The First Kind Of Evil Is That

That Which Is Produced With Intention Has Passed Over From Non-existence To Existence.

The Knowledge Of God, The Formation Of Ideas, The Mastery Of Desire And Passion, The Distinction Between That Which Is To Be Chosen And That Which Is To Be Rejected, All These Man Owes To His Form.

Know That For The Human Mind There Are Certain Objects Of Perception Which Are Within The Scope Of Its Nature And Capacity; On The Other Hand, There Are, Amongst Things Which Actually Exist, Certain Objects Which The Mind Can In No Way And By No Means Grasp: The Gates Of Perception Are Closed Against It.

The Prophet Isaiah ... Points Out What Will Be The Cause Of This Change; For He Says That Hatred, Quarrel, And Fighting Will Come To An End, Because Men Will Have A True Knowledge Of God. "they Shall Not Hurt Nor Destroy In All My Holy Mountain: For The Earth Shall Be Full Of The Knowledge Of The Lord, As The Waters Which Cover The Sea" (isa. Xi. Ver. 9) Note It.

Transient Bodies Are Only Subject To Destruction Through Their Substance And Not Through Their Form, Nor Can The Essence Of Their Form Be Destroyed; In This Respect They Are Permanent.
