ABSTRACT This research aims to reveal a meaning that is built up in a phenomenon when someone is in- volved in the adventure of him/herself in the world of dance. The problem concerns on the processes of human life transformation  in a variety of activities that he has experienced along his journey in having a profession as a dance artist (dancer). This question is to know about what extent the con- sistency of being a dancer can contribute to a culture of life and the values of life which inherently exist in a person’s life in order to build awareness of his identity as a dancer. To solve this problem, the theory of cultural ideology approach is applied. Data analysis was performed with the dynamics in the life of a dancer which is generally supported by the author’s personal experience in dancing activity. Through a study of dancing activity and awareness of the dynamics of life experienced, understood, and internalized by a dancer then revealed an intensity of meaning that indicate the emergence of culture. The intensity of the culture was hammered into a potential or force inherent in the human person (the dancer). This gives meaning to the presence of cultural life values that can be identified as human existence itself. Keywords: intensity of culture, the world of dance, self-existence    ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap pemaknaan budaya yang terbangun dalam suatu fenomena ketika seseorang larut dalam petualangan dirinya dalam dunia kepenarian. Permasalahannya menyangkut proses kehidupan manusia yang menjelma ke dalam ber- bagai aktivitas yang dilampauinya sepanjang ia menekuni profesinya sebagai seniman tari (penari). Hal yang menjadi pertanyaan adalah sejauh mana konsistensi petualangan dunia kepenarian tersebut dapat memberikan kontribusi bagi nilai-nilai kehidupan membudaya, khususnya nilai-nilai yang melekat pada kehidupan pribadi manusia dalam rangka mem- bangun kesadaran atas jati dirinya sebagai seorang penari. Untuk memecahkan permasa- lahan tersebut digunakan pendekatan budaya dengan mengaplikasikan teori ideologi de- ngan perolehan data yang kemudian dicermati melalui analisis terhadap proses kehidupan penari pada umumnya serta didukung dengan pengalaman pribadi penulis yang sampai saat ini aktif berkecimpung selaku penari.  Melalui suatu kajian  terhadap aktivitas dalam kepenarian serta kesadaran terhadap dinamika kehidupan yang dialami, dipahami, dan dihayati oleh seorang penari maka terungkap suatu pemaknaan yang mengindikasikan munculnya intensitas budaya. Intensitas budaya tersebut terpatri menjadi sebuah potensi atau kekuatan yang melekat pada pribadi manusia (penari). Hal ini memberikan arti pada kehadiran suatu nilai yang dapat diidentifikasi sebagai eksistensi diri manusia. Kata kunci: intensitas budaya, dunia kepenarian, eksistensi diri

Rather than being of little practical importance, the metaphysical underpinnings of a given horizon determine the character of its existential problematic. With the breakdown of classical metaphysics concomitant with the modern turn to the subjective, the existential problematic of finitude as ultimate horizon arose. According to this subjective turn, the human person can no longer engage the world as though it were in itself constituted by transcendently grounded meaning and value. Standing within this genealogical lineage, Martin Heidegger undertook a phenomenological investigation into the existential constitution of the human person which defines authenticity in terms of finitude. For the early Heidegger, human life is essentially ‘guilty’. This guilt, however, is not the traditional cognizance of one’s sinfulness, but the foundational Nichtigkeit (‘nullity’) of life and its attendant possibilities in the light of the ultimate finality of death. Authenticity, then, consists of a resolute working out of one’s life in the face of such inevitable finality. For the later Heidegger, the finite horizon of a particular epochal disclosure gifts Being to thought and determines it thereby. Authenticity in this case consists of giving oneself over to be appropriated by an event of Being. In contrast, Lonergan understands authenticity as being true to that primordial love which beckons us to intellectual probity and responsibility in working out life’s possibilities. This essay will illustrate how Lonergan’s analysis of the intentional structure of human conscious operations stands as a corrective to Heidegger’s early existential analysis of human being-in-the-world and later thought about Being. While Lonergan defines authenticity as loving openness to transcendent Being, Heidegger, because of his forgetfulness of the subject in her conscious operations, does not allow for a transcendence which stands beyond any finite horizon.

The purpose of the article is to outline the problem of widely understood conflicts in human life from the perspective of existential philosophy. Without questioning the importance of psychological research on complex mechanisms underlying conflicts, the author points to the issue of the problematic nature of human existence, the category of freedom, the problem of the authenticity of being and the sense of meaning. In the second part of the paper, the essence of educational process in the context of experiencing difficulties and conflicting situations by human beings has been introduced. The necessity of taking into account the problem of being oneself and constituting a human being in relation to himself, the world and others has been presented.

