integral theory

a meta-theory proposed by ken wilber, through his study, practice and synthesis of multiple wisdom traditions, modern academic disciplines and scientific research.

AQAL is one of the core frameworks proposed by ken wilber, it integrates multiple other frameworks into a single one that encapsulates most of integral theory.

it is short for: all quadrants, all levels, all lines, all states, all types.

it's one of the frames that helped me the most and reoriented my whole perception on life, so i highly recommend getting to know it. lots of people in the game b / metacrisis space also use it as a way to support complex, multi-perspectival, holistic sensemaking.
the shortest introduction to the subject i know/like is integral life's "what is the integral approach?".

for further recommendations, i suggest starting with the book a brief history of everything. if reading isn't your preferred medium at the moment, there's this youtube playlist, which i haven't seen fully but that seems good.
