards the betterment of the whole. However it should be clear that many of my criticisms of Jeff can be generally applied to the integral movement as a whole as led and articulated by Ken Wilber, whose charismatic influence has been enormous and some would even say cultish. My hope is that integral practitioners more generally and Ken himself would take heed of these criticisms and of Jeff's willingness to respond. Alas, that might be a lot like hoping Obama, the candidate of hope, finally comes around to actually being progressive.

Such Processes are of two types: General and Specific. The 'Specific Processes' are all the specialized Methods, Techniques, Therapies, Practices, Programs, Activities, Explorations, Studies, and Focused Experiences that move us along specific Stages, Realms, and Arenas of the Growth Continuum. Over the course of cultural evolution, we human beings have developed 35 Specific Processes to enable the perpetuation and progress of civilization. We divide those Processes into seven different Themes of emphasis: #1-6. Foundational Processes #7-10. Physical World Processes #11-17. Socio-Cultural Processes #18-23. Formal Investigation Processes #24-28. Self-Expression Processes #29-33. Conscious Development Processes #34-35. Comprehensive Processes The Specific Processes comprise Domain #3B of the five Domains of the ADAPT Model of Human Development. Symbolically, they are the Sailing Ships of our Life Journey.
