The article attempts to analyze the “reversal of consciousness” as a moment of “experience”, which is connected with determining the status of object in Hegel’s philosophy. The author aims to demonstrate that attention to this theme helps to clarify the foundations of the evolution of Hegel’s ideas about the nature and composition of the system of philosophy. The analysis of the “reversal of...
Current neuroscientific paradigms primarily rely on emergentism to explain subjective qualitative experience (qualia), positing that consciousness arises organically from complex neural architecture. Despite extensive mapping of neural correlates, the "Hard Problem of Consciousness" remains unresolved, failing to explain how physical matter generates subjective awareness. The Fundamental...
This paper presents a recursive-ontological critique of David Chalmers' hard problem of consciousness, the philosophical zombie argument, and the ontological privilege granted to subjectivity. Centered on the state-update equation S_n = f(S_{n-1}, W_n), it deconstructs the first-person privilege, symmetrically reviews zombie and "philosophical God" arguments, and proposes seven core principles...
Command auditory verbal hallucinations (CAVH) are a subtype of auditory hallucinations perceived as instructing the hearer to perform specific actions, carrying an elevated risk of harm due to potential compliance with harmful behaviours. Despite the risk, the prevalence, clinical associations and content of CAVH in first episode psychosis (FEP) remain largely underexplored, leaving important...
Existentialism and phenomenology, although emerging from different intellectual backgrounds, share certain conceptual and methodological intersections. While it is not historically possible to classify Kierkegaard’s thought under the heading of existential phenomenology, this study examines the intersections between Kierkegaard’s existentialism and Husserl’s phenomenology, aiming to reveal the...
As different as Lisa Guenther (2019, 2021) and Johanna Oksala (2022) may be, they agree that the positing of transcendental structures of meaningful experience leads to oppressive normativity. Their contestation of transcendental structures reflects a trend in recent critical phenomenology that resists phenomenological appeals to transcendental structures in favor of quasi-transcendental ones....

Despite extensive research on the influence of office environments on occupant health, the sensory mechanisms through which workplaces influence psychophysiological stress remain poorly understood, particularly beyond visual and acoustic factors. This pilot study examined how olfactory and tactile qualities of office environments influence psychophysiological stress using a...
The aim of this article is to present an interdisciplinary approach to the relationship between music, rhythm, and embodied cognition, and to outline the role of rhythmic synchronization as a factor regulating the formation of social bonds in the contemporary world, saturated with new technologies. This proposed framework integrates three research perspectives—neuroscientific, phenomenological,...
The article provides a comprehensive philosophical and psychological analysis of transpersonal psychology as an approach to the study of human consciousness, boundary forms of human experience, and the possibilities of personal transformation. The historical prerequisites for the emergence of transpersonal psychology are examined in the context of humanistic psychology, research on altered...
English. This article revises the concept of the "Fourth Turning of the Wheel of Dharma", introduced by the author in an earlier version (March 2026), as a philosophical investigation of how the mind operates in technically mediated environments, and explicitly lowers the status of the claim: from a possible historical fourth turning to a figure of reading and a call to doctrinal work, with no...
