And once that rainbow is clear, how does it apply to me? Perhaps very simply: a more accurate, comprehensive map of human potentials will directly translate into a more effective business, politics, medicine, education, and spirituality. On the other hand, if you have a partial, truncated, fragmented map of the human being, you will have a partial, truncated, fragmented approach to business, medicine, spirituality, and so on. In garbage, out garbage.
Thus, no matter what your field of endeavor, a “theory of everything” will likely make it much more effective. So it is not surprising that this more comprehensive map of human possibilities has seen an explosion of interest in virtually all fields, including politics, business, education, health care, law, ecology, science, and religion. For those interested in some of these recent applications, see A Theory of Everything—An Integral Vision for Business, Politics, Science, and Spirituality.
