      Yes, that and the fact that "Dasein" is not pronounced as "design" or "dissign" but rather as "dah-zign." It is not an English word, but a German one that means "being there."

    Thank you! You have basically saved my life, haha! I have read Husserl and Heidegger before, a long time ago, but I always struggled to understand phenomenology. I was reading an article in which the article said "I will treat this through the lens of phenomenology" and my immediate thought was "oh no..." Happy I stopped to come here and look for some quick and clear explanation, such as yours!

    This is true. The reality i see is not the same reality you see. That's why people have different tastes, for example. They even see one and the same person differently. For example, have you heard anyone saying you look like this or that when you clearly see in the mirror that you don't? Or that someone resembles some celebrity and you think- not even close. It's true, individual reality is different depending on person, which rises the question - what is real reality? And how can one experience it.

    "... stark distinctions between the outer 'real' reality, and the individual experience of reality." See, there's an issue right there: Scientific Materialism (the idea that the matter & energy around our bodies is the only truly 'real' thing) is so entrenched in our modern psyches that we can only regard other approaches (e.g. Phenomenology) as a curiosity that's become unhinged from common sense. Yet in historical terms, Materialism is a pretty new idea. But in our times, it _owns_ us. :^{
    I do really appreciate this brief video overview, though!

  • @mitchellkato1436
    @mitchellkato1436 6 років тому +8

    First part is Husserl and his pursuit of essence; the thing to itself. Now the tricky part is how to get the subjective from objective. Intentionality perhaps helps. And we assume consciousness. But this consciousness is not the objective consciousness that we automatically leaps. I think I am not wrong in saying this is a first person subjective perspective.
    Then second part is Heidegger's thoughts. Heidegger reverses the thought of investigation. Natural attitude comes before the scientific project of pursuing essence (much like Sartre who says existence preceeds essence, then Derrida reverses the logic of metaphysics). Heidegger's subject is the Dasein (therefore Heidegger's interest is again, is the natural attitude, which as Dasein lives it and contemplate Being).
    The video was good.

    • @ivancannon3885
      @ivancannon3885 6 років тому

      Still too obscure.
      “Natural attitude” is physiologically based.
      We are the sum total of our past. Phenomena is the electro-magnetic energy stuff that exists independently of human minds or bodies.
      As organisms, we have sensory and perceptive capacities based on our biology. We know that the ranges of our senses are limited.
      Reality is always changing and our bodies are always changing too. It’s the old idea of THINGS that gets people confused. We needs “things” Psychologically for practical daily living and for communication, but that is all subjective experience.
      Subjective Reality is an oxymoron. Our subjective experience of sights and sounds happens in our heads after being filtered through us.

    • @mitchellkato1436
      @mitchellkato1436 6 років тому +4

      Your comment doesn't seem to engage on my comment much. My comment was about the reversal of phenomenology and existential phenomenology. But I would like to understand your take on all this. When you bring up "psychology, physiology, biology, energy stuff", I cringe. These are all empirical. I am not saying empirical are not true, but how do they belong to phenomenology? I cannot stop thinking there is a step before empirical that is phenomeonlogy. Psychologism seem to be an issue that phenomenology takes up. But it seems to be before psychologism. Phenomenology is before everything a method of investigation. On the other hand, empirical science is the result.
      Thanks for the thought tho.

  • @lyrical9582
    @lyrical9582 3 роки тому +1

    Reality can be grasped through 'structures of Consciousness', through a process of intentionality and bracketing.

    I genuinely do not get the idea why philosophy and associated discourse have to rely on heavy terms. this approach is the reason why philosophy is not accessible to the masses. the irony is that Philosophy is exactly the key to better understanding of self and our environment. it is the answer to a ton of problems we as an individual and as a society face today.
    But no, instead of recognizing it and attempting to make philosophy easy to understand and access, you just had to go and make it complicated with complicated terms and narratives.

    Btw, if you rhyme 'Husserl' with `PUSS-cell (puss like pussycat), you'll be close to the right pronunciation. (Inserting an English 'r' doesn't help, so just leave it out.)
