logos

In the sense Heidegger is drawing upon, the term logos has the meaning of "deliberation," "consideration," and "thought." Logos constitutes one of the four "ways of being responsible" in Heidegger's model of causality based on Greek concepts; the silversmith's capacity to bring the chalice to appearance is an example of logos.
