His methodological skepticism systematically dismantled the edifice of sensory perception, mathematical truths, and even the apparent reality of the external world, seeking an indubitable first principle upon which knowledge could be securely rebuilt. In this profound intellectual voyage, the very act of doubting became the incontrovertible proof of the doubter's existence. The "Cogito" thus represents a pivotal epistemological shift from an outward-looking, empirical reliance to an inward-turning, rationalist introspection. It establishes the thinking self as the primary and most certain reality, fundamentally distinct from the extended, mechanical substance of the body. This Cartesian dualism, while resolving the quest for certainty, inadvertently erected a formidable chasm between mind and matter, a dichotomy that would dominate Western philosophy for centuries.
