Abstract
At the outset, it is instructive to contextualize the title of this paper. "A Praxis of Everything" is a direct reference to A Theory of Everything, one of more than 20 books authored by Ken Wilber, widely regarded the world's foremost integral scholar-practitioner. Through his writings and ongoing projects at his recently founded Integral Institute, Wilber is, perhaps more than any other figure, facilitating the emergence of "an integral age at the leading edge" of consciousness and culture. To that end, his Integral Theory or AQAL Framework is currently unrivaled as an attempt to synthesize the greatest number of truths from the most fields of human inquiry, a synthesis meant to liberate all of the dimension perspectives of being-in-the-world at all levels of organization. Owing to its extraordinary depth and breadth, the AQAL theoretical framework is gaining application in numerous walks of life, including but not limited to business, education, politics, ecology, medicine, personal development, art, and spirituality. AQAL is applicable to virtually every life situation, and by virtue of catalyzing a balanced an inclusive approach to any situation, AQAL has profound implications for the art of every day living. "A Praxis of Everything" calls attention to this vast and intricate relationship between Wilber's Integral Theory and integrally informed life practice.
