The lowest form of consciousness is the tribal stage. As we begin our exploration of integral theory, this podcast exposes the many ways that tribal consciousness still remains in our “so-called” evolved world. Tribal thinking is all about appeasement to a deity, another person, or an institution because fear has not been displaced by the higher form of relating through love. I will reveal the signs that we are outgrowing the tribal stage and why all maturity necessitates the move away. The ruin of the tribe is not its eradication, but its transformation as it is integrated into wider aspects of the truth.
