Abstract: The meanings or signals that the human spirit receives to find meaning in existence constitute an opportunity for the human being to create connections between the immanent and the transcendent. In these pages, we will try to address some situations (with reference to the work or the philosophical-moral conception of two thinkers, Socrates and Augustine) that open real bridges between the two areas, as well as the rational-intellectual functions that can facilitate them. These happenings and the meanings we will fall upon we call them borderline situations. The meanings and connections that can appear, the issues around living-limit and theorizing its aspects, in its general lines, but especially the way we listen (a term we will insist on in these pages), are a general theoretical framework. Within it, disciplines of human knowledge appear, and the set of individual, intellectual-psychic skills, models, and methods of knowledge are fine-tuned.
