FERNANDES, Marcos Aurélio. Consciousness, living experience and life: a phenomenological reflection. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.1, pp. 29-41. ISSN 1809-6867.

The article proposes a course of phenomenological reflection, which focuses on the phenomenon of consciousness. Analyzing the structure of intentional experience, which constitutes the essential feature of consciousness, the thinking goes back to the original phenomenal region commonly called “life”. Through an analysis of intentional experience a simple, basic and prime perception, we come to understand the character of mundanity of life. The world is always the world of life and life is always life in a world. The experience happens as life happens, it happens worldwide. Giving up the self can not be understood unless its roots in the place of life and, specifically, on his being in the world.

Palabras clave : Consciousness; Living experience; Life; Phenomenology.
