And so, when you apply this, say, to medicine, and you get a medical specialist who knows
 all about the heart and nothing about the lungs, he starts interfering with the human
 body as if it were an automobile, with replaceable parts. He says, "Well, we'll take this out.
 We'll do a little mechanical work, get a wrench and a screwdriver and so on, only the surgical
 equivalents, and we'll take this out. So there's a tumor, and we take it out. All right. If
 he's not terribly careful, a metastatic consequence follows, that some of the cancerous cells
 will go into the bloodstream through the cutting, and the cancer will spread all over the body.
 Or if you start fiddling around with people's glands and give them certain medicines to
 stimulate this gland or to cool its operation in some way, you upset a balance which runs
 through the whole physical system. Exactly the same thing happens when you use DDT on
 mosquitoes. Well, it kills the birds, and the birds were eating the mosquitoes anyway.
 And so were the spiders, and you kill the spiders along with the mosquitoes, or the
 fleas. And we find, in other words, that the natural universe is a very intricate system
 of balances, which cannot really be split. Now, let's take the bees and the flowers.
 In a world of no bees, there's no flowers. In a world of no flowers, no bees. Because
 bees and flowers are aspects of the same organism or organization. They go together. So I vent
 the word "goes with" to indicate organic relationships. And we as human beings, obviously, we go with
 an enormous cosmos of geological, botanical, and zoological events. And we are entirely
 dependent on them, and we cannot treat them as really and truly separate species. The
 bees are as much a part of us as they are part of the flowers, because we need vegetables,
 and we can't have those without bees, or other insects. So what we've got is a universe that
 all hangs together, and where each so-called part of it implies all the other parts. Let's
 take what we call the holography. This is a method of visual reproduction that employs
 laser beams. Now, you can cut a small piece out of a photographic negative, just a tiny
 little square. And by holographic method, you can reconstruct from that little piece
 the rest of the negative. It will be pretty clear in the middle place where you've taken
 out the tiny square, and then vaguer towards the edges. But it's all implied in that little
 square. Now, of course, a photographic negative is a crystal. It's a structure of crystals.
 And the way the crystals are formed in that tiny piece depends on its original environment
 on the whole negative. See that? You, the way you are, depends on, or goes with, your
 cultural, social, and biophysical environment. So there is really and truly no way of separating
 out independent things. And this is difficult for people to understand because of our method
 of motion. A plant is understandable as something growing out of the earth because it's rooted.
 But human beings wander about on legs. We don't seem so stuck to things as plants do.
 And therefore, we have delusions of separation. But what about the seed that comes from the
 plant? It's fascinating how plants have different methods of seeding themselves.
