    This document discusses intersubjectivity and how we come to know God. It argues that we know God through cultivating a relationship, not by understanding concepts. Our existence and subjective identity is constituted by our relations with others. When the maternal presence arises as the first signifier of desire for the child, the erotic drive of our nature is transformed into personal relations. The subject is born through the joy of love's first leap signified by the mother.

    GESSEL F DURANO GRADE 12- IT1

    WEEK 13 ACTIVITY – INTERSUBJECTIVITY

    “PRESENT”
    “We know God by cultivating a relationship, not by understanding a concept.
    The relation constitutes the very subjectivity of of our existence. We participate in existence
    consciously and rationally, with subjective self-knowledge and identity, because the erotic drive of
    our nature is transformed into a personal relation when there arises in the space of the Other the
    first signifier of desire: the maternal presence. The subject is born with love's first leap of joy.”
    ― Christos Yann Aras
