LOVE AS A GUIDING PRINCIPLE OF
DESCARTES’S LATE PHILOSOPHY

http://web.interware.hu/bp954116/HPQ2.pdf


"Instead of being an undifferentiated substance, or a qualityless neutrum, the Absolute is the living, vital reality that manifests itself in human experience. This reality is spiritual , and the GUIDING PRINCIPLE of its upward movement is the fulfillment of its own divine purpose, which is religious, ethical, aesthetic. Religion and ethics are thus a necessary product of the self-explication of the Absolute, or God."
