Talking with the Cosmos

In this exploration, Nigel Glassborow explains that, "from the Stoic perspective it makes perfect sense to recognise that we can commune with the Cosmos in that we share in its Logos – its mind faculty." He continues, "Through the ‘active principle’ we are individuals while also being one with the Cosmos and all that is manifested within it. This aspect of our metaphysics offers a place for such matters as Socrates’ daimonion, whereby we can be guided by a ‘divine something’."
