Everyday, common sense and problem of consciousness

Appeal to the theme of common sense, the question of the place and role of his intuitions inphilosophical and scientific knowledge is due:1) its actualization in modern philosophy, conceptual approaches of which, for solving the problemof consciousness in some cases conflict with the intuitions of common sense;2) failure in addressing the everyday context at the level of artificial intelligence;3) the advent of a new promising material, applying to the conceptual solution to the problem ofconsciousness, based on the truths of common sense;4) the necessity and possibility of holding its own investigation in connection with the developmentof hypotheses about the mythical as an inherent property of consciousness of a human.Purpose of the article - explanation of the adequacy of the truths of common sense in solving theproblem of consciousness. The objects of philosophical analysis are routine and sense of truth in thesystem of scientific knowledge. Truths of common sense are timeless principles, which are out of thecontext, of common sense. As a basic methodological installations, the following provisions: everydayis the basis of philosophy and science; ordinary notions of truth and common sense are a necessary partof scientific knowledge. In philosophy everyday is understood as: reality; everyday consciousness;sphere of birth of the truths of common sense; natural or ordinary language. There are substantial andfunctional interpretations of everyday. The first method of interpretation allows us to see the world ofeveryday as a primary and autonomous reality, as the foundation of everything. Functional approachreveals the destiny of everyday life: to establish the relationship between reality and knowledge of herknowledge and language, language and reality. Establishing these relationships, everyday provides awhole system "a reality and consciousness." From a phenomenological point of view of everyday is itsmyths, its history. A man, who doesnt introspect, in search of meaning gives rise to myths and mythicjustification. Everyday is a kind of whole mythical space. Its truth is the rational core of everydayknowledge, which does not depend on the context. Specificity of the truths of common sense - thecriteria of their truth: people do not know how they knows the truth of judgments of common sense,but it is their belief in truth is the witness of their truth. This situation is typical for a myth-makingconsciousness: no sufficient justification in the fact that this is so, but the belief is there. The role of thetruths of common sense in the concepts of solving the problem of consciousness involves response to anumber of other questions: the truth of common sense destroy the myths of everyday consciousness, orserve them a rational basis? If the participation of the truths of common sense in scientific knowledgeis inevitable, what the consequences will be?
