The Oracle Chapter 1 (Logos)
Thought
(Sképsi)
1. The Oracle defines thought, as the authentic and creative flow of ideas and associations that lead to a realistic and rational conclusion. Thoughts are conducive to the mind and necessary for the structure of philosophy. For our ideas to be conceived, they must have thought as their origin.
2. What originally encompasses thought is to many people, an insoluble mystery that contends its conceptualisation and viable function. It is comparative to the abstract notion of time. We know that time exists and that time functions in the perimeters of reality. Thought exists within the perimeters of the mind.
3. There is no absolute consensus as to how it is defined or understood, because thought underlies numerous human actions and interactions, understanding its physical and metaphysical origins, processes and effects. The Oracle teaching us that in the philosophical sense, it is the active mechanism for the mind.
4. We can only presuppose, with a certain intimation its natural composition and conglomeration. Aristotle the logician had stated that, although we would know thought is concatenated with our senses, thought does not require them to initiate its process. The mind produces knowledge when it is perceived or not, by or without our senses, such as in the knowledge of arithmetic, algebra and geometry.
5. What can be established is the fact that it originates from the mind with conspicuousness. Socrates had emphasised the need for thought, when he stated that understanding a question is half an answer. There is still so much about the world that we do not comprehend. We know only a small amount of its actual existence.
6. Thinking allows humans to comprehend, interpret and represent the engrossing capacity of logos. Aristotle had stated three forms of thinking. Productive thinking that is engaged in producing thought, Practical thinking that is engaged in deciding what to do with that though and finally, Theoretical thinking that is engaged in what is known of that thought.
7. Thought is aligned to cognitive or rational interpretation, which affects the manner in which we understand its entire process. Its fundamental role is to apply a construct that we can process with our mind and develop it afterwards.
8. Consciousness interprets the thought, intellect deciphers the thought and logic implements the importance of the thought. It is a natural and efficient process of rational thinking that is based on the meticulous concept of logos espoused by the Oracle.
9. This effective mechanism is the prescribed method in philosophy that proceeds, with an emphatical degree. Aristotle had stated that there were five states of the mind to reach the truth. Science, art, practical wisdom, intuitive reason, and theoretical application. By science he meant the act of drawing correct inferences, from premises known to be actual. By art he meant the kind of knowledge that enables us to make useful decisions. By practical wisdom he meant the power of deliberating how a state of being, which will satisfy us is to become existential. By intuitive reason he meant the complement to the excellence of science, which we know the premises from which those conclusions are introduced. Finally by theoretical application, he meant the application of thought that is understood, as all conceptual.
10. Thought is ignited by the mind that is its transcendental engine and sustenance. The conclusion of a thought differs from science to philosophy. Scientific conclusions of thought are based on the investigations undertaken by science, while in contrast, philosophic conclusions of thought are based more on common experiences.
11. If there is a thing that distinguishes animals from humans, it is our immense mind. Thought is the culmination of human expression. We must realise that with thought there is a noticeable contingency of contradiction; scilicet when referring to the state of our mind. Our mind can be our strongest ally, but at the same time be our strongest foe as well.
12. Animals depend on primarily the persistence of instinct, while humans for the most part on the application of thought. Instinct is the visible opposite of it and is regarded, as not equal to its imposed limitations, but it is instrumental at times to the operations of our actions engaged.
13. Aristotle had surmised three laws of thought, the Law of identity, the Law of Non-Contradiction and the Law of the Excluded Middle. The first signified that everything is the same as itself; or a statement cannot remain the same and change its true value. The second had signified that nothing can both exist and not exist at the same time and in the same respect; or no statement is both true and false. The third signified that something either exists or does not exist; or every statement is either true or false.
14. Thought is conducive to our behavioural actions and decisions that have been taken and processed. Anaxagoras once said, "Mind is the cause of all natural law and order, just as the mind is the cause of the orderliness and coherence of human action." The mind is what activates our thoughts.
15. Thought is in agreement with logos, as a cogitative element of its practice and participation. If mental properties are supervenient on physical properties, then people with identical bodies will as well have identical minds. This would suggest that even an abstract thing that is thought can influence indirectly or directly, with the physical mind and body.
16. Its anonymous factor is its noticeable cause and effect that proceeds to the heightened level of awareness that we must ascertain to know, what is its function and purpose. Within the structure of our mind, thoughts are constantly evolving with a celerity.
