Event of Being: Heidegger's Philosophy for a Rootless Age

By Borna Ahadi

What does it mean to be? And why has that question-so simple, yet so profound-haunted the greatest minds across the ages, from pre-Socratic philosophers to the shattered intellect of modernity? In an era where identity is blurred and truth seems fleeting, Heidegger's radical confrontation with the question of Being offers not just insight, but existential rescue.

In Event of Being: Heidegger's Philosophy for a Rootless Age, readers are invited into the profound and unsettling philosophical world of Martin Heidegger, the 20th century's most enigmatic thinker. This work offers not only a compelling interpretation of Heidegger's central concerns but also a vivid journey into the heart of existential questioning-accessible, insightful, and strikingly relevant for our contemporary lives.

This book is more than an academic introduction-it's a philosophical meditation for the modern soul. In an age defined by distraction, acceleration, and technological dominance, The Call of Being returns us to the original question of ontology. With lucid chapters and rich, thought-provoking language, it explores Heidegger's radical rethinking of existence, from the analysis of Dasein and Being-in-the-world to the darker themes of anxiety, death, and the collapse of meaning.

Each chapter is carefully crafted to clarify Heidegger's most challenging ideas, presenting them not as abstract theories, but as urgent invitations to reclaim a more authentic and rooted way of living. Readers will discover how Heidegger's critique of technology unveils the danger of reducing the world-and ourselves-to mere utility. At the same time, they'll encounter his poetic turn: toward language, dwelling, and the hidden holiness of Being.

Inside this philosophical odyssey, you'll explore:

The forgotten origin of the question of Being from the Greeks to modernityThe revolutionary concept of Dasein and its existential structuresThe meaning of authenticity in a conformist ageThe poetic dimension of Being in language and artHow Heidegger's later thought confronts the spiritual and ecological crises of our time

Whether you are a student of philosophy, a spiritual seeker, or someone questioning the emptiness of modern life, The Call of Being will challenge, awaken, and inspire you. It is an invitation to pause, to reflect, and to stand face to face with the deepest mystery of all.

In the silence of Being, something calls. Are you ready to listen?
