MEANING
of TELEOS
Teleos
is a Greek word
pointing to the invisible plan that gives order to Cosmos. Teleos
is the overall design or purpose
directing nature toward her fulfillment. Teleos
is the pattern hidden within each human being that guides the individualizing
process. Teleos is
the archetypal paradigm that resonates within us as human beings,
prompting us to aspire to realize our full potential.
Since Teleos
is imprinted in each of
us, we turn within for guidance and direction and then move outward
to give expression to our unique and essential participation in
the whole.
