The prize "celebrates no particular faith tradition or notion of God, but rather the quest for progress in humanity’s efforts to comprehend the many and diverse manifestations of the Divine."<ref>see ref. 1</ref> This prize has been given to scientists, philosophers, theologians, members of the clergy, philanthropists, writers, and reformers, and perhaps anyone who creates an order of religious movement(s) in the human world.
