   Extractions: Proclus' life Proclus' Metaphysics Ploclus' theurgy The Knowable and the Unknowable Godhead ... Iamblichus Proclus Pseudo-Dionysius Later influences Proclus Diadochus (410/412 - 485 c.e.) was the last of the great Platonic teachers. Born in Constantinople into a well-off family, he was sent to Alexandria for schooling and was taught philosophy by the Aristotlean philosopher Olympiodorus the Elder, and mathematics by Heron (not to be confused with a more famous mathematician of the same name). It seemed he was not satisfied there, for w hile still a teenager he moved from Alexandria to Athens where he studied at Plato's Academy under the philosophers Plutarch and Syrianus. He was soon teaching at the Academy, and succeeded Syrianus as administrator of the Athenian School, eventually becoming director, a position he held for the rest of his life. The title Diadochus was given to him at this time, the meaning of the word being successor. As well as being a poet, philosopher, and scientist, Proclus was also an exponent of religious universalism. He believed the true philosopher should pay homage to the gods of all nations, becoming "a priest of the entire universe." He was initiated into a number of mystery schools, composed hymns to the gods, fasted in honor of the Egyptian divinities, practiced theurgy , and opposed Christianity with it's expectation of the end of the world. He was a

   Extractions: On the Signs of Divine Possession © Stephen Ronan, 1998 ON THE SIGNS OF DIVINE POSSESSION is my title for an extract from Proclus preserved in a work by the Byzantine Christian Neoplatonist, Michael Psellus, in his Accusation against Michael Cerularius before the Synod (Pros tên sunodon katêgoria tou archiros) ed. by É. des Places Oracles Chaldaiques Paris (Les Belles Lettres) 1971. This extract, brief though it is, gives crucial information on how the later Pagan tradition experienced and understood the phenomena of divine possession. It has obvious importance for studies on trance and possession, and for theurgy, that much-misunderstood ritual practice of late antiquity. But it is also relevant for the study of consecration and invocation in ritual, as well as mediums and mediumship in general, spiritualism, gossolalia, and states of trance in magical and healing contexts. I plan to discuss this text, and theurgy in general, in much more detail on these pages. Stay tuned! In the translation which follows, square brackets like this [ ] indicate editorial additions, which are there to clarify the meaning of the text.

"When I see the need there is for divine teaching and how hungry people are to hear it, I am atremble to be off and running throughout the world, preaching the Word of God. I have no rest. My soul finds no other relief than to rush about and preach." "If God's Word is spoken by a priest who is filled with the fire of charitythe fire of love of God and neighborit will wound vices, kill sins, convert sinners, and work wonders." "When I am before the Blessed Sacrament I feel such a lively faith that I cannot describe it. Christ in the Eucharist is almost tangible to me. . . . When it is time for me to leave, I have to tear myself away from His sacred presence." St. Antony Claret

13. Greek Philosophy [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy]
    The philosophical currents of Ancient Greek philosophy are introduced, from the Presocratic philosophers through to proclus.  
    http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/g/greekphi.htm
    
    Extractions: Presocratics Our western philosophical tradition began in ancient Greece in the 6th century BCE. The first philosophers are called "Presocratics" which designates that they came before Socrates. The Presocratics were from either the eastern or western regions of the Greek world. Athens home of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle is in the central Greek region and was late in joining the philosophical game. The Presocratic's most distinguishing feature is emphasis on questions of physics; indeed, Aristotle refers to them as "Investigators of Nature". Their scientific interests included mathematics, astronomy, and biology. As the first philosophers, though, they emphasized the rational unity of things, and rejected mythological explanations of the world. Only fragments of the original writings of the presocratics survive, in some cases merely a single sentence. The knowledge we have of them derives from accounts of early philosophers, such as Aristotle's Physics and Metaphysics The Opinions of the Physicists by Aristotle's pupil Theophratus, and Simplicius, a Neoplatonist who compiled existing quotes.

Perhaps the connection is less obvious with Gawain . It must be realized that this story contains multi-leveled metaphors which approach modern literature in their complexity. Argument will be made that Gawain betrays an isomorphism with Eden's tale. The author's attitude toward the fruit and perhaps toward fasting will become evident. Bynum's incisive argument has been extremely helpful in this analysis of

18. The Life Of Proclus
    The Life of proclus or Concerning Happiness. Being the Biographical Accountof an Ancient Greek Philosopher Who Was Innately Loved by the Gods.  
    http://www.phanes.com/lifpro.html
    
    Extractions: Concerning Happiness P OET, PHILOSOPHER, AND SCIENTIST, Proclus (412-485 C.E.) was one of the last official teachers of the Platonic Academy in Athens, before the teaching of philosophy was legally forbidden in 529 by edict of the Emperor Justinian. Besides his philosophical and scientific achievements, the modern reader is impressed by Proclus's religious universalism, for Proclus believed that the true philosopher should pay homage to the gods of all nations, becoming "a priest of the entire universe." Initiated into the mysteries of Greece and other lands, Proclus fasted in honor of the Egyptian divinities, practiced the sacred art of theurgy (a type of philosophical "magic"), and opposed the Christian expectation of the end of the world, for which he was temporarily banished. Whereas most men have to acquire the principle virtues through long effort, Proclus seemd to innately possess them since birth. His student and biographer Marinus of Samaria stated that he was inspired, and that when philosophizing his countenance shone with preternatural light. This volume contains the inspiring biography of "this really blessed man," and its publication marks the exact 1,500 year anniversary of when it was first written. Also included are Five Hymns of Proclus translated by Thomas Taylor, a complete listing of Proclus's voluminous writings, and an introduction by John Michell.
