Homeostasis

A fundamental process: homeostasis
We are more compelled to proclaim than we are to listen. We value the individual more than the community. We focus on single entities rather than the connections which unite them. We are trained to perceive differences, distinctiveness rather than commonalities . We want to win rather than share. Comparing these social values and behavioral patterns with the qualities of organic homeostasis we cannot fail to notice the marked differences, even the antithetical characteristics, of the two . Nature's pattern is one of a universal community with each subunit being distinctive, necessary and integrated within a larger ecosystem. Our pattern is one of egocentric imperialism. (...) I have tried to show how individualism is an insufficient social value for a viable social unit, unable as it is to direct social forces towards
homeostasis with the rest of the cosmos. ("BEYOND INDIVIDUALISM IN THE ARTS" Peter London)
