I started this work with the aim of opening the door to the Good. Reaching the end, I now realize that my intentions were nothing but wishful thinking. All I have achieved is to stand outside - like in Kafka's story, where the man stands outside the door of the Law - and to deal with the properties of the Good, just as the hero in the above story deals with the fleas on the collar of the guard, hoping that the fleas will convince the guard to let him pass.
But the first step has been taken: I have finally denied my amlethian egocentrism and have entered the path of a Don Quixote ideal. Perhaps, the only possibility of grasping the reference to the Good is to hypothetically shape it and express a Platonic ideal: if we grasp the Good, then reason is true, where true reason is correct reason. Perhaps, also, this hypothetical proposition is the only bridge to the Good.
But we cannot stop there. We must move on to what will determine our position within the world: to Action.
