Ambigüidade da técnica e disponibilidade para o sagrado no pensamento de Martin Heidegger

Abstract

In one way, metaphysics is said to be the reason of all occidental history, which also turns to be the technique’s matters. But, how does Heidegger understand the question of the technique? What is going to be the destiny of our civilization, now that we live in the perfect metaphysics way? Basically, the challenge of the technological exploration leads mankind to use reality as raw material, in a different way, nature turns to be seen as a natural resource to supply energy to a world totally managed. However, technique is a way to bring up the essence of being as such as it is. No longer is a destiny sent by the being in its essence, but it is thoughtfully to be a way of interpretation. Rather, thinking the technique as a question, it only matters to who interests about the being, to those who, mysteriously, in some way still hear its appeal, although they are often surrounded by denied attitude. Heidegger is not glad to bring up the nihilism; at the same time, he assumes the dangerous hegemony of technical thought and rational in a logical way. He believes that this process still keeps the promise of “the day after” fulfilled of meaning, where finally will disclose to the man the possibility of replacing the question about the being in a different way. As Hölderlins thought, Heidegger believes that where danger is, grows what saves also. The author trust that with the technique we prepare ourselves to be replaced on the way that will lead us on us - that is what Heidegger names to be Ereignis. Perhaps, this horizon could be very close; so close that very often we could not see it. So, we assume the challenge of demonstrating how the heidegger´s philosophy thinks the technique’s essence. It makes us think about a new relation of the modern world with the sacred one and the future of a poetical habitation of the man in the world.
