OUR GUARDIAN HELPS US TO CARRY OUT THE DESTINY WE HAVE CHOSEN.
Project Gutenberg EPUB3 edition
Plotinus and Guthrie, Kenneth Sylvan
One can still understand thus why he says that our guardian helps us to fulfil the destiny we have chosen. In fact, presiding over our life, he does not permit us to descend very far below the condition we have chosen. But that which then is active is the principle below the guardian and which can neither transcend him, nor equal him; for he could not become different from what he is.
