"Being is no longer the essential matter to be thought." Martin
Heidegger Western thought clings to the notion that consciousness
is essentially both 'intentional' (awareness of something) and the
private property of an egoic 'subject'. It has no concept of a
Universal Awareness or 'Absolute Subjectivity' of the sort that
Indian thought has long understood as the source of all
individualised consciousness. Yet in the language of Martin
Heidegger we find words such as 'The Open' or 'The Illuminating
Clearing', which suggest a primordial 'space' or 'light' of
awareness - one that is the condition for any consciousness of
things, and is not the private property of any being, body, brain
or 'ego'. Heidegger, Phenomenology and Indian Thought explores in
an original way the proximity of this language to those schools of
Indian thought which recognise a pure, universal and
'non-intentional' dimension of consciousness - an Awareness (Chit)
prior to and transcending 'Being' itself (Sat).
