This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on the introduction to Martin Heidegger's early work Being and Time, specifically on his discussion in section 4 of the necessity and nature of the "existential analysis of Dasein". In the process we examine what existence and existentiality mean for Heidegger.

Hey Gregory, I really appriciate what you do on KZbin. Your video's serve as great introductions to start reading with a better context and frame of reference.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Glad the videos are useful for you

[@jlazelle1]

I always love it when "past me" hooks "present me" up!

[@GregoryBSadler]

Past me in my case can be kind of a jerk

[@cleoh666]

These concepts are quite confusing initially but by the end of the video I actually feel like I understood what Heidegger meant, so thank you!

[@GregoryBSadler]

Glad it was helpful for you

[@alexm3960]

Thank you so much for these videos! They are so helpful!

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're very welcome

[@astral5ram]

Thank you for the video!

[@JR-hi9bu]

Thanks for this. I was busy confused about Dasein with no videos addressing my issue when the simple rephrasing of 'can be questioned' rather than 'in question' made it clear. I thought it was some sort of deep existential crisis though apparently it wasn't psychological. Thanks.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Glad the video was useful for you

[@nourfathaalim401]

thank you so much for making it clear because i'm drowning in confusions with Heidegger's philosophy.

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're very welcome

[@fatemehaghaei1954]

i really apperciate your explanations , thank you .

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're very welcome!

[@julesjgreig]

Thank you, Dr Sadler

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're welcome!

[@wcropp1]

This was a good one--I always particularly enjoy the Heidegger videos. I'm sure you've got plenty of videos to work on, but some Core Concepts videos on Wittgenstein would be cool to do one of these days. Maybe some comparison of the Tractatus to the Investigations, etc. Just something to consider. Thanks for the video!

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're very welcome!

[@clockworkOMNI]

Gregory B. Sadler I would cosponsor this request

[@jonathanharris2326]

I love your videos they definitely help me understand the extremely confusing Heidegger. Keep up the good work. P.S. You look and sound like Penn Jillette.

[@brokeproductions3727]

I was thinking when did Penn study philosophy :D

[@quinn3334]

youre such a great educator. thank you for saving my ass with these concepts during essay season for years now.

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're very welcome - and thanks!

[@chickensouplover516]

Greg coming in the clutch to help me write my term papers again ❤

[@GregoryBSadler]

Glad the videos are helpful for you

[@13kaxno13]

thank you for your work, sir,, this is the first video of yours that I stumbled upon, could have been one of many, but for some reason I feel compelled to express my gratitude :D and here it is,, I get a good feeling from this ,,, congratulations! :D I know this sounds wacky )) but it is what it is

[@GregoryBSadler]

Glad you enjoyed it. See what you think down the line, more videos later!

[@darraghosullivan2366]

Hey Dr.Gregory. I want to lay out this in my opinion. It may be harder to understand dasein if I am in an experience. Past(unconscious) me had a great idea/intention into which I then entered the experience. To be conscious within the experience I opened to the feelings between the extremes of Hope and Despair as I ride the time of the exterience event. Hope might be an objective expectation of success to the intention and despair would be the grinding crawling in time to the end of the experience. The end of the experience may be when one no longer dwells on the concept of time (hypnosis, alcohol, meditation....for tempory relief). This might be a short term goal or soul goal. I think most of us are possibly in many open desiem's. We may emerge by giving up both hope and dispare in theory. Heidegger posssibly had such an experience when he stopped writing a book and never came back to it as the experience hadn't run its course for him to emerge. He didn't like the experience of the then nationalist socialism and left it incomplete thus living in dispare as a result... So this may sound a bit mad but I need to start somewhere, what would this theory say to you? Many thanks!

[@GregoryBSadler]

Being and Time was finished and published before the Nazis took over

[@daseinbellen]

thank you for this explanation, enjoyed

[@GregoryBSadler]

Glad to read it - that means a lot coming from a long-time reader of Heidegger!

