Character is represented by the sum of moral qualities of the individual, such as his virtues and the sum spiritual values achieved from incarnation to incarnation.
This valuable attribute expresses the level of spirituality of the human being, which can be measured by firmness and rectitude displayed in everyday life.
More than honesty of conduct in business transactions or in the exercise of any function, character is revealed by the uncompromising repulsion to pusilanimity, intrigue, envy, dubious attitudes, falsehood, disloyalty, treachery, in short, all undignified actions.
In reality, there are few human beings possessing a truly polished character. This is because only in the last earthly reincarnations can this atoning be considered perfect.
The cultured individual does not always have the best character, for a large number of them use culture and level of education as instruments of cleverness and deceit.
One cannot deny, however, the advantage, and more than the advantage, the need for education and culture for making a major contribution to the development of intelligence and reasoning, the means by which the spirit analyzes, confronts, deduces and concludes, in order to come to conclusions in the search for truth about life.
