Man results from the utmost development of this pulsatory action and passion; and man's nature, as the highest result, is perfectly good, consisting of five elements, namely, charity, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and sincerity.

These constitute the inmost, essential nature of man; but as man comes in contact with the outward world evil arises by the conflict.

When man follows the dictates of his nature his actions are good, and harmony results.

When he is unduly influenced by the outward world his actions are evil, and discord intervenes.

The holy man is one who has an instinctive, inward sight of the ultimate principle in its twofold operation (or what we should call the sight of God, the beatific vision), and who therefore spontaneously and easily obeys his nature.
Hence all his thoughts are perfectly wise, his actions perfectly good, and his words perfectly true.
