8:20 The guy behind Ken casts a shadow on the wall and it looks as if Ken's shadow is moving independently from him. He likes to say he doesn't have one anyways ;)i thought it was funny

Appearances are deceiving, for example, I may at times also be confused to be a crackhead :), even though I don't take any drugs or meds, besides aspirin, which is also very low amounts. As for the guy smirking, he's just a zen buddhist who's a friend of Ken Wilber, and has come to enjoy the 'crakchead' humor of mr Wilber. So, Ken with his presence at other times (when he isn't straight outta bed) has managed to be an example. Beyond this video, there's no evidence for any of his crackheadness.

I dont know for sure and im not accusing, but this dude is sweating and sniffing like he just did some coke. Hes got sun glasses on feelin all good. That might hurt his credibility but i dont know wo this guy is i was just lookin around youtube and saw this video. He does have some good insights from a person living in the modern world and the meaning of enlightenment. But id dont know about this dude...... The guy behind him keeps smirkin too

Well Ken Wilber once concocted a severe illness that at times keeps him in bed, causing fevers, (not contagious). It has to do with enzyme imbalances. He was (according to Ken himself) once exposed to an environmental toxin that might have caused the cancer of her wife Treya too that ended up being fatal. At times I have allergies and I sniff the air too. There is no evidence for Ken Wilber actually taking any tramp drugs such as cocaine, or any drugs, besides antibiotics to beat the bacteria.

He does love to use the word "fundamentally."

Physically, he doesn't seem to present too healthy or easy to watch, but it IS refreshing and energizing to LISTEN to him, because of his absolutely brilliant way with words and profound depth and intelligence in insight. So thankyou.

You don't need to do anything to be what you already are NOW. Abide eternally in the now or you have no existence at all.

I agree.
