• Resumen

  • Based on the writings of Saint Augustine, this article analyzes the understanding of the idea of good as a principle of vitality that guides human free will. Freedom consists of choosing and doing only the good. However, if man does not follow the path of righteousness indicated by reason, the desire for happiness carries him away, like a rapture that leads him to do good as the formula for a happy life.
