Abstract
The article first analyzes the levels and scope of husserlian monadology. It examines the instinctual basis that underpins the relationship between monads, the teleology that guides monadic development, and the emergence of primordial modes of reason and love. Second, the awakening of the monads is considered. It is shown how an ontological form, which has its earlier formation in instinctive teleology, develops progressively, as human beings become conscious of it, into a form of goal that directs the course of teleology toward an increase in knowledge and value. Third, the development of teleology in the practical sphere is described according to pre-ethical and ethical phases. The main focus is on trying to establish a sequence of stages of perfection, marking the differences between ethical consciousness and disposition, self-satisfaction and happiness. The article then moves on to an examination of irrational contingency, that is, the setbacks experienced by teleology. Finally, it examines the relationship between teleology and philosophical theology with an emphasis on our practical and intersubjective access to God, the metatranscendental and metahuman character of God, and the coexistence of human freedom and divine guidance. It is argued that these themes show that Husserl's philosophical presentation is congruent with religious experience.