[@melaniefelicityagsten6301]

I am listening to your explanation of Dasein / Heidegger - the german word of Dasein can be expressed as Being , Existance and Presence - the english word presence , linkied in a phrase of the presence of existance could also be used to discuss the larger concept of Dasein.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Yep. And sometimes it has been.

[@user-xo8gi5my7d]

Thank you for this, it has helped a lot. Would be great if you could say what pages you are quoting from in new videos!

[@GregoryBSadler]

Not going to happen. It’s enough to mention the section and let people do their own work after I supply them with free lectures, I think

[@mayanl2524]

I love ur videos... ur best

[@GregoryBSadler]

Thanks!

[@rickyjayviesca9443]

Sir gregory can you help me or explain to me what is this mean " dasein is to access itself as a whole, or be a whole, by turning itself into not dasein" because im a begginer i hope you will explain to me ty🙂🙂

[@GregoryBSadler]

If you're looking for help with the text beyond what's available in my videos, or in the monthly Q&A sessions I hold, you'd need to book a tutorial session.

[@freeri87]

Sadler: Could you recommend some of the best, most pervasive criticisms of Heidegger? Type Carnap, Ayer etc. but more on Being and Time in particular.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Afraid that's not in my line. I tend to focus my available time on rereading a range of primary sources, not so much on trying to dig up criticism, let alone evaluate criticism

[@Philiopantheon82]

I didnt quite get the difference between the ontic and ontological, could you give shed more light please?

[@GregoryBSadler]

Well, you've got the video and you've got the text, so I can't really give you more specific help here on this distinction. If you want to book a tutorial session here's my site - reasonio.wordpress.com/tutorials/

[@Philiopantheon82]

Yeah i will have another look at the video and on the provided link. Thanks sir:)

[@trashygit]

Ontic: being and beings, or simply "things that exist in nature" with or without human logos. If we want to give example, using the language of the natural sciences: earth, atoms, atmosphere, living creatures (including humans), the cells or organs of these things, light, sound, neurons, hydrogen, etc. etc. Here is the trick: We used language in order to give these examples, didn't we? Of course physicists, chemists or mathematicians can and do also use formulas instead of everyday language; but that difference doesn't matter, at the end of the day, ordinary language or formulas, or even graphical descriptions are still parts of human touch. Now we come to the core point: Ontological: being and beings, or simply "things" as understood, interpreted, represented, communicated, formulated, all in all "dealt with" by human logos, or human mind. Hence onto(+logic). That is to say, we have no way of engaging with natural or human affairs without translating them into ontological way of understanding. We can sense and perceive the existence of ontical things, we can phenomenologically engage with them, even handle them if they are objects, or feed our stomach, etc. But as soon as we try to "explain" what's going on to any Dasein, either our own self or any other human being, we have to use ontological methods, or simply language. This is the compulsory or unavoidable existence of Dasein ("human" if you like) and we have no other choice. Of course, language can also be used to manipulate "Das-man", an everyday human beings and their repetitive ("mindless" if you like) existence. But this is another topic. To be very short, "ontic" refers to things, "ontological" refers to things translated into human understanding.

[@marie.theartist]

@@trashygit You explained beautifully. Super clear and and direct.

[@marie.theartist]

@@GregoryBSadler The explanation was complex. Maybe simple examples like the responds that was given by Zanna Scarlet, down bellow this message box.

[@orekichronicles]

what is the difference between the dasein in the world and other entities in the world?

[@GregoryBSadler]

All sorts, as you'll find when you read the text. For one, Dasein asks about the meaning of being

[@louieadriangonzales2314]

Does heidegger have 3 notions on the human person? If yes then kindly cite them.

[@ahobimo732]

Good video, but Heidegger is definitely not light reading.

[@GregoryBSadler]

He's not, that's right

[@Reformsqua]

At least mention phenomenology

[@GregoryBSadler]

Reformed2005 you probably want to watch the video on that instead then. Easy enough to google
