Has anyone heard of Ken Wilber, or his Integral ideas?
http://www.integralinstitute.org/public/static/default.aspx
That's the website for Integral Institute, a think-tank for contemporary issues, from an Integral viewpoint. An Integral worldview is one in which we take into account the generalizations we can gather from the world's wisdom traditions.
As far as I know, and as far as I've heard, Wilber himself is a practicing Buddhist.

That's a video of Wilber altering his brainwaves by entering different stages of meditation.

With research, and looking more into his books, it looks as though he's not a Buddhist, perse, but he is an avid meditator, and uses alot of Buddhist thought in his philosophy. I highly encourage anyone to look into him. His philosophies are novel. It's a wonder more people having caught onto it.
