Hi Folks,

Here's a page form the first treatise of the first Ennead (The Animate and the Man)

'I,1.8. And how do we possess the Divinity?
In that the Divinity is contained in the Intellectual-Principle and Authentic-Existence; and We come third in
order after these two, for the We is constituted by a union of the supreme, the undivided Soul- we read- and
that Soul which is divided among [living] bodies. For, note, we inevitably think of the Soul, though one
undivided in the All, as being present to bodies in division: in so far as any bodies are Animates, the Soul
has given itself to each of the separate material mes; or rather it appears to be present in the bodies by the
fact that it shines into them: it makes them living beings not by merging into body but by giving forth,
without any change in itself, images or likenesses of itself like one face caught by many mirrors.'

Regards, Mark
