Metaphysical birth and metaphysical death in a boundary situation

The given article puts some problems before the reader at once: how the metaphysical birth occurs and what the metaphysicalbirth of the person consists in? What the essence of metaphysical death is? How the boundary situation becomes the basis for abirth of the person in life or birth in death? The author answers them in detail. The essence of human existence with the greatest completenessreveals in boundary situations. They are capable of revealing the hidden senses of life to the person, thereby making personalthinking active, able to lead to the opening of original and non-original existence. The narration begins with the definition of the categoryof metaphysics. Various interpretations of the given concept are provided, and the point of view the author follows is explained.Further subjective and objective value sets of the person are designated and defined. Subjective values are cogitative constructions,which correspond to the acts of an individual choice and are generated by its means. Objective values are cogitative constructions, existingirrespective of consciousness of a separate person, implanted in spiritual culture: in religion, ethics. Subjective values are situational,objective ones are invariable. Due to considering the objective values the person surpasses the limits of ones own sensual experienceand gets into the metaphysical layer of knowledge, which is found in many spheres of human spirituality. In this sense the metaphysicalbirth of the person can be defined as internal, i.e. taken place in the person, by means of reason, unlike the external, physical one. Themetaphysical birth is a transformation of human life, transition from the lowest life to the higher, which the person makes in a boundarysituation. The metaphysical death, unlike the metaphysical birth, consists, on the contrary, in transition from the higher to the lowest life.And if the person born in life feels freedom space in which the person revives, begins to see clearly; the birth in death is shown in closenessto all the new, in unwillingness to learn the world around and let it in. One integrity leads to formation of values of the live personwho aspires to objective perception of the world, another one - to the formation of the dead person who becomes isolated in subjectivelimited perception. One of the leading parts in the formation of a new integrity of the person belongs to the phenomenon of imprinting.Under its influence the person forms values which result in his/her metaphysical birth or death. The metaphysical birth or death is aprocess, consisting of three stages: ontological, gnoseological and ethical, which are in detail stated in the article. Summing up theaforesaid, we will fix that each person faces different forms of life - the lowest and the higher, original and false; however, a boundarysituation and value orientation of the person will define where its quantum leap will be.
