Likewise, Plotinus saw that goodness is the highest degree of beauty, and that beauty is goodness, and it must be present in the one (the first), and it is issued directly to the mind, and from the mind to the soul. The ultimate goal for all people is to reach the highest degrees of beauty. Goodness and beauty are linked together and inseparable, as they are associated with religious rituals. Reaching religious purification is achieving goodness and beauty.
