The continuum of “thinking-existence” of the personality and experience of beautiful

The article is devoted to the study of the theme of the continuity of "thinking-existence" and the experience of the beautiful as a criterion of the truth of the existential experience of a person. The author shows that the modern philosophical tradition, based on the textual method of accumulating and transmitting knowledge in culture, in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries approaches the understanding of the “thinking-existence” continuum as an existential experience of a person, where the beautiful as the nature of the experience itself serves as a guarantor of its being truth. The author pays special attention to the concept of Merab Mamardashvili, who considered the event of "thought" as a true realization of human nature. It’s occurring exclusively in the inner dimension of the consciousness of a person, but later becoming a cultural support. The article develops the idea that the relationship between beauty and truth in the deep, existential sense of the word is largely intuitive. Therefore, the aesthetics of thinking can be understood in cultural practice by any person for all its conceptual complexity. Because it is based on the experience of beauty as such, which is fundamentally available to everyone who thinks and, therefore, exists.
