Notes
Eudaimonia is syncretic with the LP concept of alignment, which sees the body as a vehicle for Spiritual Ego and sees the goal of life as the development of a fully functioning physical unit capable of providing proper expression of the spiritual ego. Once is happy when one is aligned with the spiritual ego, expressing, and creating in the world as it intends.
