Relational Consciousness: Subjectivity and Otherness in Daya Krishna's philosophy
Original language description
In his later works, the contemporary Indian philosopher Daya Krishna investigates the consequences of the paradox that he called "I-centricity", namely the paradox of self-consciousness in its reflexive activity, which considers all that is not self as object. The problem arises when these objects are subjects for themselves. The 'ego-centric predicament' forces us to think "the object as other and the other as object" . How to think the subjectivity of the other in its self-difference and its distinct subjectivity? Is it even possible for a self-consciousness to escape "I-centricity"? Daya Krishna thus suggests the concept of a relational consciousness, of a subjectivity shaped with the other, by an other who is neither an object of my consciousness, nor an assimilation or an extension of myself. I will accordingly suggest an analysis of this challenge of thinking the subjectivity of the other, the "other-consciousness" correlated to the self-consciousness.
