¶1
In general, because, as we put it above, the substance is in itself or implicitly Subject, all contents of its own reflection into itself. 1Substance is therefore self-identity. It is but nothing that a pure abstraction; but it is a what we call a thinking.
¶2
Being is Thought. It is an abstraction of itself from itself, or it is itself its lack of self-identity and its dissolution. Withdrawal into itself, its own becoming.
¶3
On the contrary, since our knowing is not reflection from its contents.
Those three argument approve my Hegelian thesis about the “Archetypal Hero”
Hegel calls and classified all the experiences of rationalism under terminus universal; formalized into the abstract form, as a lifeless universal. The first philosophical school was talking about the major theme of “Being” for the very first time. This mere abstraction, is therefore negative, brings itself its negative if we look back on the basics of all rationalism and revolution during time of I. Kant; the negation is similarly immediate aspect, it is “Nothing”. By abstracting away the concreteness of the actual experience, one is left with being, which is nothing. This process, process of abstraction is also used by Hegel in phrase “doing away”.
Being and Nothing are thus identical, the truth of being and nothing is the unity of the two, which makes a trio – the unity is “Becoming”. Unity of becoming does not obliterate Being and nothing, but holds both tension in a higher truth. This part of contradiction, divided into two modes, thus this is what unites or overcomes (or even destruct) them, we can discover the general triad. This method of overcoming contradictions by moving to a higher level of truth is known as the Dialectic. Hegel's own special systematic logic divided from idea inspired by human history – never-ending development, a circle, but what more, a spiral; all functioning as a support and tool for development of Hegelian vision, and proofs as well.
The dialectical system of reality are three foundation Triad of Being:
BEING, NOTION, BECOMING
BEING, ESSENCE, NOTION
IDEA, NATURE, MIND
The “Other” is an acknowledgment of the self-consciousness of the possibility, but if there is the Other, the original self-consciousness feels threaten, but certainly the master supposes to be the subject. Requires absolute freedom and domination, but more problems will be explained later on this point. It asserts it and is trying by domination in mode of a master and servant. But most important is a fact that the ensuing struggle results in a master who dominates, and a servant who is dominated. The very master abstracts its forces, but the servant is producing material of goods for the enjoyment of the master. (!)
At this point, the master is slowly becoming to be dependent upon the servant he has dominated.
First, in this place, master depends upon the servant, while the master has been consuming or destructing what servant makes, thus the servant had been learning to create...to bend nature into his own will.
Establishing his own self-consciousness and suddenly, the roles are slowly changing.2

1The self-moving Soul realized the contents of the very movement of being that immediately is, consist partly in becoming than other than itself, and thus becoming its own immanent content. Partly taking it back into itself unfolding existence, i.e., in making itself into a moment. And therefore simplifying into something different.
