Summary/Abstract: Western European philosophy very often experienced crises, which had been shown in numerous apories. The reason of this lay in classical rationalism, the enlightenment faith in the power of mind and progress, and the positivist faith in the power of science along with the Western European voluntarism. Opposed to this is the conception of ecclesiastic philosophy by N. Berdyaev, as this philosophy is superindividual and superhuman, and that is the reason that this philosophy is not rational, gnostic, speculative, nor scholastic. In that way that philosophy is nearest to the sense and the truth of being, which every human is looking for in the whole time of his life.
