Subjectivity is the highest level of being we can think of. As such, it cannot be a function of anything else. This means that our experience of our subjectivity has to be cultivated fundamentally for its own sake. The same applies to its connected elements. Contemplation has to be cultivated for contemplation’s sake, spirituality as a person for spirituality as a person’s sake. Sometimes, when I think of my unique experience of being myself, I wonder what I can do now with this consciousness, what the good of this awareness is. In this context it becomes clear that the purpose of experiencing our subjectivity is subjectivity itself.
Moreover, it has to be lived in all of its limits, because without limits subjectivity would not be subjectivity, it would be an object. If we existed forever, we would be no longer subjectivity, we would be objects. We can only, and must, bring continuously these limits into the best possible ways of dialogue with objectivity.
We also need to cultivate positivity, but the possible positive must be identified continuously within the context of these limits, which are essential for subjectivity to be subjectivity rather than objectivity.
