Holding the spirit , high...

A man who has gone through all experiences and has held his spirit high, not allowing it to be
stained, such a man may be said to be pure-minded.

The person who could be called pure because he had no knowledge of either good or evil would in reality be merely a simpleton.

To go through all that takes away the original purity and yet to rise above everything that seeks to overwhelm it and drag it down, that is spirituality; the light of the spirit held high and burning clear and pure.
