POTENCIA (potentia) Esencia y potencia son lo mismo, según consta, luego no cabe la distinción aristotélica entre acto y potencia, sino la afirmación… - Benedictus de Spinoza
" "POTENCIA (potentia) Esencia y potencia son lo mismo, según consta, luego no cabe la distinción aristotélica entre acto y potencia, sino la afirmación del ser como una entidad activa y dinámica. Esto significa en Dios que se cumple o realiza su doble potencia absoluta de ser y pensar, a través de la acción de los innumerables modos finitos (E2P7C), los cuales, a su vez, desarrollan en diferente medida (siempre limitada) las aptitudes de su potencia esencial o conatus para afectar y ser afectados, es decir, para interactuar conforme a su naturaleza particular.

About Benedictus de Spinoza
Benedictus de Spinoza (24 November 1632 – 21 February 1677) was a social and metaphysical philosopher known for the elaborate development of his monist philosophy, which has become known as Spinozism. Controversy regarding his ideas led to his excommunication from the Jewish community of his native Amsterdam. He was named Baruch ("blessed" in Hebrew) Spinoza by his synagogue elders and known as Bento de Spinoza or Bento d'Espiñoza, but afterwards used the name Benedictus ("blessed" in Latin) de Spinoza.

Additional quotes by Benedictus de Spinoza
...Leibniz's Theodicy is an intelligent abstract of Christian doctrine, exhibiting what it would be if it were essentially scientific, whereas it is essentially moralistic, so that its inspiration is missed, while its dogmas are harmonized as much as possible. Spinoza does much the same thing for the natural universe. He misplaces nothing, but draws it all in purely intellectual concepts. He is a great master.

Hegel is (unknowingly) an admirable 'theoretician' of ideology insofar as he is a 'theoretician' of Universal Recognition who unfortunately ends up in the ideology of Absolute Knowledge. Feuerbach is an astonishing 'theoretician' of the mirror connexion, who unfortunately ends up in the ideology of the Human Essence. To find the material with which to construct a theory of the guarantee, we must turn to Spinoza.
