Collaborative discussion among a group of researchers involved in developing these...
This article proposes a foundational reconfiguration of the Philosophy of Information by articulating it as a Phenomenology of Information, understood in its most fundamental sense as a phenomenology of certainty and identity. Based on a theoretical framework centered on the Singularity of Informational Self-Awareness (ISA) (JAUED, 2025) and the Principle of Direct Relation (PRD), the text...
Based on computational functionalism and Hofstadter's hierarchical isomorphism theory, this study demonstrates the functional isomorphism and content differences between human and machine consciousness, revealing the possibility of machines evolving from formal systems to non-formal systems. It puts forward a three-tier ethical conflict framework of "consciousness maintenance−consciousness...

The empirical work was a six-year longitudinal qualitative study, using a practical-theoretical reflection process to examine...

It seeks to interpret how Krishna’s enumeration of divine manifestations provides a non-utilitarian ethical foundation for ecological...

It argues that Buddhist thinkers conceived cognition as a stratified process emerging from the dynamic interaction between sensory and effectual domains, culminating in the semiotic determinations of...

As a result, character formation, moral awareness, and the cultivation of meaningful life values tend to be insufficiently internalized. Within the Hindu Kaharingan community,...
