Transcending and autopoeisis of consciousness

The article identifies processes and phenomena of autopoiesis of consciousness. Particular attention is paid to the disclosure of the processes and characteristics of transcending. In the depths of the consciousness incipient in the language area and functioning as a zone for matching and descriptions of organism activity, an observer as a result of consciousness recursive descriptions comes into being. The observer forms and ‘removes’ transcendencies of different kinds, and transcending appears as a cognitive-semantic setting of reality. Different observers form various meanings, nevertheless, understanding among them is possible. It is achieved as a creative transcending allotment of that symbolic content, which comes from other, with meanings. A conclusion is made that autopoiesis of a human being is cogitative, it has a teleological character, and transcending is a fundamental process in autopoiesis.
