Being and Existence

by Maria Odete Madeira

In Plato, as in Parmenides, the Being is not addressed, from the plane of the Existence, but from the plane of the Truth.

The Being is the very act of Being, immediately realized within the Being, itself.
To Be the Being is the realization of the Unity in its irreducible absolute act of Being.

When, within a Platonic position, one states that the Beauty, the Good or the Truth ARE, one is stating that the Beauty, the Good, or the Truth are in themselves as such: Beauty, Good and Truth.

This in itself means a pure functionality of the Being, as condition of itself, depurated of any constitutive relational element, but that, because of that, it can, itself, constitute itself necessarily as condition of possibility of the existence of the entities in the relative rotative relational positions of the multiple and divergent modes of the being there (dasein).
