Chapter 1 : Chapter One
"The nature of the human being is well defined and conditioned by three activities.
The behavior in righteousness.
The behavior in desire.
And the behavior in stupidity.
Righteousness is related with morality and renders happiness and bliss.
Because of desires, one is put into difficult circumstances to suffer or to enjoy.
And stupidity is beneficial for laziness and drives one to sinful activities.
Sometimes righteousness and morality become manifested and promiscuous, defeating desire and imbecility. Sometimes desires become prominent and defeat righteousness and rectitude. And sometimes idiocy or ignorance conquers over righteousness and desire.
This way all three temperaments of the human nature are always competing for dominance."
