Definition

To karyze

To karyze is to accurately distinguish agat from hamarten and communicate that distinction beyond oneself despite meaningful resistance or pressure.

The distinction it protects

Courage without accuracy is not enough.

Karyzing requires accurate moral discernment, communication beyond oneself, and courage under meaningful resistance. Sincerity, intensity, opposition, or social cost cannot make an entirely wrong proclamation karyzing.

In the path

Speak accurately when silence, conformity, or retreat would be easier.

The communication may reach one person or many. The term describes the act and grants no office, authority, or elevated moral status.
