Eternal insecurity (ICA)

This is experienced when a person is unsure of what is required of him and what role he needs to play; when he is called upon to shift his understanding of who he is and what he is doing in the world. It may be compared with Dustin Hoffman's description of his experience in deciding to play in the movie "Tootsie."

In the ICA New Religious Mode in the arena of knowing one's disengagement (the life of poverty) the third formal aspect is being nonchalant about one's relations. At the first phenomenological level, this occurs when one is no longer content with one's customary habits, but sees in them a futility never before discerned.
