Enlightenment = Higher Cognitive Development? The Piagetian Ken Wilber

Jean Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development has an important place in the system of Integral Philosopher Ken Wilber. Wilber’s theory of everything is based around the stages of human development that go from the four stages of Piaget’s theory of cognitive development and ascend into the spiritual realms of nondualism that we find in the works of Plotinus and other great spiritual masters. 
In this episode we explore Wilber’s argument that the higher levels of cognitive development are in fact postformal Piagetian stages of development.
