361) Being soft to another in matters deserving punishment, man is only being soft to himself, his weaknesses, his preferences.

362) Vital generosity is of that character __ of being generous to oneself __ while spiritual generosity is truly generous to the other person.

363) In Sri Aurobindonian language, even that lends itself to be interpreted as generous to one’s own spirit. (The Supreme is the greatest Egoist.)

364)   The civilised man who cannot ask for a free meal or a free gift, does not hesitate to rob another of his right by seeking stolen pleasure. Man becomes truly civilised only when he denies himself stolen pleasure.
