On the purity of European consciousness and the limits of being-time in the existential anthropology of the late M. Heidegger

F. Gonzales and T. Sheehan, like A. Badiou, sought a way out through a new interpretation of the Greeks (through understanding Heidegger's position). And this is their huge achievement. However, they did not pay attention to the fact that any interpretation of the Greeks, including the Heideggerian, except for the spiritual (in our reading, Eastern), is still the way to calculating (or calculating, according to Heidegger) thinking, which without immersion in spirituality is not capable of generating anything more than lamentations about the beauty of Greek thought and contemporary problems of European culture (although

A. Badiou felt this and interpreted the truth as an event, and called the naming of the unnamed the path to evil). In this case, it seems we need an outside point of view.

And it can be the East (and ancient cultures), as there were simply no other sources of thought yet. But we have not forgotten the precepts of hermeneutics, understanding (being and pure thinking as well) begins with tradition. And how many ancient scrolls are still hidden in the Middle East and the Himalayas? We speak of a return to the ancient (wise, but bygone) civilizations of a non-European type. To survive, we must consider their experience, the experience of wise, but descended into non-existence civilizations, from which only traces (of being) remained (as Derrida would put it) and, it's really bad to say, dust.

The Europeans step on their rake again and again, because through Oedipus and Freud they drove their consciousness into that corner from which the Greeks will not give salvation, as psychoanalysis ends in the unconscious, and what is beyond consciousness (calculated thinking) Europeans do not know. This is a dead end (topos), constantly returning us to techne. Oedipus as a symbol urges us to the dependence (non-property). The mass man raised the banner of Oedipus.

In these matters, Eastern wisdom is closer to me; I consider both Plato's thought and Heidegger's thought to be its derivative (most of the largest pre-Socratics studied in the Middle East and Egypt). To reiterate, the West is inevitably drawn to the East, since it holds spiritual wisdom. But the West tried to logicize Eastern ideas (in the Christian aspect including, and this is also from the East and from Aramaic origins) and, apparently, unsuccessfully. Heidegger aptly likened that logos, logic and metaphysics are only a stage in the formation of any high culture, but those who stop at this stage will ultimately receive modern Europe with its fascism and Stalinism, and liberalism (in the European version) just another phase of pandering to the basest instincts. Freud, and indeed Jung, will be overcome, and exactly by religious thinkers. Heidegger is only a symbol of the changes that have begun in modern European thinking. It's already happening.
