Pondering Open Space and Spiral Dynamics

[Tim Weidman]

hi peggy,

first what did you think of the book?  i used to love him, now since ses 
there has been a growing disenchantment.  so i am wondering what others 
thoughts are.

regarding your question, i would say that ost has the capacity to 
operate aqal.  however, wilber would probably classify it as a second 
tier tool and not beyond.  that is, at best he would probably say that 
it remains to be seen whether ost includes the psychic, subtle, causal 
and nondual.  as such, it would be aqal through the 2nd tier and 
questionable beyond.
