Human, the person who asks questions.

 Human, the person who asks questions.


​

Humans are creatures who pose questions to the world.


The question of 'why is an expression of the will of humans to live with their own subjectivity rather than just following what others tell them to do. Only then can human beings become individual self as irreplaceable beings in the world.


He doesn't become the only one because he has unique answers to the world and himself. From the moment he asks questions and bluntly declares that he will not compromise with the world, he can become the second person in the world.


“Knowing and truth cannot be accepted as complete, but must come from the individual himself.”


- Pierre Addo


He must ask questions through learning, and he must become conscious of himself through questions.


Even if you are at odds with the whole world, you need to be in harmony with yourself.


​


The emergence of modern society required being a 'strong individual' with unique answers. In other words, it is the task of the modern subject to become an individual who is at odds with the world. In addition, the virtue that an individual should pursue is sincerity. Authenticity based on 'being true to yourself is the moral thread of self-actualization. This refers to an attitude that makes realizing the true self the greatest virtue of life.


To be authentic means to have a deeper and more mature inner world.


This is because the inside of a man is a space where he asks questions about himself and pursues his authenticity while at odds with the world. Without an inner self, we are not subjects.


Being a subject does not happen naturally or automatically, but is realized only through some active activity of mine because the activity that makes me a subject is reflective self-consciousness.


You will have to express your self-will through questions and stand upright as your individual self.


Declaring not to compromise with the world, it is the person who harbours the question of who can endure the discomfort in order to stand as a strong individual...

Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity.

 Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity. ​ ​ ​ Each age has its own disease. For example, there is an era that can be said to be bacterial. But this era came to an end, at least with the invention of antibiotics. The beginning of the 21st century can be defined pathologically as neither bacterial nor viral, but rather neurotic. It is an infarct disease, not a contagious disease, and it is a disease caused by an excess of positivity, not the negativity of the immunological other. Therefore, it is by no means governed by immunological techniques aimed at defeating the negativity of others. ​ The last century was the immunological age. In other words, it was an era in which clear boundaries were drawn between the inside and the outside, friends and enemies, and me and others. The essence of immunological behavior is aggression and defense. There is a certain blindness in the essence of these immunological devices that have taken over the entire society from the...

The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana.

 The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana. "The observer is the source of all things. Without the observer nothing exists. The observer is the basis of all knowledge. The basis of all claims concerning man himself, the world and the universe. The extinction of the observer is the It will mean an end and annihilation, for there will be no one left to perceive, speak, describe or explain." - <<From Being to Doing>> Maturana ​ Someone is watching something. Marurana says this is a fundamental starting point. The person develops a world of his own as he sees it as an observer. If the other person exists as an observer, then the other person's world exists, and as an observer, the world that that person sees also exists. ​ The philosopher Nietzsche, before Maturana, described this as perspectives. If the term perspectives is difficult to describe, you can borrow the term from Maturana and call it 'observers. ​ ​ Snakes are creatures of a different world from human...

active reading.

 active reading. We know more about the world than we used to, and you may still think that knowledge is essential to understanding something. But knowledge is no longer as essential for understanding as one-sided thinking. You don't have to 'know' everything about something to 'understand' it. Too much information can actually be an obstacle to understanding something. The present age is overflowing with facts that prevent us from understanding the correct appearance of things due to a lot of information. ​ One of the most active projects of some of the best intellectuals today is to unite views from an intellectual standpoint. Through the Internet, television, radio, and magazines, people are provided with well-organized resources, from clever persuasion to carefully curated information and statistics, to make 'decisions' with little effort. But with effective packaging, viewers, listeners, and readers are sometimes unable to make their own decisions. As i...
