On True Religion, Actualized.Org & Ken Wilber

[CARDOZZO]

In his book "A Sociable God: Toward a New Understanding of Religion", Wilber talks about distinct forms of spirituality and religion. 

What he proposes is a fundamental distinction between:

• Legitimacy (Horizontal): This refers to how well a religion integrates an individual into the existing social order. It provides meaning, stability, and "social glue." Most mainstream religion functions here, helping people feel comfortable in their current state of development.
• Authenticity (Vertical): This refers to the degree of actual transformation or "consciousness shift" a religion facilitates. An authentic religion pushes the individual to transcend their current level of ego or social conditioning toward higher states of being.

What do you think about this shift in perspective? Are you fundamentally triggered by religion? How can we practice vertical religion without falling for dogma, stigma and beliefs?

That's false religion. A example of true religion would be Tantra, which is just a set of techniques to realize your true nature.

No "cosmology" as Ralston suckups would say it lmao.

We basically did . Religion started off as primitive methods of raising consciousness and promoting good values through rituals and sermons and worship. we now have way more advanced techniques than that .