This chapter introduces five central concepts of existential philosophy in order to deduce ethical principles for psychotherapy: phenomenology, authenticity, paradoxes, isolation, and freedom vs. destiny. Phenomenological perspectives are useful as a guideline for how to encounter and understand patients in terms of individuality and uniqueness. Existential communication as a means to search and face the truth of one’s existence is considered as a valid basis for an authentic life. Paradoxes that cannot be solved are characteristic for human existence and should be dealt with to turn resignation into active choices. Isolation is one of the “existentials” characterizing human life between two paradox poles: On the one hand we are deeply in need of relationships to other human beings; on the other hand we are thrown into the world alone and will always stay like this, no matter how close we get to another person. Further, addressing freedom and destiny as two extremes of one dimension can serve as a basis for orientation in life and also for dealing with the separation between responsibility and guilt.

The practice of contemporary medicine has been tremendously influenced by western ideas and it is assumed by many that autonomy is a universal value of human existence. In the World Health Report 2000, the World Health Organization (WHO) considered autonomy a “universal” value of human life against which every health system in the world should be judged. Further in Western bioethics, patient autonomy and self -determination prevails in all sectors of social and personal life, a concept unacceptable to some cultures. In principle, there are challenges to the universal validity of autonomy, individualism and secularism, as most non-Western cultures are proud of their communal relations and spiritualistic ethos and, thereby imposing Western beliefs and practices as aforementioned can have deleterious consequences. Religion lies at the heart of most cultures which influences the practice patterns of medical professionals in both visible and unconscious ways. However, religion is mostly viewed by scientists as mystical and without scientific proof. Herein lies the dilemma, whether medical professionals should respect the cultural and religious beliefs of their patients? In this paper we aim to discuss some of the limitations of patient's autonomy by comparing the process of reasoning in western medical ethics and Islamic medical ethics, in order to examine the possibility and desirability of arriving at a single, unitary and universally acceptable notion of medical ethics. We propose a more flexible viewpoint that accommodates different cultural and religious values in interpreting autonomy and applying it in an increasingly multilingual and multicultural, contemporaneous society in order to provide the highest level of care possible.

Education is a very complex activity. Almost all dimensions of human life are seen in the educational process, either directly or indirectly. Under no circumstances can humans resist the effects of implementing education. Education is also a process in which it finds transformation both within oneself and in the community. Therefore, the correct educational process is to free a person from various confines, intimidation and exploitation. This is a portrait of the world of education which is increasingly concerning, even disturbing many people. This situation implies that the dehumanization of school education becomes something that cannot be separated from life, education seems to be the ghost of society. The dehumanization of education, to borrow Paulo Freire's term, is education that oppresses, curbs, and shackles the subject of learning, both the learner and the teacher himself. The context of the research in this scientific work is to discuss the principle of freedom of learning of Imam Al-Ghazali and how the principle of the system among Ki Hajar Dewanatara's perspective. This research is a library research (Library Research), by discussing the principle of freedom of learning by Imam Al-Ghazali and how the principle of the system among Ki Hajar Dewanatara's perspective. Data collection was carried out with yellow books and books, journals, theses, and other scientific works related to the above discussion. Data analysis is carried out by discussing content (content analysis) which is sometimes found in books and books. Check the validity of the data is done with Credibility (Credibilty). The results of this study indicate that: The basic principle of Imam Al-Ghazali's freedom of learning can be interpreted as a conscious effort that leads to the creation of outer and inner behavior to do good and stay away from evil, to have a complete personality both to himself or to others. And also in the principle of the Among Ki Hajar Dewantara system in the implementation of learning at Ki Hajar Dewantara's school, using the "Among System". In the Among System, every teacher (pamong) as a leader in the educational process is required to behave: Ing Ngarsa Sun Tuladha, Ing Madya Mangun Kasra, Tut Wuri Handhayani.

How does Sylvia Wynter’s theory of the human depart from Western bio-centric and teleological accounts of the human? To grapple with this question I clarify five key concepts in her theory: the Third Emergence, auto- and socio-poiesis, the autopoietic overturn, the human as hybrid, and sociogenesis. I draw on parts of Wynter’s oeuvre, texts she works with and my conversations with Anthony Bogues. Wynter invents a Third Emergence of the world to mark the advent of the human as a hybrid being. She challenges Western conceptions that reduce the human to biological properties. In opposition to Western teleology, her counter-cartography of a history of human life offers a relational conception of human existence which pivots around Frantz Fanon’s theory of sociogeny. She draws on Aimé Césaire’s call for a conception of the human made to the measure of the world, not to the measure of ‘Man’. This makes Wynter’s theory counter-, not post-humanist.

