There are references to the biological need to belong to a group, and how
those systems have evolved from immediate tribes to nation states. As well,
almost as representatives in a constellation empathize with unseen people,
there is much reference to empathy as an evolutionary phenomenon, leading to
the idea that if we can empathize with a smaller family or tribal system,
then we can eventually empathize with the larger unseen systems of the whole
human race and the planet. A very interesting and thought provoking talk.
