View of the whole - like music conductors, we must grasp the whole situation

You are listening to an orchestra playing. Each musician has their own score in front of them on which they are concentrated. They do not need to know the scores of the other musicians in order to play. But up in front, in full view of the orchestra, is the conductor who knows all the scores, and who sees that each musician comes in on time, that each plays with the right tempo, meter, shade of feeling, and so on. Otherwise, no matter how beautiful each individual part may be, it will not be a symphony but a horrible cacophony. But what goes on in the world today? We see a great many capable professionals—people who, you might say, know their own particular scores—but who lack an overview of the whole. That they should be proficient in their own field is commendable, of course, but their ignorance of the larger picture gives rise to all kinds of anomalies and disorders. Insofar as their ideas and perspectives are inspired and limited by their individual positions, they cannot grasp the whole situation, so they do not possess the truth. They too must strive to become conductors, to rise, that is, to where they have a clear view of the whole and can act appropriately whatever circumstances come their way.
