Pongsathorn has been delving deeply into the "academic" side of integral thought, in particular, drawing out some of the details of the Integral Spirituality draft, and, I assume, what will be present in the new Integral Spirituality book.

You need to spend time with this, translating the variables into perspectives - but I offer up the links, for those who are interested:

Integral Math and Order of Mind - Part I

Integral Math and Order of Mind - Part II

Complexity, Spirituality, Reinterpretation

(Quick cheat sheet - instead of the world resting on turtles all the way down, the world is perspectives - all the way down!  Take that Bertrand Russell!)

As I pointed out a couple of days ago, "shifting perspectives" has quite an impact on how consciousness is experienced to the person - or p1 - 1st person perspective.  

The important question is how deep this goes - and how to stay grounded, I suppose, and in the real world, as perspectives shift.

Also, I have the sinking feeling if I talk about this a lot, I'm going to start sounding very lawyerish - example:

"The party of the 1st part - er sorry - the perspective of the 1st person, would like to embrace the perspective of the 2nd person, without reference to the 3rd person's perspective.

However, this gets problematic when..."

More than simply an overview such as this, however, I still say what will radically push things forward, is for all practices, a disciplined intake, reporting, and assessment methodology.  This will be delivered over web 2.0 at some point, and will radically transform the ascending nature of revelation - from the Bald's One's head, into a bottom-up, more egalitarian practical revelation of what works. It's just a matter of time.
