Existential communication as the basis for authentic human existence in Karl Jaspers's philosophy
The article analyzes from different aspects the conception of existential communication and its significance from the perspective of Karl Jaspers's existential philosophy. An attempt is made to prove that the need for existential communication is primordial and naturally linked with human existence. On this basis, the definition of existential communication as life communication is formed and analyzed. Ties between existential communication and existential truth are singled out. The conclusion is made that existential communication is unique, individual and inimitable; therefore, it cannot have any objective criteria. This communication is related to religious freedom, love, and existential truth, and its depth reveals the transcendental realm of existence - God. Thus, existential communication is the mystery of human existence, and the authenticity and consummation of life are achieved through it.
