Elements of Theology: Causality of Nous
we discuss prop. 172-175, with a special focus on 174, which shows that Nous is just as much a cause of being as it is a cause of knowledge and 175 which starts the criticism of Plotinus on nous. We talk about what the practical difference between Plotinus' and Proclus' views on nous might be and come to the conclusion that it is about the weight of vocation and choice in education.
