Shownotes

We tend to emphasise some perspectives over others.

When we do this, we’re blind, we’re biased. We’re not seeing the full picture, the fullness and complexity of life, and we create weak explanations and weak solutions.

What if we could go beyond all this dichotomising and reductionism to a complete picture of reality? Enter The Four Quadrants.

In his Integral Theory, Ken Wilber proposes his Four Quadrants as the four fundamental perspectives on life, human beings, and the cosmos. And they play a huge role in this comprehensive perspective.

These four fundamental perspectives are visible in all human disciplines, in all phenomena.

To get an accurate picture of politics, health, science or any other real-life phenomena, we ought to look at them from these four perspectives, at least.
