KAIROS | One Turn of the Wheel: Blake, Nietzsche, and the Philosophy of Integral Time with Professor Sean Kelly
Wednesday, 28 January, 2026
Join me in a profound exploration of time, eternity, and human consciousness with Professor Sean Kelly, philosopher and author of "Coming Home: The Birth and Transformation of the Planetary Era."This conversation delves into William Blake's enigmatic line "Eternity is in love with the productions of time," examining the dialectic between finite temporal experience and the eternal realm. From ancient Greek cosmology to Christian mysticism, from Hegel's philosophy to Nietzsche's eternal recurrence, this episode weaves together Eastern and Western wisdom traditions to illuminate the sacred nature of temporal existence. Discover how kairos moments—those opportune times when the eternal breaks into ordinary experience—can be cultivated through contemplative practice, engagement with beauty, and openness to the sacred.Topics Explored:The relationship between eternity and temporal existenceIntegral time and developmental cosmologyKronos vs. Kairos: sequential time and sacred momentsThe eternal recurrence as "one turn of the wheel"Intermediary beings and nested hierarchies of consciousnessPractical wisdom for cultivating kairos experiencesThe role of art, nature, and contemplation in accessing timeless awarenessTimestamps: 2:12 - Blake's "Eternity in love with the productions of time"4:33 - Spatializing time: Ancient Greek cosmology 8:00 - Two realms of experience: Sub-lunar and eternal 12:00 - The erotic link between time and eternity 15:00 - Time as matrix for divine productions 18:00 - Integral non-dualism: East meets West 22:00 - Integral time and developmental cosmos 28:00 - The block universe vs. process philosophy 34:00 - Intermediary beings and higher dimensional time 42:00 - Kronos: Sequential time and human experience 48:00 - Memory, anticipation, and character development 52:00 - Kairos: The opportune moment58:00 - Christ as kairos and the fractal nature of sacred time 66:00 - Cultivating kairos: Practical guidance 72:00 - Music, nature, and aesthetic experience 78:00 - Nietzsche's eternal recurrence84:00 - One turn of the wheel: Integral time perspective 90:00 - Closing reflectionsGuest Bio: Professor Sean Kelly teaches philosophy at California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) and has made significant contributions to integral, transpersonal, and evolutionary philosophy.
