Unveiling the mystery of our origin is probably what most motivates our quests and plans. Now such a disclosure proves to be impossible. Indeed we were born of a union between two, and we are forever deprived of an origin of our own. Hence our ceaseless search for roots: in our genealogy, in the place where we were born, in our culture, religion or language. But a human being cannot develop starting from roots as a tree does, it must take on responsibility for its own being and existence without continuity with its origin and background. How can we succeed in doing that? First by cultivating our breathing, which is not only the means thanks to which we come into the world, but which also allows us to transcend mere survival towards a spiritual becoming. Taking on our sexuate belonging is the second element which makes us able to assume our natural existence. Indeed this determination at once brings us energy and provides us with a structure which contributes to our individuation and our relations with other living beings and the world. Our sexuation can also compensate for our absence of roots by compelling us to unite with the other sex so that we freely approach the copulative conjunction from which we were born; that is, the mystery of our origin. This does not occur through a mere sexual instinct or drive, but requires us to cultivate desire and love with respect for our mutual difference(s). In this way we become able to give rise to a new human being, not only at a natural but also at an ontological level. 001358377 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001358377 650_0 $$aPhilosophy of mind. 001358377 650_0 $$aOntology. 001358377 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001358377 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aIrigaray, Luce.$$tTo Be Born.$$dCham : Springer International Publishing, ©2017$$z9783319392219 001358377 852__ $$bebk 001358377 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-39222-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001358377 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1358377$$pGLOBAL_SET 001358377 980__ $$aBIB 001358377 980__ $$aEBOOK 001358377 982__ $$aEbook 001358377 983__ $$aOnline 001358377 994__ $$a92$$bISE
