 Becoming
Aware of the Logos
The Way of St. John the Evangelist
Georg Kuhlewind
Becoming Aware of
the Logos by Georg Kuhlewind is the fruit of many years of
study and meditation on the fundamentals of existence. It places the reader in the world of living thinking
and cognitive love. It teaches the way of grace and truth in a
radical, original manner. For the Logos, although it is the ground
of any true logic, is beyond ordinary dialectic. The author does not
approach his subject conventionally, but penetrates and communicates
it through the unfolding of central themes such as: the Logos as
speech and relationship; the Logos in the beginning; the light in
the darkness; the speaker; life; spirit; grace and truth.
"To
become aware of the Logos is to become aware of the Logos in
oneself.. ." "The world speaks. Before all else, it utters speaking
itself. Or does speaking utter the world ... ?" So begin the first
two chapters of this inspired, existential meditation on the
contemporary meaning of the message of St. John: In the
Beginning was the Word . . . "
Through
this Word—Logos—all things came into being. In it was life, the light
of human beings. It shone in the darkness, and the darkness received
it not. It was in the world, and the world did not know it. It
entered individual beings and, to those who received it, it gave the
ability to become children of God. Its radiance was seen, full of
Grace and Truth.
"A single human being has no reality; the existence of 'man' begins
with the word that floats between I and you. The Logos connects
human beings through the Word; all else is temptation or a temporary
connection."
