Cliff Jones Jr.Looking at early Christianity, there was God, the Word, and Life (see John 1:1-4). In Gnostic terms, you might label this triad the Monad, the Logos, and Sophia. There's just something so satisfying about a trinity, much like a trilogy.Personally, I like the formulation of Love, Light, and Life, which aligns with assertions that God is Love and Christ is the Light of the world. Here "light" is a metaphor for revelation, the thing that allows understanding, language, logic, etc. In other words, the Logos.So what do you think? Aren't triads a bit more fun than dyads? Do you have any other examples to add of systems where triads are useful?(3/3)<a href="https://sfba.social/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#philosophy</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/religion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#religion</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Christianity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Christianity</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Gnostic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gnostic</a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Gnosticism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Gnosticism</a>
