Rob Burbea describes 'conceptual framework' as an intricate and essential scaffold of thoughts, ideas, and perspectives that serves to interpret and navigate various experiences and phenomena. For him, it is not merely an intellectual construct but a dynamic, living system that shapes and is simultaneously reshaped by our perceptions, insights, and engagements with reality. This framework is crucial in fostering deeper understanding, facilitating meditation practice, and guiding contemplative exploration. By recognizing and refining these underlying structures, one can transcend limiting paradigms, unveiling deeper layers of truth and wisdom. Burbea emphasizes that a well-constructed conceptual framework is integral to the spiritual journey, offering both clarity and transformative potential.
