Martin Heidegger on technology and philosophy, in conversation with a Buddhist monk.

The idea that the mathematically quantifiable is exhaustive of reality is an extraordinarily audacious declaration of faith. It's also interesting that any sort of faith could compel such a witheringly narrow model of reality.

Rare clip of @TWarPhilosopher interviewing @Jason_Jorjani in a previous metempyschosis

"reality is only what is measurable." (just to be clear, he treats that sentence as secure knowledge in physics, or as a method of scientific discovery) otherwise, it's like saying the table is the only real thing because someone's sight fell upon it. "Denn was man messen kann, das existiert auch." -- is Planck's exact quote, which is completely different so that's why philosophy is important, but it doesn't actively participate in the process. my position is that it is worldly and promotes thinking (but you've gotta be careful there, as it could be misleading); therefore, meaningful and has an impact on the whole

The Eurocentric tradition of browbeating your sons at the dinner table if they try to argue a point with no substantive proof behind it This ridicule and fear led to the West's self-imposed blindness toward anything inexpressible The Useless Unnamable The Embarrassing Invisible

And how do we measure the claim that only what is measurable is real?

o monge foi humilde de fazer perguntas pro Heidegger

@alex_wennerberg cc @being_on_line speaks of this

@esquizocyborg

full interview somewhere?

Great thinker horrible human being. Member of the Nazi party. What a shame.

You just now found this? Good god, man! Are you living in a cave as well ...

If reality is only that which is mathematically measurable, then what is the reality of math itself?

@grok beautiful imagine 100 wives in the image

that where the phrase derives i`m counting on you `cause then it_id make sense tho` that phenom too would vanish over/time words change meanings ideas wear thin & numbers then seem also an at`tempt_at permanence*. * though another_1 bites the dust suggests temporality pre`vails.

この僧侶は、誰だろう？上座仏教徒？ 世界宗教会議 が、あった頃の映像かな。鈴木大拙博士もハイデガーに会ってるから、その映像はないか？

@FlaviaCostaTW

Beautiful speaker

What the contrast to #Islam ✨🤔✨📹🗿🚥🩰

Digging high for Martin!

Wirklich ist nur das, was messbar ist.

Pfff… Heidegger had a deep and active involvement with National Socialism, joining the Nazi party in 1933 and serving as rector of Freiburg University to align it with the regime.

Ya Tesla was connecting this shit before they destroyed him

There's some problem there with ethnostate philosophy
