Spirt and Practical Reason

Kant's principle of Pure Practical Reason defines an act of legislation, i. e. according to ii, a Rational agent creates laws.  Thus, a Rational agent can obey a given law only by re-legislating it, for, otherwise, mere law-abidingness contravenes the principle.  Furthermore, to establish some conduct as a law is to set it as an example, i. e. maxim-universalization is example-setting.  In other words, Practical Reason originates exemplary action in the same way that Spirit originates exemplary artistic works, thereby reinforcing the thesis, only briefly entertained by Kant explicitly, that they are one and the same.
