Duty
Living means taking responsibility for fulfilling the tasks that life continually assigns to each individual. Aristotle says: "regarding relationships, we must always strive to honor each one with the distinctions that belong to him, and discern what exactly should be given to each according to the degree of kinship, merit or intimacy." Duty is the obligation that is established from the use of something or someone.
In the mandala of emotions, belief belongs to the family of passions. Duty and power are two brothers with antagonistic paths in relation to objects and people. The consequence of power is duty. I must because I can. The other side of duty is the intention (approaching), two opposite points in the cycle of transformations that goes from rest to movement.
