This course embodies the vision and principles Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama articulated as the foundation of CIHS educational programs, at graduate and advanced levels. Integral and meta-integral visions, theories and practices are introduced, including a transdisciplinary spanning of developmental psychology & philosophy, biology, physics, religious studies and a dynamic evolving interplay among Western and Eastern paradigms. The project is to develop transperspectival awareness of human existence including holistic perspectives that include body, mind and spirit, and foster the evolution of a harmonious global society. The complexities of creating an integral worldview based on the diversity of human thought and culture are introduced.
