As a name for the platforms of artificial reality and potentiality that confer feel and being on me as ego in my very own essentialness, structure indicates structure of immanent goal reality. initially / of phenomenology, while my perspective is that of somebody who's merely beginning, who's instituting phenomenological aid for the 1st time, as a common situation lower than which to pursue constitutional study, the transcendental ego who comes into view is, to make sure, grasped apodictically — yet as having a rather undetermined horizon, a horizon constrained in basic terms through the final requirement that the area and all i do know approximately it shall develop into an insignificant “phenomenon”.
