His ontological argument is that God's existence can be deduced from his nature. He suggested that the concept of God is that of a supremely perfect being, holding all perfections. He seems to have assumed that perfection exists. Thus, if the notion of God did not include existence, it would not be supremely perfect, as it would be lacking a perfection.
