"Just as today's mathematics is the language of natural science, Axiology will then be the language of value science. The categories of Axiology can be applied to anything; anything from the lowest to the highest can be valued in all 3 processes, systemically, extrinsically and intrinsically.

We must let it be known that we have the opportunity to live in 3 worlds, the systemic world of rules, the social world of the senses, and the moral or spiritual world of our inner selves, therein to live balanced, meaningful lives."
