loss,
but
out
of
the
divine
plan,
which
makes
all
things
one
and
all
things
God.
So
the
soul
is
in-different
as
to
whether
it
be
in
one
state
or
another,
in
one
place
or
another
:
all
is
the
same
to
it,
and
it
lets
itself
be
carried
along
naturally.
It
ceases
to
think,
to
wish,
or
to
choose
for
itself;
but
re-mains
content,
without
care
or
anxiety,
no
longer
distinguishing
its
inner
life
to
speak
of
it
Indeed
it
may
be
said
not
to
possess
one
:
it
is
no
longer
in
itself;
it
is
all
in
God.
It
is
not
necessary
for
it
to
shut
itself
up
within
itself;
it
does
not
hope
to
find
anything
there,
and
does
not
seek
for
it.
If
a
person
were
altogether
penetrated
with
the
sea,
having
sea
within
and
without,
above
and
below,
on
every
side,
he
would
not
prefer
one
place
to
another,
all
being
the
same
to
him.
So
the
soul
does
not
trouble
itself
to
seek
anything
or
to
do
anything;
that
is,
of
itself,
by
itself,
or
for
itself.
It
remains
as
it
is.
But
what
does
it
do?
No-thing
—
always
nothing.
It
does
what
it
is
made
to
do,
it
suffers
what
it
is
made
to
suffer.
Its
peace
is
unchangeable,
but
always
natural.
It
has,
as
it
were,
passed
into
a
state
of
nature
;
and
