It is in virtue of unity that beings are beings.
Each one of us is part of the soul of the universe
One principle must make the universe a single complex living creature, one from all.
Being is desirable because it is identical with Beauty, and Beauty is loved because it is Being. We ourselves possess Beauty when we are true to our own being; ugliness is in going over to another order; knowing ourselves, we are beautiful; in self-ignorance, we are ugly.
Wherever it lies, under earth or over earth, the body will always rot.
The soul that beholds beauty becomes beautiful.
