Meaning-for-Us/Structure-in-Itself

Assuming that these provisions, also, are met, I should want to stress that the meaning of being, or of ultimate reality, for us is intrinsically double-sided, in that it comprises both the ultimate reality that has a meaning for us and the us for which ultimate reality has a meaning, each understood in terms of the other. Thus ultimate reality is ultimate reality as authorizing our authentic selfself-understanding, even as our authentic self-understanding understanding is our selfunderstanding -understanding as authorized by ultimate reality.
As such, however, the meaning of ultimate reality for us involves both things to be believed (credenda) and things to be done (agenda) and therefore necessarily has both metaphysical and moral implications. It necessarily has metaphysical implications in that, on the side of ultimate reality, the meaning of ultimate reality for us necessarily presupposes the structure of ultimate reality in itself. It necessarily has moral implications in that, on the side of us, or our authentic self-understanding, the meaning of ultimate reality for us necessarily entails certain properly moral actions.
