as a notion belonging to transcendental philosophy; viz.,Maillot F.Torres Pas Cher, the notion of the totality of the manifold which taken together constitutes a thing; sometimes,Parajumpers Herr Perfect, again, it is understood as belonging to teleology, so that it signifies the correspondence of the properties of a thing to an end. Perfection in the former sense might be called quantitative (material), in the latter qualitative (formal) perfection. The former can be one only, for the whole of what belongs to the one thing is one. But of the latter there may be several in one thing; and it is of the latter property that we here treat.
When it is said of the perfection that belongs to man generally (properly speaking, to humanity), that it is in itself a duty to make this our end, it must be placed in that which may be the effect of one's deed, not in that which is merely an endowment for which we have to thank nature; for otherwise it would not be duty. Consequently, it can be nothing else than the cultivation of one's power (or natural capacity) and also of one's will (moral disposition) to satisfy the requirement of duty in general. The supreme element in the former (the power) is the understanding, it being the faculty of concepts,Kurtka North Face Męskie Windstopper, and, therefore, also of those concepts which refer to duty. First it is his duty to labour to raise himself out of the rudeness of his nature, out of his animal nature more and more to humanity, by which alone he is capable of setting before him ends to supply the defects of his ignorance by instruction, and to correct his errors; he is not merely counselled to do this by reason as technically practical, with a view to his purposes of other kinds (as art), but reason, as morally practical,Canada Goose Solaris Parka, absolutely commands him to do it, and makes this end his duty, in order that he may be worthy of the humanity that dwells in him. Secondly,Canada Goose Herr, to carry the cultivation of his will up to the purest virtuous disposition, that,Chaussures ZX 700 Femme, namely, in which the law is also the spring of his dutiful actions, and to obey it from duty,CG Menn Lodge Down Jakke Norge Salg, for this is internal morally practical perfection. This is called the moral sense (as it were a special sense, sensus moralis), because it is a feeling of the effect which the legislative will within himself exercises on the faculty of acting accordingly. This is, indeed, often misused fanatically,Parajumpers Dam Simona, as though (like the genius of Socrates) it preceded reason,Manchester United Pas Cher, or even could dispense with judgement of reason; but still it is a moral perfection, making every special end,Belstaff Maple Kurtki, which is also a duty, one's own end.
B. HAPPINESS OF OTHERS
It is inevitable for human nature that he should wish and seek for happiness,Pays de Galles Pas Cher, that is, satisfaction with his condition, with certainty of the continuance of this satisfaction. But for this very reason it is not an end that is also a duty. Some writers still make a distinction between moral and physical happiness (the former consisting in satisfaction with one's person and moral behaviour, that is, with what one does; the other in satisfaction with that which nature confers,Dame Moncler Bergenie, consequently with what one enjoys as a
