Our very consciousness and thinking are organs for the order of nature. All human liability for tragedy and folly grows out of that seed of potential divorce and self-exceptionalism just as wisdom, freedom, goodness, and truth grow out of a healthy congruence. Consciousness serves the interests its organism has been endowed with, but it has a notorious egocentric tendency - its own relatively dysfunctional nature - to set itself in opposition to the comprehensive world of nature. Even every word-choice, every nuance in stylistics, expresses the organism of needs and biases which is human personality: as Blake wrote, As a man is, so he sees. The Greek system of nature is that regime of instinctive purposes, of naturally ingrained needs and ends, called teleology.

All that is said and done, even among purportedly rational humans, serves a natural telos or purpose to every act or phenomenon there is an immanental or self-implicit "why." We know how to read the order of nature when we grasp the full diversity of such natural reasons. The laws of nature apply more obliquely or ingeniously in such a case. That a creature acts "naturally" - intelligible to anyone with the requisite concepts - is axiomatic that it may act apparently unnaturally or contranaturally is baffling, an anomaly that defies the orderly cosmos of nature. Nature is the latent, inward, even cryptic sufficient reason for any creature's being as it is and acting as it does. That Logos, that logic or mode of order, reigns even over the minds and wills of human beings.
Comprehended according to its own intrinsic mode of rationale - how it forms and organizes itself and tends to behave and should be understood - nature makes the specific and coherent kind of sense that the Greeks call physis. It is a system of manifest or intuitively accessible laws, although human beings by reason of their own occlusive natures can make themselves obtuse and inept to grasp its orderliness - even as they nonetheless obey it. It is a far richer principle than anything moderns understand by mechanistic biology or psychology. "Nature" is the peculiar logic of dynamic, organic existence, authorized to take care of itself by executing its own self-interpreted instincts.
