Normativity as the Ontological Basis for Human Contingencies

Human predicament, pain and suffering are some of the existential problems we face in our life. These problems are studied not only at the existential discourse but often such engagements are also rooted in the metaphysical realm of conceptualizing the problems itself. In our ordinary life, we constantly grapple these problems at various dimensions in order to find meaningful answers that human beings are confronted from within and without. The essay attempts to respond these concerns with some philosophical reflection taking into account normatively as the ontological basis to understand human contingencies. This essay also suggests a possibility of engaging the hard questions for a meaningful dialogue in life.
