The light does not become them any longer. They begin to have an unrecorded look. It is as if they were being tried by the continual blows of an unseen adversary.”

Holding onto known-definitions, the violator of individuation bludgeons others with their "boundaries / definitions." The anti-social hold onto what they know, using their definitions (boundaries) to resist the unknown and to stop others from moving into the unknown. The psychopathic among us cling fervently to their need to bound others and bound themselves. Boundaries implies bondage. The unknown implies moving into what is boundless, infinite. Those who fail to advance, fall back into the familiar, the bounded, in bondage with the known, the familiar, the habitual, the habit, habitat. One's true nature is boundless and infinite.”
