On the Meaning of Action “Contrar y to Reason”
If it belongs to the essence of human reason that the reality of the world as well as of ourselves becomes present and palpable to us only in its light and in no other way; and if, moreover, our reason is not a light that we ignite on our own but is communicated to us, is a participation in that aboriginal light that, as Plato said of the sun, both makes things visible and makes our eyes to see;—then that means, as Aristotle had long ago concluded, that the most decisive characteristic that distinguishes being “in accord with reason” from being “contrary to reason” always depends on whether or not one is directing oneself toward or away from objective reality as well as toward or away from the creative Logos that manifests itself to us in our own power of cognition.
