Summary/Abstract: The belief that nothing is real beyond oneself is an inevitable consequence of subjectivity as a starting point of every process of cognition. How does subjectivity affect objectivity? How to derive objective consciousness from the subjective consciousness? How does the thought grasp anything? By exploring the subjective conditions of the object-constituted-process we come across two sorts of limit. On one hand, there is a source of sensations which we have in our minds, on the other hand there are ideal norms and rules which determine how we think when we are to achieve the given thing (object). The first limit is which we feel when we are conscious of external sensations. The second limit is the sense which we find by thinking. “Thing in itself” and “Third realm” make two points of resistance determined by the object-constituted-process and also by the limit of subjectivity – the limit of my world.
