Translated by Thomas Taylor

Click here to return to the home page Click here to return to the main catalogue From volume 15 of the Thomas Taylor Series, p. 195 to 239. Proclus on the Gods, prayer and perception. [64A to 79B] The divine Iamblichus however, does not think that a history of this kind pertains to what is here proposed to be considered. For Plato is not now speaking about atheistical men, but about such as are wise, and able to converse with the Gods. Nor does he speak of such as are dubious about the works of piety; but to such as wish to be saved by those who are the saviours of wholes, he delivers the power of prayer, and its admirable and supernatural perfection which transcends all expectation. But to this conversion prayer is of the greatest utility. For it attracts to itself the beneficence of the Gods, through those ineffable symbols which the father of souls has disseminated in them. It likewise unites those who pray with those to whom prayer is addressed; conjoins the intellect of the Gods with the words of those who pray; excites the will of those who perfectly comprehend good to the abundant communication of it; is the fabricator of divine persuasion; and establishes in the Gods all that we possess. Tim. "But, O Socrates, all such as participate but in the least degree of temperance, [i.e. wisdom] in the impulse to every undertaking, whether small or great, always invoke divinity."

Proclus
From LoveToKnow 1911
PROCLUS, or Proculus (A.D. 410-485), the chief representative of the later Neoplatonists, was born at Constantinople , but xxl1.14 brought up at Xanthus in Lycia . Having studied grammar under Orion and philosophy under Olympiodorus the Peripatetic, at Alexandria , he proceeded to Athens . There he attended the lectures of the Neoplatonists Plutarch and Syrianus , and about 450 succeeded the latter in the chair of philosophy (hence his surname Diadochus, which, however, is referred by others to his being the "successor" of Plato ). As an ardent upholder of the old pagan religion Proclus incurred the hatred of the Christians, and was obliged to take refuge in Asia Minor . After a year's absence he returned to Athens, where he remained until his death. His epitaph , written by himself, is to be found in Anthologia palatina, vii. 451. Although possessed of ample means, Proclus led a most temperate, even ascetic life, and employed his wealth in generous relief of the poor. He was supposed to hold communion with the gods, who endowed him with miraculous powers. He acted up to his famous saying that "the philosopher should be the hierophant of the whole world" by celebrating Egyptian and Chaldaean as well as Greek festivals, and on certain days performing sacred rites in honour of all the dead. His great literary activity was chiefly devoted to the elucidation of the writings of Plato. There are still extant commentaries on the

Chapter 3
Proclus' Elements
The book is Proclus' Elements of Theology . By 1017 this fifth-century text had likely made its way to Dar al-Hikma. It would have been nestled in the cabinet beside its more popular (and pseudonymous) abridgment, Aristotle's Book of Causes
The Elements of Theology Elements may be the most orderly proof of immortality ever composed by a Hellenic philosopher. In this essay I will present a few Elements which abstract Proclus' argument. This presentation will pass quickly to a critique. The critique brings Proclus' image of the soul into focus, as it disentangles the knot of his immortality argument.
thought , in the preparatory conclusion of Chapter 7. Many readers may imagine the critical material to be unnecessary, or even pointless. It is neither; but here I think a longwinded explanation would take us too far afield, so I'll refrain. Chapter 7 will come soon enough. Only, here especially I must beg for the reader's patience and trust. We take up the seamed volume. Leather opens to paper, paper opens to words.

PROCLUS 16.1 N by 46.8 E LUNAR TRANSIENT PHENOMENA HISTORY BY DAVID O. DARLING "A brilliant crater west of Mare Crisium, 18 miles in diameter and 8000 feet deep. Proclus is one of the brightest points on the Moon, and is the centre of a ray-system; there is a low central mountain. The rays cross Mare Crisium, but not the Palus Somnii, which is bounded by rays to either side. There are both bright and dusky bands on the inner walls of Proclus." New Guide to the Moon 1976. By Patrick Moore. Clementine image, NASA The crater Proclus has a very interesting history when looking at the historic L.T.P. record. When looking at the most active days during the lunation three days stand out. They are eight, ten and fifteen day old Moon. My own experience with this crater is observing a strange electric arc blue color during a lunar eclipse and an extreme darkening event inside the crater. Also changes in albedo have been documented during extended monitoring of this crater. It was also mentioned in one of my many books on the Moon that in the early days of Selenology, observers reported that Proclus was a dark feature, not what it is today being one of the brightest on the Moon. The brightness of this crater can rival that of Aristarchus. Graph © by David O. Darling, Director L.T.P. Research.

