Abstract

"Experience" because of its extension of this concept is extremely broad, unclear thinking in philosophy, experience may be due to a conscious person, to know their activities, so the experience can be said that people Yishi their relationship with other things, is a direct awareness is the person lived events. For this reason, the object of experience is very clear, specific and real. Experience with multi-dimension, which contains many interrelated factors and part of, so its structure is very complicated. Experience with the dynamic process of development, meaning their mobility, historical timing. Person's experience is one kind of intellectual relationship between people and their objects, and the experience of each person is the object fragment imaging, but the consciousness has continued to make "some" and "whole" experience of integration; what we called the people to give each object meaning, expression of human whole life experience. Whole and part, is a relationship with many, it became clear after the presentation of reflection, reflection is a way to express the experience. Experience in both the human and intellectual relationship between one kind of object is the source of human knowledge, is also a person know themselves, to understand humanity's basic material. Reflection and description of the experience that philosophy, from human experience to interpret their own understanding, this is the philosophical anthropology. Scholastic philosophy in understanding the person, on a "bit cell", "subject" interpretation of the people there, from the ontological or metaphysical relationship, indicating that both the content. Experience is an ambiguous term that defies definition because of its extensive use in the history of philosophy. In general, it refers to the fact that man is conscious of his activities, consciousness, therefore, is the condition for the possibility of experience. For this reason, experience can be said to be the direct grasp of events lived in human consciousness. Each event represents part of the vast field of experience which is a sturctured whole with multiple parts. Experience is a dynamic field because of its fluidity, temporality and historicity . Human experience is the cognitive relation lived event is a fragment of appearances perceive, but there is a continuous integration of the parts whole. This means that every moment of experience is a part of the experience of the whole person. This relation of the parts to the whole, the one and the many is made explicit through reflection. As it is the cognitive relation, experience is the source of man's self understanding and other forms of knowledge. Reflection and explanation of these lived events become philosophy; the interpretation of himself through experience becomes philosophical anthropology. Scholastic philosophy interprets this self understanding as "person", and "subject", and explains the contents of these two concepts from an ontological or metphysical point of view
