Next to the above is he who cultivates to the
utmost the shoots of goodness in him. From those
he can attain to the possession of sincerity. This
sincerity becomes apparent. From being apparent, it
becomes manifest. From being manifest, it becomes
brilliant. Brilliant, it affects others. Affecting others,
they are changed by it. Changed by it, they are
transformed. It is only he who is possessed of the
most complete sincerity that can exist under heaven,
who can transform.
