     Exactly! Excellent!  That's the appeal -
non-separation!
     As I quote from Joseph Campbell's “The Inner
Reaches of Outer Space”, in which he quotes from James
Joyces' "A Portrait of the Artist As a Young Man" as
follows:
     “Aquinas says,” states Stephen Dedalus, “Three
things are needed for beauty, wholeness (integrity),
harmony, and radiance.”  
     Ah, I believe this might be Case's favored topic
- harmony, and add some good old ancient wholeness
with a dash of radiance - we find Campbell's way of
putting it called bliss!  
     It's that togetherness factor once again. 
Relationships, connectiveness, and family - doctor
recommended!
