"This fact assumes that the creator system is in a certain way transformed into the to-be-created subsystem, the ‘whole’ is transformed to the ‘part.’ This global-local transformation is a necessary condition of the generation of the new system. Therefore the Universe acted continuously as an agent with organisational ability, and is progressively transformed from the largest of its subsystems into the smallest ones."

Haven't devoted much mindshare to this yet, but intend to. Thanks for your diligence (or feel free to substitute a more appropriate word)! ;-)
