Abstract

Thinking is one of those themes through of which Later Heidegger investigates about relationship of man with the Truth of Being. Truth of Being is the fundamental event under the historical destines sent by it the uncovering and hiddenness have their essential sway accomplished and man has an understanding of truth. According to Later Heidegger, we live in the age of need and forgetfulness of being and due to the domination of Will to Power we are deprived from an authentic thinking and also an original relationship with the world. Of course, thoughtlessness or lack of thinking is itself a destiny of Truth of Being and our negligence of this issue leads to the exacerbation of this need. In the current essay we study the meaning of original thinking which is referred to by Heidegger as meditative thinking within the context of his discussion of the hidden essence of being. We will show that Heidegger's debate of thinking has a well-established relevance to the core issue of his philosophy, i.e. problem of the Truth of Being. Moreover, it will be shown that the stance of such critics as Joseph C. Pitt concerning Heidegger's notion of technology as a passive understanding of technology is untenable because it does not ground itself on the originary concept of man as the Da of Seyn. Rather Pitt's notion of technology is founded on the understanding of calculative thinking that insists on Cartesian Subject that exacerbates the Seinsvergessenheit
