Revolutionary sign (ICA)

This is the acting out of the decision one has made about one's life; when circumstances demand that a decision be embodied: "putting one's money where one's mouth is". It may be compared to Florence Nightingale, Jane Addams, Mother Jones and many others whose concern for suffering people drove them to be pioneers in inventing systems of social service.

In the ICA New Religious Mode in the arena of being the presence of transcendence (the life of chastity) the third formal aspect is inventing one's own essence, in which one manifests through one's style of being one's perception of existence. 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.
