REASON OR REVELATION ; WHICH? THE KEY NOTE. "It is lawful for man to search after truth in any realm. Reason was given him that he might investigate all things, to the end that truth should appear. It is superstition that hinders man from looking into any manifestation of nature or human nature, and having seen its effects, learning if possible its cause. The mistakes that many make is in placing reason and science above intuition and revelation. There can be no exercise of reason unless the spirit of man is inspired, or intuitively drawn into reasoning, and there can be no knowledge of science save through a direct revelation of that science to some person. Cold, calm, uninspired reason is the marble statue compared with the living body : in one you see all there is ; in the other are possibilities undreamed of by those who are guided by reason alone. "Reason is bounded and circumscribed by the brain of man; intuition, which is the reasoning faculty of the spirit, is boundless in its possibilities; hence when man attempts to act from reason alone, he is acting independent of and disconnected from all divine things, and his teachings and life have little or no effect ; since, if there be no spiritual fountain from which reason draws a supply, it can have no enduring influence on men or things. It was my practice to use my reason on all occasions, and to pray that my reason might be enlightened and inspired by divine wisdom, and I often found that reason was left far in the background, and intuition led me into realms of revealed thought which reason alone could never have reached." - William Ellery Channing (spirit-voiced).

Excerpt from Reason Vs; Revelation: From the Fulcrum of the Spirit Philosophy; A Reply to Robert G. Ingersoll "It is lawful for man to search after truth in any realm. Reason was given him that he might investigate all things, to the end that truth should appear. It is superstition that hinders man from looking into any manifestation of nature or human nature, and having seen its effects, learning if possible its cause. The mistakes that many make is in placing reason and science above intuition and revelation. There can be no exercise of reason unless the spirit of man is inspired, or intuitively drawn into reasoning, and there can be no knowledge of science save through a direct revelation of that science to some person. Cold, calm, uninspired reason is the marble statue compared with the living body: in one you see all there is; in the other are possibilities undreamed of by those who are guided by reason alone.

Philosophy and theology have long harboured contradictory views on spiritual practice. While philosophy advocates the therapeutic benefits of daily meditation, the theology of grace promotes an ideal of happiness bestowed with little effort. As such, the historical juxtaposition of effort and grace grounding modern spiritual exercise can be seen as the essential tension between the secular and sacred. In Effort and Grace, Simone Kotva explores an exciting new theory of spiritual endeavour from the tradition of French spiritualist philosophy. Spiritual exercise has largely been studied in relation to ancient philosophy and the Ignatian tradition, yet Kotva's new engagement with its more recent forms has alerted her to an understanding of contemplative practice as rife with critical potential. Here, she offers an interdisciplinary text tracing the narrative of spiritual exertion through the work of seminal French thinkers such as Maine de Biran, Félix Ravaisson, Henri Bergson, Alain (Émile Chartier), Simone Weil and Gilles Deleuze. Her findings allow both secular philosophers and theologians to understand how the spiritual life can participate in the contemporary philosophical conversation.

The reputation and influence of Emmanuel Levinas (1906–96) has grown powerfully. Well known in France in his lifetime, he has since his death become widely regarded as a major European moral philosopher profoundly shaped by his Jewish background. A pupil of Husserl and Heidegger, Levinas pioneered new forms of exegesis with his post-modern readings of the Talmud, and as an ethicist brought together religious and non-religious, Jewish and non-Jewish traditions of contemporary thought. Richard A. Cohen has written a book which uses Levinas' work as its base but goes on to explore broader questions of interpretation in the context of text-based ethical thinking. Levinas' reorientation of philosophy is considered in critical contrast to alternative contemporary approaches such as those found in modern science, psychology, Nietzsche, Freud, Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, Derrida and Ricoeur. Cohen explores a manner of philosophizing which he terms 'ethical exegesis'.

This second edition concentrates on various philosophers and theologians from the medieval Arabian, Jewish, and Christian worlds. It principally centers on authors such as Abumashar, Saadiah Gaon and Alcuin from the eighth century and follows the intellectual developments of the three traditions up to the fifteenth-century Ibn Khaldun, Hasdai Crescas and Marsilio Ficino. The spiritual journeys presuppose earlier human sources, such as the philosophy of Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, and Porphyry and various Stoic authors, the revealed teachings of the Jewish Law, the Koran and the Christian Bible. The Fathers of the Church, such as St. Augustine and Gregory the Great, provided examples of theology in their attempts to reconcile revealed truth and man’s philosophical knowledge and deserve attention as pre-medieval contributors to medieval intellectual life. Avicenna and Averroes, Maimonides and Gersonides, St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Bonaventure, stand out in the three traditions as special medieval contributors who deserve more attention. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Medieval Philosophy and Theology contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on important persons, events, and concepts that shaped medieval philosophy and theology. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about medieval philosophy and theology.
