To the Jaspers’s interpretation of transcendence
Journal Title: ИДЕИ. ФИЛОСОФСКО СПИСАНИЕ - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
One of the tasks of philosophy is also the search for the meaning of the existence of man. A great deal of effort is made in this search by existentialism. In its approach, existentialism does not follow the truth that is objectively valid but pursues the truth that is important to the individual, to the subject. Searching for truth in existentialism has an intimate character, man struggles, squanders, seeks, and gradually creates his own, subjective image of the world, which has a personal sense for him. In Jasper’s mind, the sense of man’s existence is credited in contact with the transcendent. The term transcendent is the transformation of the qualities of God and his reinterpretation in the language of philosophy. The result of confronting the transcendent is the authentic being of an individual that is filled with meaning.