17. Thought cannot recognise completely what is good from bad alone, without the assistance and establishment of logic and consciousness. Ergo, the mind must correlate deeply with that precise thought, the perception that it represents in its totality.
18. Plato had once stated that thinking was the talking of the soul with itself, and opinion was the medium, between knowledge and ignorance. If the soul in the philosophy of the Oracle was able to communicate intrinsically with the mind, then the communication would be revealed by thoughts.
19. If we are to believe in that statement declared, then it is the mind that is the phrontistery of thought and the soul the recognition of thoughts. There is a clear difference and partiality, between what is proposed from a thought than what is generated from an idea. Thought tends to be more objective, while opinion more subjective.
20. What differentiates the value of thought from opinion is the notion that a sound thought is more practical, while opinion is more conditional. Opinions are conditioned to the thoughts elaborated, while thoughts are predicated on their practicality.
21. Opinion governs on the criterion of a certain response, but thought does not procure this necessary requirement. Thus, thought is much more effective when it is elucidated and when it is utilised for a particular purpose. A purpose that displays the activities of the mind.
22. What we presume to opine is not necessarily indicative of thought, instead, what we contemplate. Our contemplation allows for our thought to progress and evolve. What we should understand about thought is the fact that thought is interchangeable with opinion.
23. The mind is nourished by it, but it needs universal knowledge and wisdom too, to be able to consciously be effective in our lives. Without this knowledge and wisdom, our thoughts are incomplete and irrational. The essence of thought is preserved in the retention of memory.
24. From its original conception, we are given the access to the seed of knowledge and wisdom. It is for us humans to advance this seed with rational thinking, and for us to impart the teachings of philosophy. When we learn the meaning of what a thought is or what it consists of, then we are learning philosophy.
25. This access that we are permitted eventually evolves, into a distinct pattern of logic that will define the pattern of our mind and its function. Everything that is attached to logos has an important function that we should ascribe to its practice.
26. With each thought processed thoroughly, our mind gradually develops the thought with its recurrence. Thought permits us to enhance our mind tremendously, with things that will be our benefit. We must distinguish what benefits us and what leads to our self-destruction.
27. Thoughts are preserved in our vitalised memory, and correspond to the formulated pattern of our intrinsic logic. A logic that permits us to attempt to rationalise our thoughts efficaciously. When we are aware of this relevance, then we can process in our mind the basis for our thoughts.
28. Whereupon our mind, then becomes aware of the existential soul, with our nisus and our ability to distinguish thought plainly. It is important to emphasise that thought depends not only on our mind, but on our body to achieve the task of revealing our thoughts.
29. Thought signifies that it is a constant cycle of a repetitive act that we understand that forms a part of logic and the core of our beliefs, but it is also the indicated instrument for our assumed concepts, theories or arguments postulated.
30. Thought does not preclude or exclude irrationality as a possible consequence, but thought requires consciousness for a distinction to be formed, between a rational thought or an irrational thought. It is the individual, whose rationality must be questioned.
31. Judgement and cognisance are the determining factors that contribute to that understanding. Without either one of those factors, we simply lose the ability to reason. We must take into consideration that with our thoughts, there is a responsibility for them.
32. Nothing more can be expounded with introspection, from that concise analysis or presupposition, except the fact that we are constantly evolving in thought. Once we have realised the magnitude of the potentiality of our mind, we then better understand the range of our thinking.
33. The peculiar uniquity of that supposition is the establishment of a method of logic that is not at all hypothetical in its origin, but reliable. When we have a basis for our thoughts, then we are capable of engaging the mind with those thoughts.
34. Thought is controlled progressively, by the excellent stability of the mind and its extent. There are six different types of thought I have categorised as, Perirastic Thought (experimental), Heuristic Thought (problem solving), Telic Thought (aimed at a goal), Dianoetic Thought (reasonable), Alogistic Thought (illogical), and Epideictic Thought (rhetorical).
35. We cannot recognise thoughts, if we are incapable of deciphering their real meaning in actuality. Thoughts cannot exist on their own and be reasonable, if they do not have consciousness to support them. It is important that we have a sound mind, with a sound structure.
36. Therefore if this is not achieved, then it is worthless and relegated to a mere perception that is undefined in nature and the schematic variables of logic that are established. Nothing without purpose is meaningful, just as nothing without thought is nonexistent.
