The philosophy of Plotinus marks a pivotal shift from Greek intellectualism to Western metaphysics of the will, focusing on the soul's freedom rather than civic or political concerns. He posits that true essence lies within the inner man, emphasizing that without the soul's freedom, actions lack significance. Additionally, the exploration of beauty reveals the soul's potential, showcasing its triple dimensionality through various forms of beauty, both artistic and intellectual. These themes of freedom and beauty are central to the text's examination of Plotinus' ideas.

Focusing on philosophy as an art of living, this book engages readers with a variety of thought-provoking questions and problems relevant to everyday life. It is designed for a broad audience, offering brief sections that can be combined in multiple ways, encouraging personal exploration and reflection. Emphasizing unresolved issues, it invites readers to engage in open dialogue and challenges them to embrace the pleasure of thinking. The work echoes Kant's call to "Dare to think," promoting a journey of intellectual investment and self-discovery.
