The Human, Essential Identity: Direct Experience of the Intangible Significance of Existence through the Immediate Engagement of the Human Essence

Missing from materialistic, Western philosophy is the intrinsic identity and qualitative dimension of existence. The significance of qualities is denied because they do not possess physical representation. They are excluded from our assessment of life through lack of tangible evidence. Qualities are known to exist but their occurrence is not considered existentially pertinent. Yet, every phenomenal appearance possess a qualitative existence as well as material evidence. The qualitative distinction of a phenomenon is of enormous significance because it reveals the authentic identity as opposed to the merely superficial appearance of the physical periphery.
