THE DOCTRINE OF CHARITY
Man has been so created that he can look upward, or above himself; and can also look downward, or below himself. To look above himself is to look to his neighbor, to his country, to the church, to heaven, especially to the Lord; but to look below himself is to look to the earth, to the world, and especially to himself.

TEACHINGS ABOUT CHARITY
The human being has been created in such a way that he can look upwards or above self, and also downwards or below self. Looking above self consists in looking towards neighbour, country, Church, heaven, and especially the Lord; but looking below self is looking towards the earth, the world, and especially self.

7814. EXODI CAPUT DUODECIMUM DOCTRINA CHARITATISHomo ita creatus est ut spectare possit sursum seu supra se, et quoque spectare deorsum seu infra se. Spectare supra se est ad proximum, ad patriam, ad Ecclesiam, ad caelum, imprimis ad Dominum; spectare autem infra se est ad tellurem, ad mundum, et imprimis ad se.
