Ideal can be divided into five aspects, of which the first is the ideal which one has for oneself. It might begin to show itself as a whim, as a dream, as an imagination, even as an expectation of a child. If a child says, "When I am grown-up I will have an elephant to ride upon, or a beautiful horse," this is an ideal. And this first aspect of the ideal can again be divided into three classes.

1. The first is when one says, "I shall possess this or that -- I shall have so much wealth, so many gardens, so many places, or, surround myself with so much grandeur that I shall appear quite different from anyone else."
2. The next is when one says, "I shall be the Prime Minister or the President of the country or have a throne and crown."
3. And the third class is when one says, "I shall keep to this particular virtue, I shall be pious", or, "I shall be good every sense of the word", or, "I shall be that which I consider good and beautiful in myself."
