Word-bearing priest (ICA)

This is experienced on encountering people and events that remind one of one's capacity to live one's life, when one is conscious that one is being called to pick up one's own life and live it. An example is suddenly remembering something said to one a long time ago in another difficult situation, referring to the fact that one's life is one's own to create.

In the ICA New Religious Mode in the arena of knowing one's internal sociality (the life of meditation) the first formal aspect is one's encounter with the mediator who pronounces personal absolution. At the first phenomenological level, this occurs when that which is other intrudes upon one's consciousness.
