Furthermore, along with the two processes, the universe evolves with synergy, advancing itself with novelty. Synergy refers to the new and novel whole that is brought forth out of the processes of differentiation and integration. It is the whole which is bigger than the sum of its parts. It is with the new and novel development, the universe evolves. That is why we call the life-producing pattern the synergy principle.
Pathology occurs, when the synergic principle of the universe is obstructed.
In addition, pathology manifests itself in terms of problems or crises. When pathology exists, corrective action is needed to eliminate those problems and crises. Corrective action here refers to the kind of action that will rectify the processes of differentiation and integration, producing synergy. When the synergic process is retained, consciousness will continue the journey of evolution, and our problems and crises will disappear. Furthermore, as we expand our own consciousness, we will understand more about the essence of the universe.
