Abstract
There is only one area in which the riddle of transcendence does not surface and certain knowledge is possible. We discover this area by applying the “Cartesian method of doubt.” Husserl writes: “the being of the cogitatio, of the experience, is beyond doubt during the experience and in simple reflection on it. The seeing, direct grasping and having of a cogitatio is already a knowing, the cogitationes are the first absolute data.”1
