Concepción de la muerte en el existencialismo aplicado en consultoría filosófica como proceso educativo.

Abstract

The certainty of death is part of an inescapable destiny in being. From the most remote times it constitutes one of the fundamental problems of philosophy against which a series of answers can be issued. This work analyzes the conception of death in existentialism, what has been said and what is valid in our days, hence it is appropriate to provide educational instruments based on philosophical advice to guide man to personal knowledge and an act according to their convictions. The philosophical approach primarily pursued is the hermeneutic through a journey through the existentialist current with a look at the thought of Martin Heidegger and Jean Paul Sartre, then examine the principles of philosophical consulting, understood as a personalized educational process for the elaboration of the concept of death and its vital implications. Therefore, it is necessary to recognize the value involved in talking about death today from overcoming subjective and misleading concepts to generate critical positions regarding what is proposed and in this way the individual can return his gaze to the source of philosophy: being able to think for yourself.
