Philosophy.
A philosophical and religious system based on Platonic ideas and originating with Plotinus in the 3rd cent. a.d., which emphasizes the distinction between an eternal world accessible to thought and the changing physical world accessible to the senses, and combines this with a mystical belief in the possibility of union with a supreme being from which all reality is held to derive.Neoplatonism combined ideas from Plato, Aristotle, Pythagoras, and the Stoics with Asian mysticism. It predominated in pagan Europe until the 6th early century, and was a major influence on early Christian writers, on later medieval and Renaissance thought, and on Islamic philosophy.
