Summary/Abstract: This article deals with the analysis of the pure consciousness in phenomenology. The reduction carried out by phenomenologists presented in the article reveals the existence of the absolute area of consciousness. This in turn leads to a new perception of the Absolute which can be described within its actions while remaining transcendental. My analysis I begin with explaining what is and what is the result of the epoche reduction and transcendental reduction. Then I present an analysis of the internal awareness of time as presented by Husserl and explain why it reveals the absolute sphere of human consciousness. Further, I analyze the views of phenomenologists such as R. Ingarden, A.T. Tymieniecka, E. Stein, E. Fink, L. Landgrebe, L. Quentin regarding transcendental „I” and absolute consciousness. From the analysis emerges an image of the Absolute which is based on subjectivity and relations among subjects.
