In phenomenology, noesis is an act of consciousness. "Thinking", "loving", "hating", "imagining" are all verbs applying to what minds do. One would never call "loving" a belief, because it is something you do, not something you merely hold to be true.

+In [[phenomenology]], '''noesis''' is an act of [[consciousness]]. "Thinking", "loving", "hating", "imagining" are all [[verb]]s applying to what [[mind]]s do. One would never call "loving" a [[belief]], because it is something you ''do'', not something you merely hold to be true.
-'''Noêsis''' is the concept of the ability to sense or know something immediately without reasoning (see [[Intuition]]). It includes understanding certain knowledge without apparent effort. It is the quick and ready insight seemingly independent of previous experiences or [[empirical]] knowledge. It is the character of a personal intuiting mind (''nous''). It is better understood as a process of [[holistic]] intuition.<ref>[http://www.cs.utk.edu/~mclennan/BA/ETP/III.html#selfcontemplating Noesis and the Self-Contemplating Nous]</ref>
-Although ''Noêsis'' is sometimes translated "intellection," it does not refer to a process of discursive rasoning. '''Noêsis''' is a direct intuitive apprehension of the essence of things. '''Noêsis''' is not bound by time or space. [[Reasoning]] is an activity of the one's [[soul]] and occurs sequentially in time and deals with particulars located in space. The [[Anima mundi (spirit)|World Soul]] occurs at the level of time and space.<ref>[http://www.cs.utk.edu/~mclennan/BA/ETP/II.html#mother Pythagoreanism - The Mother of the Gods]</ref>
-In [[phenomenology]], Noêsis is an act of [[consciousness]]. "Thinking", "loving", "hating", "imagining" are all [[verb]]s applying to what a [[mind]] does. One would never call "loving" a [[belief]], because it is something you ''do'', not something you merely hold to be true.
