The rapid expansion of knowledge and communication, growth in technology, increase in population as well as transformation of traditional culture and values have profound effects on how people live, relate with one another and view life.

At the personal level, an increasing number of people are experiencing frustration, restlessness and anger not quite knowing how to deal with the heightened pace of transciency and paradoxical conduct of human affairs in the political, economic, social spheres.
