Hence the human person is indeed a source of wonder and question. But down through the centuries, this typical nature of wonder was not merely outward-looking which directed its attention more to the world surrounding man than to the man himself rather it enabled the human person in philosophical traditions to discover the truths/mysteries of himself.

That he is the center and crown of creation, the point where the whole of reality converges, in whom the whole of existence turns into a subject, becomes logos, and gets transformed into self-transparency and self-consciousness. That is why the progress of philosophy is expressed above all in the anthropocentric orientation.

Anthropocentrism is more important than any scientific theory about physical nature. Philosophical thought cannot remain outside of this universal movement.

Therefore in reality one of our primary concerns is not only to show the human person as a living person, a rational being, a sensitive being, having the operative faculties of intellect and will but to show how through them, there is an immaterial or spiritual functioning in the operative system which in turn presupposes a one ego principle the soul. Hence this way of studying the human person brings us to a foundation that Humans are spiritual.
