Mystical Thinking Is Not Counter To The Aristotelian Logic. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Mystical thinking is not counter
to the Aristotelian logic of Thomism.


The way of darkness of the intellect
requires a Via Amoris for the will.

In the darkness of doubt
we ask many questions.
In this darkness,
some fall away
into atheism.

On this dark way both intellect
and will must ultimately
be possessed and transfigured
by the action of the grace of God.

These special inspirations
Flow from the Spirit of God
who is beyond all religions.

Even when the understanding
isin darkness
one must walk by faith,
and in the obscurity of faith
God unites
Him to the intellect.

(Via Amoris = Way of love)
(Thomism is the philosophical school that arose with the thoughts of Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) , philosopher, theologian. In philosophy, Aquinas' disputed questions and commentaries on Aristotle are perhaps his most well-known works.)