37. While it is feasible that the mind can be thoughtless and function on instinct, it becomes an unproductive vacuity in its primary capability. Instinct is not thought, as thought is not instinctive. There is a great difference, between the capacity of thought and the limitations of instinct.
38. Subsequently with instinct, the mental faculties of our mind cease to produce thoughts that enable our insight to gain sufficient knowledge and wisdom acquired. This is the reason that we should distinguish, between the necessity of thought and the basicness of instinct.
39. When instinct overtakes thought, we lose the total capacity of intellect with its imminution and vitality. Our thoughts are measured by our intellect and examined by our awareness. The things that we perceive are as significant as the things that we conceive.
40. Ergo, without thought, there is no actual knowledge or wisdom to base the principle of logos in philosophy. Logos must be consistent with thought. The philosophy of the Oracle inspires us to utilise our thoughts wisely and productively.
41. It is not a meiosis to state that the greatest gift to the mind is the non-variable purity of thought and its entire development revealed. A thought that matures in its purpose is a thought that is aligned to its principal function as well.
42. Thought is the one thing that is boundless in organisation and notability that we ascribe to its attachment and its fulfilment in life. When we are discussing thought, we are conscious about its capacity to be enhanced.
43. What we can assume to be definite in it can be indefinite in its main substance, and in the interpretation we perceive of that philosophic notion. The balance of the mind is intrinsically linked to the balance of our thoughts. This is firmly embedded in the concept of logos.
44. Nothing of a thought can be presumed to be accurate, if we do not use the application of reason and logic to prove the validity of that thought. This would indicate that thought is governed by the perception of what it represents in general.
45. When we apply thought, we are either in the process of an induced reasoning or a deduced affirmation. Either method is constructed for us to implement, if it is implemented rationally and effectively. When this is achieved, its purpose will be utile for our argument.
46. Perception does not define, whether it is a good or bad thought, until judgement is entirely facilitated and reached with our minds induced with reason. This is how we determine the difference between them. Philosophy teaches us to notice that definite contrast.
47. With sound judgement the culmination of thought is effectuated, and it necessitates the process with the outcome of that elaborate thought. What we do with our thoughts is mostly dependent on our decisions and actions that either enable our minds or disables them in thoughts.
48. To make the broad assertion that it is a considerable component of the mind is not a baseless assumption to be dismissed so foolishly outside of philosophy. What we should know about the subject of thoughts is that when they are controlled it is because of logic.
49. There has been for centuries the fascinating question, what is its ultimate definition per se? This question can be presumed to be answered by asking, what do we seek from it and what do we want its representation to mean? Until we realise the importance of that thought, then the answer will remain elusive and uncertain.
50. A thought is not artificial intelligence in its quintessence, but a natural function of the mind that is exhibited and produced to be meant for a particular purpose. The notion of an artificial thought would conclude with an artificial mind.
51. Naturally, we can confute the premise of this argument with alternative suppositions, but not with errant perceptions and interpretations that are unfounded. We must make the argument philosophical and rational in our discourse.
52. By exploiting our creativity, we can maximise the potential of that thought successfully and achieve our goals and aspirations in life. This component of the mind is one that ultimately conduces to the expansion of our thoughts and the discovery of abilities.
53. Creativity is formed from that singular thought that has become an emerging idea that is understood, from that predicate proposed. What makes our creativity boundless is the fact that we are conscious of the formation of our thoughts that are exhibited with intelligence.
54. In return, that idea advances the thought forward, into a mature concept that is conclusive in its consolidation. Thus, what could be interpreted by the progress of thoughts is that when our minds are engaged with our creativity, good thoughts are created and defined.
55. Indeed, it is of a mutual collaboration that benefits the progression of the mind and the ability to function together. When we learn about how much we are able to expand our thoughts continuously, then we consider the value of those thoughts produced.
56. What the mind can project with thoughts and ideas form, what is known to us ultimately as creativity. It is our creativity that we often depend on for the usage of our thoughts and for the ability to discover the reflection of our mind.
57. Creativity responds to such absolute thoughts and ideas that are formulated within our minds, with the ability to project thoughts that our minds expose knowingly. We must not forget that our thoughts are not only developed by the abstract utility of creativity.
58. Ergo, thoughts are the irrefutable origin to our creativity and logic exposed, at different intervals and demonstrative episodes in our lives. When we realise that our thoughts are measured by their effectiveness, then we understand their purport.
