The thing I least appreciate about his work is his emphasis on 
"developmental" in such a way that we all get cubbyholed in a stage of development. Or, 
development becomes hierarchical, often leading to "I'm more advanced than you," 
or "I'm more spiritual than you," which to me is over the line: how can anyone 
be any closer to the mystery than anyone else? This leads to misplaced and 
arrogant righteousness and is a fundamental source of divisiveness in society and 
the universe.

Right on, John.  There is definitely a danger of hiearchical thinking, though 
there may still be those who are more willing to struggle with the concepts 
of consciousness of their/our relationship to the mystery.
