The meanings of verbs


Each sentence, in every language, contains a subject, a verb, a predicate or a complement. Sometimes the verb is implied, while in other cases the predicate or complement is not stated. From the esoteric point of view, the most important and mysterious part of the sentence is represented by the "verb". It is true that it represents an action, but if we go on further we can see unfathomable and undefinable abysses that open up over and beyond the first interpretation.

What doe the verb really mean ? We can note that in every sentence each verb can be transformed into the verb "to be" followed by a predicate, We can therefore see that the verb "to be" puts the subject in relation to the predicate.

The subject, above all if it is a substantia of Aristotle, does not change in the precise moment considered by the verb, but shows itself in the Form proposed by the predicate.

The verb implies, therefore, the action that precedes the manifestation, joining the Potency with the Act of the manifestation. In a certain sense the verb represents a flowing stream.
