Junya asked:

Hello. I'm looking for a philosophy which could combine the problem of the balance between body
and mind (or head) and the problem of the Neighbor. I once have attended to a lecture of
Phenomenology, and I remember that lecture time to time in everyday life in my apartment. (The
lecturer professor said he had a project to relate Phenomenology to everyday life phenomena.) By
the way, I have an estimation that the monastic philosophy or theology has very much to do with the
problem of the apartment, although I have read that type of writings very little.

============

You can read about the problem of oneself (body and mind) and the other in Martin Buber's book
Between Man and Manand also in Otherwise than Being or Beyond Essenceby Emmanuel Levinas.