In this article, the author examines the relationship between power, time, and human reality. Using a novel by the Bosnian writer Meša Selimović as a case study, the author tests two metaphysical claims: power submits to power only, and the passage of time empties the significance of each and every human activity. The author finds that Selimović’s novel confirms both. The conclusion is profoundly pessimistic. The lives of human beings are doubly unhappy: they are spent in protracted struggles for resources and recognition that yield power, and also even the accomplishments of the victorious in these struggles will be erased by the passage of time. However, the understanding of the second claim might retroactively ameliorate the conditions of human life. Yet as evidenced by Selimović’s novel, in the world dominated by power, this does not happen. The case of Šehaga Sočo shows that even the one whose personal experience convinced him of the meaninglessness of it all is unable to break out of the cycle of rivalry and revenge. At his deathbed, he orders the death of his rivals, though he knows that to him dying, it makes no difference whether they live or die. Why not opt for forgiveness? Because, as Selimović emphasizes, power’s insistence on self-perpetuation is illogical, and it is logic that tells us not to engage in meaningless tasks. In other words, human reason is powerless to provide us with a more tolerant world.

The article deals with the ontological aspects of the consolidation of social being. As a fundamental reproduction mechanism, there is a phenomenon of meaning. The meaning produces, transmits the practice of connectivity and the unity of co-existence both at the individual and social levels. It is a connection, involvement that continues in the nature, quality, stability of human relations with the outside world. This connection gives the status of reality, the truth of human existence. In its ontological significance, reality as materiality, conformity, is only in experience. Thereby it is revealed that the social and individual being reality is in the space of experience that a human acquires in social interaction. «Significance of experience» forms a connection with reality, which acts as an ontological basis of meaning and grows out of its metaphysical nature. Thus, it fills the meaning itself, makes a true, real human being. The meaning connects, transforms and gives perspective to social relations. It is noted that the basis of meaning is its ontological characteristic, that is, a phenomenon arising from the real life relationships of an individual with the outside world. The nature of the meaning, which is an integral, consolidating, is determined by its transcendence. The meaning is always in the objective world. In other words, human does not choose and does not invent meaning, on the contrary, by selfrealization, it forms its connection with the world – its life meaning. Therefore, human existence requires direction to someone (something) other than herself. This metaphysical connection of being and meaning ensures the connection of human co-existence. So the true life meaning is always outside the human self, and therefore requires unity with other people. This logic reveals the phenomenon of comprehension as an integral being element, its symbolic component. Because of this, the main task of human is to go beyond the limits of their own selfishness, to feel their connection with the surrounding world. In this perspective, the meaning phenomenon is revealed in the space of sacral transformation, the personality birth. The more human overcomes the power of selfishness in themselves, the more he reveals the uniqueness of the surrounding world, the more he improves, realizes himself, acquires understanding of his own personality. In other words, self-realization itself does not foresee a direction. When in the human creativity field there is no orientation towards another human, when he «creatеs» for himself, a human must be prepared to be disappointed. Such «creativity» is empty, unclaimed, since it is devoid of its main content – love, that is, meaning. In other words, self-realization in itself should not and can not be the goal of human life. It is the result of the life meaning realization that is achieved only in the harmonious human connection with the outside world, only in productive relations with others. Therefore, self-realization is only a side effect of the man’s release beyond his own self. Consequently, meaningful life is not concentrated on its own «I», but is connected internally and externally with the lives of others. Moreover, this life is not only connected but it is also integral, since the nature of human relationship with the surrounding reality is a projection of the attitude towards himself. Thus, the analysis of the consolidation mechanisms of human existence, of its integrity, harmony, must focus in the space of the meaning problem. In other words, it is a matter of gaining a real individual experience of unity with the world. It is precisely this perspective of studying problems of integration of social and individual order that allows you to offer tools and ways to solve the issue.

The purpose of the study is to show narrative (narration) as a category that combines individual elements of knowledge, expressed through language, and, thus, ensures the cohesion of the linguistic and cultural picture of the world. In the light of this concept, the linguistic-cultural picture of the world is understood as a dynamic, multi-layered narrative depending on the accepted points of view, intentions, approaches and methods of conceptualization, categorization and axiologization of reality adopted in this culture. This article deals with the narrative of human life, which creates the expressions in Polish and Russian that contain verbs of movement. The analysis of the chosen phrases allows us to determine how similar life experiences are perceived in both languages, as well as to what extent the cultural conditions and the genetic proximity of both languages have an influence on similarities in the image of human existence.

Liquefied petroleum fuel (LPG) is the most vital phase of every day human life, however the protection of human existence is required for the gasoline explosion. This methodology is used to shield human life. In this, the MQ2 sensor is used to realize fuel leaks in the home. If the fuel leak is detected automatically, it will ship an SMS to the user. Wifi is one of the most used networks in the world. It additionally affords the computerized reserve characteristic of LPG gasoline when the proprietor is busy and measures the non-stop weight of the LPG cylinder the use of a load cell. An AWS server is used to join the patron to the administrator and robotically replace the reservation data on the server. This work helps the business enterprise to especially point out the gasoline leak and helps each clients and the corporation to mechanically e book the fuel the use of the IOT technique.
