RESUMING MY AMATEUR HEIDEGGERIAN ADVENTURE

"My Amateur Heideggerian Adventure" was a project I started in 2006 because I knew something is there for a better understanding and a better life.  I knew I didn't have the technical philosophy chops to equate myself with those in the discipline.  So I continued to make notes and attempts at translating Martin Heidegger into terms that I would find useful.  Those notes are in bits and pieces in my files and those notes have seen some realizations in progress through continued attempts at understanding the professionals.  Through 'coincidence' one discovered author would lead to another.  Some will recognize the Norse saying in Havamal stanza 141 in "word led onward to word.... deed led onward to further deed."  In fact a recognition of the Primordial Tradition in lore as being more in the nature of "Being and Time" than the more vaunted Perennial Tradition.  But that's my thing and I would not submit that to a philosophy department.  Becau
