SUMMARY:The Gods in Platonic Philosophy - open session in London
DESCRIPTION:Although the outlines of Platonic philosophy are reasonably wel
 l-known in the modern world\, the divine foundation of ancient Platonism i
 s widely neglected. The Platonic axiom “All things are full of the Gods
 ” underpins the link between philosophy and religion in the ancient worl
 d – we will explore and discuss this\, using extracts from Plato\, Ploti
 nus and Proclus.\n\nThis event is free but if you can please donate £5 or
  more in order to cover our costs\, either as cash on the day or donating 
 through this website\n\nMost of these evenings are self-contained and ever
 y effort is made to make them accessible to the newcomer\, while allowing 
 the great profundity of the Platonic tradition to step forward and speak t
 o us at whatever level our present understanding sits. Some of these sess
 ions are coupled together\, in order to give us the space to examine more 
 fully particular texts and themes\, but even here we will ensure that if t
 hose attending have missed the first of the two sessions a recap of what 
 has gone before will help all participants to pick up the main threads of 
 the theme.\n\nThe Trust has run similar activities for some 18 years\, and
  in our experience they allow the most profound questions concerning human
  life\, the nature of reality\, and our interactions\, to be explored at o
 nce both seriously and with good cheer. Our aim is to provide a forum for
  honest and straight-forward enquiry\, but which is unafraid to explore in
 ward-moving paths too often neglected by modern schools of thought.\n\nCli
 ck on the London tag under Event type to be taken to all upcoming activiti
 es in London.\n\nPlease download the paper that we will use for the basis 
 of our exploration of this subject: The Gods in Platonic Philosophy
