Excerpt from Plotinus the Ethical Treatises; Being the Treatises of the First Ennead With Porphyry's Life of Plotinus, and the Preller-Ritter Extracts Forming a Conspectus of the Plotinian System
In the Intellectual Kosmos dwells Authentic Essence, with the intellectual-principle (divine Mind) as the noblest of its content, but containing also souls, since every soul in this lower sphere has come thence that is the world of unembodied spirits while to our world belong those that have entered body and undergone bodily division.
There the intellectual-principle is a concentrated all-nothing of it distinguished or divided - and in that kosmos of unity all souls are concentrated also, with no spatial discrimination.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature and essence of the soul from the perspective of Greek philosopher Plotinus. Positioned within the broader context of ancient philosophical enquiry into the soul, it delves into its relationship with the divine, the body, and the wider cosmos. The author presents a nuanced understanding of the soul as a multi-faceted entity, both unified and diverse, indivisible and yet capable of inhabiting multiple realms. Through intricate arguments and analysis, the book examines the soul's descent into the material world, its connection to the Intellectual-Principle, and the interplay between its higher and lower aspects. The author's insights shed light on the complexities of human existence, offering valuable perspectives on the nature of our being, our connection to the divine, and the journey of the soul.
