Janet O'Keefe - North Carolina
Stages of Consciousness
Listen to Janet O'Keefe and Ken Wilber.
Question from Janet.
Does the "will" have a function in helping an individual to consciously evolve to higher stages of consciousness?
I'm not talking about 'free will" per se or any type of willing that implies effort.
By will I mean:
1. William James' "will to believe"
2. The emotional / intellectual / visceral decision to do or commit to something: e.g., meditation, daily physical exercise
3. The will that can arise with grace
If it has a function and role in spiritual practice, is there any way to activate it when one feels its distinct lack?
