The paper analyzes Pascal's understanding of the relation between faith and reason as the two possible ways in which man attempts to establish whether God exists and how He may be reached. Pascal departed from an analysis of 'physical knowledge' and its possible application to the questions of faith and things infinite. Discovering the limitations of reason, the philosopher turned elsewhere to search for both proof of Gods existence and the possible ways in which man can strive to be closer to Him. The paper analyzes the meaning and various interpretations of Pascal's notion of 'knowing through the heart'. The author shows how the French philosopher's concept developed, departing form a critique of Cartesian philosophy, his concept of faith and love as essential elements of creating a real relationship with God.
