No.

Righteousness is a mandatory requirement for all humans. However, there is a lizard brain inside you that undermines your commitment to righteousness. Happiness is the bribe that your lizard brain gives you to convince you to betray righteousness. Those who fail should be punished. Those who succeed have the duty of levying the punishment.

There is nothing else.
