We have seen that it was the aspiration of ancient India to live and move and have its joy in Brahma, the all-conscious and all- pervading Spirit, by extending its field of consciousness over all the world. But that, it may be urged, is an impossible task for man to achieve. If this extension of consciousness be an outward process, then it is endless; it is like attempting to cross the ocean after ladling out its water. By beginning to try to realise all, one has to end by realising nothing. But, in reality, it is not so absurd as it sounds.

(compare: " The game of Order "). To the possible corruption of this 'holarchy' the author suggests not getting rid of holarchy per se, but arresting (and integrating) their arrogant 'holons' to overcome the historic and collective derailment in our modern psychology.
