There are three types of people: carnal, mental and spiritual.
The carnal person wants everything of the flesh, seeks rest, loves praise, does not want to be derided, does not accept the cutting off of their will, defends himself. The mental again does not want to do injustice, nor do they want to suffer injustice. The spiritual person thinks everything of the spirit, and if they suffer unjustly they rejoice, and if they are derided they are grateful.
