Absolutely right.  Have written a minor mode that provides some customisations 
to outline-minor-mode.
Would like that when tematika-minor-mode is activated, outline-minor-mode gets 
enabled automatically. 

I have the following.  The problem happened because I was calling 
(tematika-activation) within the
definition of tematika-minor-mode, as soon as tematika-minor-mode gets 
activated.

Would you be so kind to show me how I can enable outline-minor-mode when the 
user enables
tematika-minor-mode so as to avoid the infinite recursion problem ?

I also need a way to disable outline-minor-mode when tematika-minor-mode is 
disabled.

(defun tematika-activation ()
  "Activate `tematika-minor-mode' with `outline-minor-mode' in a
buffer-local way."
  (tematika-minor-mode (if outline-minor-mode 1 0)))

;;;###autoload
(define-minor-mode tematika-minor-mode
  "Enhances visibility of heading levels and text emphasis."
  :init-value nil
  :lighter " Tematika"

  (if tematika-minor-mode

      ;; Enable minor mode capability
      (progn (tematika-tools)
             (tematika-hooks-outl)
             ;; (tematika-activation)
             (message "Tematika Activated"))

    ;; [ELSE] Revert the functionality provided by minor mode
    ;; (tematika-activate-woutline)
    (message "Tematika Deactivated")) )
