Abstract

This article is an attempt to realize the appointment and specification of Philosophy. It shows that the main sign of Philosophy is astonishment, or incomprehension that distin guishes it from Science, Art and Religion. Philosophy begins with personal experience of astonishment, then it moves to understanding due to the technique of philosophical conceptions, and, finally, it, as a philosophical question, returns to more profound incomprehension. So, the essentials of philosophical question are uncovered.
