Dissolution into the Seminal Reason of the Universe

Notes

1. §4.14.1Ἐνυπέστης — Second-person singular aorist of ἐνυφίστημι (to exist in, to come to subsist in). It implies that the individual came to have a distinct existence 'as a part' (μέρος) within the larger whole of the universe.
2. §4.14.1τῷ γεννήσαντι — Dative case of the substantiated aorist participle of γεννάω, functioning as the object of the compound verb ἐναφανισθήσῃ (with the prefix ἐν- taking the dative to indicate that into which one vanishes). It refers to the generative whole that brought the individual into being.
3. §4.14.1τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ τὸν σπερματικὸν — The pronoun αὐτοῦ refers back to τῷ γεννήσαντι (that which produced you). The 'seminal reason' (λόγος σπερματικός) is the active Stoic cosmological principle that generates things and eventually receives them back.
