As long as
a man lives, he cannot help obeying the cardinal impulse, the elan vital. It is man's innate nature
that he seeks to preserve and to strengthen his life, that he is discontented
and aims at removing uneasiness, that he is in search of what may be called
happiness. [2]
The
power to make the divine economy manifest comes from the invisible world of
thought and reason and enters the visible world through purposeful action. Since
no action occurs in a vacuum each action becomes a part of the educative matrix
of all actions, all of which follow the same subjective processes.
