Integrity is the cooperative interplay of diverse elements to form something greater than a mere aggregate.

Integrity is identical to being, for without diverse distinct things there would be utter Nothingness, and without cooperation between the parts of distinct things, those things would lose their form and would cease to exist.

Universal (unlimited) Being is a tangled hierarchy of inclusivity. Cooperation between elements at a given level of this hierarchy results in distinct cooperative entities at more inclusive levels. Those entities in turn constitute the diversity of the more inclusive levels. Therefore, diversity and cooperation are complementary attributes whose interplay makes Being possible.

The defining struggle of our age is that between cooperatively-diverse (organic) systems and top-down hierarchies of domination and control. The latter are exploitative, and therefore unsustainable; if they prevail, this world's diversity will be damaged, and its sustainability will be irreparably compromised.
