Internal and external balance

Education is presented as the healing of the spirit, to be in harmony with Nature, to cultivate the sense of the beautiful, and to aim at the virtuous. Regarding the healing of the spirit, the human mind is analyzed in two parts (a) that which is common to most higher living organisms, such as mammals, which have desire and anger necessary for living, and (b) the reason they have only the people. Based on this reasoning, the inner balance emerges where the primacy of the intellect, according to Plato, is logic and not the animal part of it (desire and anger). Regarding harmony with Nature, the rule of balance is followed, with limits of tolerance and exceptions, which determines the smooth functioning of entities in Nature, with human behavior having an external balance, where thoughts and actions are neither deficient nor excessive, but to follow an interval known as the middleness of Aristotle’s virtue and which enables an analytical scientific study of human error.
