Sure, I'll buy that.

Somehing like a graduated scale between the perfect Good to lesser goods..

Each other. The smallest bits want to stick togethor and form wholes.

Sure. Aspects of reality other than the material.

Not exactly. Pleasure is still good, but less good than beneficence. The unrighteous give themselves a raw deal because they accept too much pain and harm in exchange for a small gain. The righteous are willing to sacrifice an appropriate amount of pain and discomfort in order to attain a greater good.
