Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes the problem of the inner dialogue as it emerges from the philosophy of Mihai Șora as placed at the crossroads between the problem of being and consciousness, respectively ontology and anthropology. One theme that is responsible for bridging the problem of being with that of anthropology in Șora’s thought is the issue of consciousness. In this sense, any inquiry concerning the human takes place by reference to a (particular) consciousness, which is able to know and apprehend the existence of world. At the same time, Mihai Șora’s view on the human being can be understood by reference to his own ontological model, which aims to approach, analyze and discuss in detail the entire problem of being, that is ontology. There¬fore, what I am aiming to present and critically address in this work deals with the manner in which the relation between being and consciousness gets constituted within Șora’s perspective of the inner dialogue.
