The Imperatives of Human Dignity

In order to circumscribe the notion of human dignity, the book uses the triune unity of the human condition: incarnation, ontological mystery and transcendence. It is in this experiential ocean that human dignity is bathed and given a truly sacral quality. But while dignity is worthy of absolute respect, it sometimes experiences periods of desacralization. It is therefore a moment of dual unity: the human character of dignity is mixed with homunculus. The spiral passage from human to homunculus is the aletheia of magmatic power always already veiled; namely, the intimate zone of the human being. Is not the root of the human being found in the most mutilated forms of existence? Does not the idea of perfection have its source in the very consciousness of man's imperfection?