59. We can choose to understand the concept of thought as an element of logos, or accept it as an indefinite mystery that is insoluble in nature. When we actually make the determination that it is practical as it is useful, we are acknowledging the importance of its function to the mind.
60. Its eventual preservation is the acknowledgement of the cycle that begins and abates with the concept of logos. Thoughts can be assumed to be an example of a repetitive cycle, nevertheless, they are extremely vital to the sustenance of logos.
61. Within the singularity of a thought, we can demonstrate the effect of its obvious inducement, and at the same time be mindful of how that thought operates in its function. A rational thought is capable of many important things, but it cannot be productive without consciousness.
62. The faculties of the mind are reasonably associated to the preservation of the body and soul. The Oracle professes the need for that preservation and necessity. It inform us about the operations and methods that the mind utilises in regard to thought.
63. Thought is an endless process of continual application that determines our actions knowingly, and once it is determined, we can proceed with the attainment of knowledge and wisdom also. To have a firm comprehension about our thoughts, we must find transparency in those thoughts, so that we can determine their validity.
64. It is futile to reject the notion of its relevant nature, when it operates in accordance to the teachings of philosophy. Therefore, it should be known to us that in the philosophic sense, what we accept as factual, usually is what is presumed to be the case.
65. Hence, the imposition of thought is recognised, within the keen method of its verification and purpose. Thought is meant to be the vehicle of our viable expression. It is significant that we understand that thought is what we depend on for such things as concepts, theories, ideas inter alia.
66. We muse the possibility of its capacity to extend, beyond the unexplored boundaries of the comprehensibility of the mind. The mind permits us the ability to observe and perceive things that we consider abstract. The things that form a part of reality, tend to be the things that are much more understandable.
67. Can there be a cosignificative comparison of thought to the state of our awareness? Indeed, that question could be answered by acknowledging that we are conscious beings. It is not a question of whether we possess consciousness, but when do we discover the importance of consciousness?
68. Our thoughts form part of our consciousness, and we should not dismiss those rational thoughts that are consistent with our judgement. What is the main difference, with a conscious and subconscious thought? This is a question that involves the keen introspection of the mind.
69. If we evaluate the definition, then we would discover that the only difference is the actual perception of each condition. We could define the germaneness of that condition with what we understand them to mean, or simply what those states of mind represent in their totality.
70. The concept that is mostly attached to this philosophy is the procurement of the basis of thought and its logical form. Thought can be defined in different connotations or described in a plethora of representations, but what should be emphasised is the practicality of thought.
71. The mind is the instrument to thought and it conduces the motion or movements of its accessibility to our actions. The mind is supposed to be in control of thought. When it is not, then it becomes irrational. This is how we determine the value of our actions.
72. As with a mathematical equation, the process is then determined, within the sequential episode of its introduction and its deduction. By using the method of deduction, we are perceiving the meaning of thought and how it enables our mind to function.
73. We adduce the relativisation of the concept, within the primary achievement of its induction and pattern unfolded, with the concept of logic. It is logic that maintains the order of thought and permits us to analyse and effectuate the effectiveness of our thoughts.
74. What can be stipulated as an irrefragable deduction of logos is the authenticity of its elements and its coherence. When our thoughts are truly rational, then our mind proceeds to decipher those thoughts with precision. It is that precision that we inherit with time.
75. Thought represents the essential reason of our consistent pattern of questioning that contributes to the emergent nous that is existential with the mind. When we seek the answers to our questions, we are acknowledging that we are not only inquisitive in nature, but determined to resolve our curiosities.
76. There is the prevailing sense that our mind is nourished constantly by the activity of thought, and its important participation with our consciousness. The basic function of thought is to emerge into the pattern of concrete concepts and ideas that could be established as rational.
77. The mind is the nonpareil authority that governs our quotidian thoughts, emotions and actions expressed willingly, but our thoughts are designed to be more elaborated than emotions. What makes thoughts more constructive is what we produce with them.
78. If we accentuate the true meaning of expression, we discover the intrinsic part of our quondam experiences shared and proportioned by time. In time, we discover the meaning about our thoughts and how to use them wisely and efficiently.
79. The Oracle is the sole exponent of this philosophy, and the abundant source of information that provides us with its teachings. Teachings which are to serve us knowingly, as a precursor to the acknowledgement of our thoughts. To be intuitive of our thoughts is to be cognisant about their relevance.
