We have been leading up to this topic. Care for ‘the world’ is an inadequate basis for choice. Awareness of impending death provides a basis for integrity. It shows that choosing for ‘the world’ is completely inauthentic. It robs us of our self-determinism, energy, attention and authenticity. Integrity is required for authentic Being. Integrity is the subject of one of our advanced courses. We use a positive model of integrity, versus the typical normative virtue model. We define integrity as “the state or condition of being whole, complete, unbroken, unimpaired, sound, in perfect condition.”
