Keeping conscience (ICA)

This is having to make one's own decisions without being able to rely on rules, other people or precedents; and being willing to live with the consequences of those decisions; when one experiences the burden and gift of being truly free. It may be compared with the decision of President John Kennedy to assume responsibility for the Bay of Pigs invasion.

In the ICA New Religious Mode in the arena of knowing and doing intensified in one's life (life of being) the third formal aspect is the experience of transparent engagement or the experience of levitation. At the third phenomenological level this occurs when a person disciplines his life to be continually related to the experience of nothingness.
