Description:

This is being fanatical about calling other people to awareness; it occurs when someone is passionately concerned that others should know the profundity of their lives. It may be compared to Eleanor Roosevelt's participation in drafting the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights - a passionate engagement that demanded that others participate.

Context:

In the ICA New Religious Mode in the arena of being the presence of transcendence (the life of chastity) the first formal aspect is radical identification with images of profound living, in which a person interiorizes the qualities of spiritual role models. At the second phenomenological level this occurs when one's life is consecrated to a cause in such a way that one's every action manifests one's intent.<

About the Encyclopedia

The Encyclopedia of World Problems and Human Potential is a unique, experimental research work of the Union of International Associations. It is currently published as a searchable online platform with profiles of world problems, action strategies, and human values that are interlinked in novel and innovative ways. These connections are based on a range of relationships such as broader and narrower scope, aggravation, relatedness and more. By concentrating on these links and relationships, the Encyclopedia is uniquely positioned to bring focus to the complex and expansive sphere of global issues and their interconnected nature.

The initial content for the Encyclopedia was seeded from UIA’s Yearbook of International Organizations. UIA’s decades of collected data on the enormous variety of association life provided a broad initial perspective on the myriad problems of humanity. Recognizing that international associations are generally confronting world problems and developing action strategies based on particular values, the initial content was based on the descriptions, aims, titles and profiles of international associations.

Non-profit, apolitical, independent, and non-governmental in nature, the UIA has been a pioneer in the research, monitoring and provision of information on international organizations, international associations and their global challenges since 1907.
