Knowing from the moment that Felicity, that to which the ancients and the moderns aspire, is only obtained through science and action, as long as both involve a minimum of discernment... because it It is necessary to recognize what is science and what is not and to recognize what is a profitable act and what is not. Such a quest also requires a mîzân (a balance, evaluation, measurement...).

So we want to deal with the question thoroughly and show that it is absurd to seek Bliss in a nonchalant manner. Then, we will confirm that science and action constitute the only way to achieve Bliss. Next, we will clarify what science is by indicating the process of its acquisition. After which we will examine the beatifying act and how to achieve it.

All this will be done by means of a method superior to that of slavish imitation to reach the limit of the obvious.

Thus we become aware of the action which leads to Bliss and we differentiate it from that which leads to damnation.
