Two thousand years ago Christ said: by the fruit shall you know the tree. Today, Trilogical Science says: by his acts shall you know the person.
The healthiest individuals and societies use their energies to accomplish goodness, beauty and truth, functioning somewhat like batteries that recharge themselves while in motion. People who are mentally and physically ill do not act and produce normally. Illness impedes the action of the human being and he becomes like a brokendown machine, sometimes stopping altogether. Thus, the first symptom of serious neurosis is when a person stops working.
In his book The Kingdom of Man, Vol. II, Keppe says that realization is an overflowing of love and truth from the essence of the well-balanced individual. It was through this understanding that the trilogical scientist formulated the experimental social and economic system now practiced in Trilogical Societies and Enterprises. Only through good and truthful action will man succeed in restoring the inner psychological equilibrium he has lost - his true essence.
L.A., a thirty-year-old American artist, said that as a child, she always did exactly the opposite of what her parents wanted her to do. According to her mother, the first word she learned to say was no. And even today, some thirty years later, L.A. admits that no is still the most common word in her vocabulary.
Although L.A. continues to behave in a contrary manner, she still has the potential to produce noteworthy artistic creations if she were to apply herself. She is especially talented in the visual arts and if she wished, could bring great happiness and pleasure to many people. Yet she deliberately refuses to produce.
In the first sessions of analysis she said she was tired of helping others instead of herself and that she needed to love herself before she could love others. Her attitude reflects the ego-oriented psychology that is predominant in the United States today.
In fact, L.A. was able to maintain a certain equilibrium from the little she produced. When she stopped working, she became profoundly depressed and withdrawn. She was not unhappy because she had placed others before herself; rather, she will be happy only when she forgets herself in order to give affection and help to others.
If we refuse to, or are prevented from, giving affection and working for the good of others and ourselves, we will have not the slightest chance of happiness. We deny the very purpose of life and oppose our internal structure, which is innately affectionate and giving.

Reflection:
Good, beautiful and true action is essential for the health, well-being and success of the individual and society because it is the purpose of life and in accordance with our own internal structure.
Do you realize that being happy is giving affection, helping others and working for the good of yourself and others?
