Phenomenological inquiry uncovers how humans equate mental representation with existence, suggesting that intellectual processes remain fundamentally driven by emotion rather than neutral logic.
A phenomenological and anthropological inquiry into why human beings have come to treat the mind as the primary medium of living. The paper examines the relationship between mind, intellect, emotion, thought, perception, and awareness, arguing that intellect is not an emotionally neutral faculty but an oriented movement within the living mind. It distinguishes between living through the mind and using the mind within living, questioning whether humanity has confused mental representation with existence itself.
