Abstract | In Heidegger's philosophy,getting back to the ground of metaphysics--transcending metaphysics--entails a transcendence of the ordinary function of human consciousness. Zen's transcendence however--especially with regard to subject-object duality--is much more radical than Heidegger's. Even the late Heidegger,Heidegger III,presents his "Ereignis" as a third,appropriating ontological link,existing beyond being and nonbeing. But in Zen this would be classified as "relative" "Sunyata",not "absolute" "Sunyata",which is neither relative nor relational but paradoxical to the extent that it does not even have itself. And in view of Heidegger's concern--obsession--with dread,his "homecoming" itself is questionable. Zen would say that Heidegger's difficulty,right to the end,was that he was still thinking metaphysically,despite his effort otherwise; moreover,that his thinking was never genuinely transmetaphysical but at best quasi-metaphysical. |
