As so often happens with the philosophy of Ortega, a beautiful metaphor serves as a solution to reconcile two versions in tension within his thought. First, Ortega is loyal to an image os the techniques as a creature of desire and as a generator of problems, to a conventional view of the technique than the majority of his contemporaries, the technique as discovery of the possibility, as the creation of a new world that is possible because the reality is revealed in its requirements as something broader and more complex, more seductive. The technique can be like the centaur Chiron, who was the master of the Greeks, wich leads us to a more complex understanding of the reality, of our being in it, and as such, a new philosophical way to seize what things are and can be, the meaning of our life.
