Overcoming Metaphysics
It holds itself in a truth which has long since been forgotten and is without ground.

There can be an object in the sense of ob-ject only where man becomes a subject, where the subject becomes the ego and the ego becomes the ego cogito, only where this cogitare is conceived in its essence as the "original synthetic unity of transcendental apperception," only where the apex for "logic" is attained (in truth as the certainty of the "I think"). Here the being of the object first reveals itself in its objectivity. Here it first becomes possible and, as a consequence, unavoidable to understand objectivity itself as "the new true object" and to think it unconditionally.

Subjectivity, object, and reflection belong together. Only when reflection as such is experienced, namely, as the supporting relation to beings, only then can Being be determined as objectivity.
The experience of reflection as this relation, however, presupposes that the relation to beings is experienced as repraesentatio in general: as re-presentation.
But this can become a matter of destiny only when the idea has become perceptio. The transformation of truth as correspondence to truth as certainty, in which the adaequatio remains preserved, underlies this change. Certainty as self-guaranteeing (willing-onself) is iustititia as the justification of the relation to beings and of their first cause, and thus of the belongingness to beings. Iustificatio in the sense of the Reformation and Nietzsche's concept of justice as truth are the same thing. {GA 7: 84}
Essentially, repraesentatio is grounded in reflexio. For this reason, the being of objectivity as such first becomes evident where the being of thinking is recognized as explicitly brought about as "I think something," that is, as reflection.
