Logotherapy was developed by a neurologist and psychiatrist. Logotherapy is founded upon the belief that it is the striving to find a meaning in one's life

>Cheerfully Chloe laughed. "Have a little levity" was her stylish grace

The notion of Logotherapy was created with the Greek word logos ("meaning")

Information as a linguistic object is a rather undiscerning metaphor. Metaphor is for most people a device of the poetic imagination, yet it is much more pervasive in everyday life than most people assume. Our ordinary conceptual system in terms of which we both think and act is fundamentally metaphorical in nature

Greek, eudaimonia. This term was employed by Plato and Aristotle to denote true and complete happiness. Its derivation from eu or well, and daimôn, a divinity, a good genius, good fortune, indicates its true signification, as the condition favored by the good genius

Plotinus used a trinity concept that consisted of "The One", the "Spirit" and "Soul".

For Plotinus, the relationship between the three elements of his trinity is conducted by the outpouring of Logos from the higher principle, and eros (loving) upward from the lower principle

What matter is to the material world, meaning is to the intellectual world.

Those that say that there is no such thing as meaning are either saying that there is no intellectual world or that it is a complete void, like a universe empty of matter.

Those that say humans invent meaning believe that the intellectual world is a human fabrication and has no independent existence of its own.

The ancient Platonic idea is that the intellectual world comes from the same divine source as the material world, and that the Intellectual Principle, the Divine Mind, is where all intellectual content / meaning is grounded, and wisdom for us means the return of our intellect back to this Intellectual Principle / Divine Mind from whence our intellect emanated.

[Anonymous No.6677883]

Also, this Intellectual Principle / Divine Mind can also be called the supreme Logos, as someone above pointed to.