80. From the plethora of thoughts, the mind expands its active output of concepts and facts, and develops them into a certain pattern of knowledge that we can recognise as factual and logical. In this regard, we should be attentive to the operations of the mind.
81. The mind is the supreme mechanism, and thoughts are the important elements that initiate the absorbing process that continues to progress with time. The ability that we have to decipher thoughts, depends on the ability we have to understand their intricate nature.
82. Thus, what must be explicated is the experimental stage of our mind for the recognition of the essence of that process and the benefit of its rewards. When we fail to understand things related to thoughts, we are not aware about their full capability.
83. Consequently, it is fundamental that we don't manipulate the conceptualised process of thinking impigrously, and believe that we know everything about the world and life in general. This misconception will only cause a person to misinterpret, the function and purpose of our thoughts.
84. If we enable the mind to think, then the reality of thoughts becoming established ideas that proceed, into a considerable value is plausible and rational. The mind must be in agreement with the body and soul, in order to reach the ultimate understanding of thought.
85. This unique conversion can epitomise the state of the mind gradually, within its optimal manifestation and productivity. When thoughts of ratiocination evolve, they empower the mind to create and process thoughts. This in return, makes those thoughts coherent in nature.
86. What thought provides is a methodical way to better understand the operations of the mind and how it functions properly, in accordance with logic. When we understand logic, then we are capable of making the assumption that we understand the system in which logic operates.
87. Without its structure, every action of logos is rendered inefficient, and with futility and dissolution that cannot be measured with rational thinking. There is nothing good about irrationality, and it is better to remind ourselves of the capacity of the mind and the limitations of our thoughts when not congruent.
88. The entire period that involves the mind, our knowledge, logic, wisdom, intellect, consciousness and thought is imperative to a coherent cohesion that links the mind with its operations. Thoughts do not sustain themselves, they require the mind.
89. What then exemplifies the precept of logos is the genuine form of the continuum of philosophy we aspire to obtain from the Oracle. Once we realise that in life, we must search for things that are compatible to our rationality, then we are conscious about thought.
90. There is a conclusive pattern to thought. When we utilise it in an effective manner, we find the wonder of the mind expressed. This permits us to explore the boundaries of our mind and the creativity of our thoughts. Once we achieve this, we are enlightened with the seed of wisdom.
91. As human beings, we are constantly evolving, in our uninhibited thoughts and ideas formulated. In order to understand ourselves, we must first discover, who we are in essence and what represents us in our totality. Then, we could attempt to rationalise the meaning of our thoughts processed.
92. Often, we ascribe the belief that the mind is totally empty without thoughts and non-essential in their nature. It is a contrast, we often denote with the teachings of philosophy. There are things that we regard as relevant and other things that we understand as being irrelevant.
93. To acknowledge that, we must denote the fact that although we are conscious through instinct and intuition, it is thought that supplies the mind with immeasurable ideas and opinions that we value with substance. A substance that is attached to those thoughts.
94. We are not truly guaranteed a semblance of substance by logos, if we do not apply any true resemblance of thought practised. Ergo, we require rational thought for the basis of our logic, and once we have mastered the mechanism of the mind, then we have mastered our thoughts.
95. Within the general concept of logos, we have knowledge that sustains our mind, and is a metonymy of philosophy that represents the actual core of a belief. A belief that sustains itself, with the strength of the mind and the exploration of thought.
96. When we cogitate, we are thinking. When we enforce action, we are using a form of unmistakable expression that permits us to advance in our thoughts coherently. Thoughts that personify, the manifestation of the underlying principles of philosophy.
97. Thought is a clear indication that we are in control of our awareness, when the mind is lucid and transparent, but when not and provoked erroneously, then it is certainly uncontrollable in its decisions and actions. We should not permit emotions to override our thoughts.
98. The transparent demonstration of that illustration is the creativity we possess that permits us to enhance our ability to expand our thoughts knowingly, from the inmost depths of our minds that conceive those perceived thoughts conveyed.
99. From that developing mind, we can measure the actual amount of our thoughts calculated and presented within our actions taken. What is important to the concept of thought is that we establish with the mind a purpose and function for thought.
100. The prevailing thought is that to understand philosophy in its true essence, we must emerge ourselves in thought. In the end, the elements of knowledge, wisdom, logic, intellect, consciousness and thought form the intrinsic concept of logos.