http://www.spirasolaris.ca/sbb4e.html
PART V. SPIRA SOLARIS AND THE CHALDEAN ORACLES A. THE CHALDEAN ORACLES
In considering the astronomical elements in ancients works it seemed advisable to examine the origins of later scientific advances associated in one way or another with these earlier sources. This was especially so with respect to the contributions made by both Galileo and Kepler in light of their acknowledged use of materials provided in Plato's . But this was only one facet of a much wider investigation. Another concerned technical details long-buried in the Babylonian astronomical cuneiform texts of the Seleucid Era [310 BC - 75 A.D.] - information that only surfaced during the latter part of the previous century and has yet to see the light of day even now. Irrespective of how much or how little this neglected corpus of technical knowledge is regarded, there still remains the leading question why Babylonian astronomy was so obviously concerned with synodic motion and varying orbital velocity . It was this question that generated sufficient interest in astronomy and mathematics to apply the general synodic relationship in Parts I and II of the present work. As shown in these earlier sections, this was the vital step that provided the necessary understanding to the "Golden Section" and the Phi- Series in the present astronomical context. From this viewpoint it was a logical step to consider next the contents of the

The Hippopede of Proclus
"Hippopede" means the foot of a horse and/or the shackle attached to the foot of a horse. The shackle is called a "fetter."
1. The implicit equation in the xy- plane is where a and b are positive constants. This is a curve with reflectional symmetry about both the horizontal and vertical axes. 2. Any Hippopede is the intersection of a torus with one of its tangent planes that is parallel to its axis of rotational symmetry, as demonstrated in the animation. 3. Converting the implicit equation to polar coordinates gives so the origin at r = is a solution, and the remainder of the curve is given by b a, the point at the origin is an isolated node and the balance of the solution set is a simple closed curve, also called an Elliptic Lemniscate of Booth.
The b a special case is given by the rational parametrization
Each of these curves is the image of an ellipse under an inversion in a circle. The circle and the ellipse must have the same center. The curve is non-convex for

Calorie Restriction, Resveratrol Michael L. Love Ph.D
Wed Feb 8 18:48:35 EST 2006
The scene was 1968 and the country was mired in war, but many were disengaging from US society and protesting the war. At this time, there was a fellow named Timothy Leary, who became famous because he got kicked out of Harvard for his research. Leary lived a colorful life, ran for governor of California, attended Woodstock, and generally shocked greatly the powers that be. It also turns out that he was a great futurist. Leary predicted the discovery of genetic mechanisms that would unlock the door to life extension, which has now happened. In 1978 his predictions included that individual longevity genes would be discovered and that minor genetic alterations could lead to life extension. He also projected that histone activity would be involved, all of which has now been demonstrated, at least in animals. Leary felt that these longevity mechanisms were inate to our bodily systems, and that they would unfold in due course as knowledge of genetics increased. What he didn't know is that the genetic mechanisms of longevity could be turned on with a simple key accessible to anyone (although he probably would have enjoyed the concept). This key to maximum lifespan is called calorie restriction, or CR for short. Clearly CR is the healthiest of possible lifestyles, but a word must be said about eating disorders. Do not starve yourself to death, and if you go past CR50 you are likely to become sick. If you have a propensity towards an eating disorder, it may happen if you don't maintain the goal in your mind, which is good health and life extension. There is mounting evidence that CR can reverse some age-related damage and maintain the body in a vigorous and youthful state. CR is about living far longer than normal people, far healthier, and far happier. It happens.
