Plotinus · Philosophy
Plotinus’ vision of <em>the One</em> - the absolutely simple, ineffable source of all things, beyond being, beyond thought, beyond all distinction; the ultimate ground from which everything flows and to which the soul longs to return.
You learned that Plotinus made the One the ultimate principle: utterly simple, beyond all multiplicity and distinction, beyond being and even beyond thought, the ineffable source from which all things flow. Because it has no parts and no qualities, we can scarcely even name it. Explain the One in your own words.
Leads to Parmenides.
