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 e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. 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.
