Ontology is the study of being and, in particular, the investigation of the nature of being human.
When we speak of ontology , we refer to exploring the nature of existence, especially our human existence. For centuries, both Western and Eastern philosophers have been engaged in exploring this question and developed different interpretations of ontology . The Ontology of the Human Observer is an interpretation of the nature of our human existence. As a discipline, it is a body of knowledge that incorporates a set of distinctions and conceptualisation about the beingness of humans. However, the source and inspiration of the term comes from the work of two Chileans, Humberto Maturana and Rafael Echeverria.
