Abstract

Through Martin Buber’s ‘I and Thou’, a profound philosophical reflection on the encounter between ‘I and Thou’, we can see that we can achieve true life only through true encounter. In contrast, if we live inhumanely, using each other as if we were objects, in an ‘I-It’ relationship, the value and dignity of the personality of members of our community is lost. The essence of a true encounter is a direct conversation with one's whole being. The important thing is that I cannot achieve such a meeting and conversation just because I want it and am obsessed with it. The meeting time is when you empty your heart towards the other person and wait for that grace with sincerity. That one moment of grace becomes an eternal moment in a person's life.
