What is the logos, In the stoic sense,I think I have a gist of it. The logos is the rationale and reason behind the universe and within you, it is.. God, providence? Can I get a concrete answer, I tried google but it didn't really come to me.
Thanks

Logos is the logic/reason underpinning all existence
ofc if god is to exist, he must exist within logos or logos must be an expression of his will. for things are as they are and cannot be as they are not, therefore there is reason/meaning to things as they are which is why they are not what they are not.

Depends on who you're reading.
I like Heidegger's best.
Logos from Legein: to gather.
Logos doesn't equal logic, but rather logic is derived from logos, which is the gathering.

Jesus Christ is the Logos in the Christian tradition.
I like how Maximus the Confessor fleshed out that aspect of Christian theology in his writings about the uncreated logoi as well.
Jesus Christ, the Logos, held in himself the logoi, "For we believe that a logos of angels preceded their creation, a logos preceded the creation of each of the beings and powers that fill the upper world, a logos preceded the creation of human beings, a logos preceded the creation of everything that proceeded from God, and so on (...)"
"Through his Logos there came to be both being and continuing to be, for from him the things that were made came to be in a certain way and for a certain reason, and by continuing to be and moving, they participate in God."
That's from St. Maximus's Ambiguum 7
This blog has the relevant section. I couldn't find the whole thing online.
