    Peter:In yesterday's lesson,We learned some thoughts of Heidegger.What is Being and what is Being-onto-death ? "Important thinkers always say the same thing," heidegger said. The same thing is Being. With the guidance of Peter, I have a more profound thinking on the word "Dasein". Heidegger said that the "being" is characterized by the awareness of being while being at the same time, but the "understanding" of being is usually unknown, which is manifested as "abandonment" and "fallenness" in the "being in the world". In think it is like the book of Ecclesiastes says,'' god tested the world and put the hope of eternal life in their hearts.'' The Bible says repeatedly that everything from man will rot, for man is "mortal." Whether a man can be saved depends on how he confronts and triumphs with god in the fear of death.

    Alex:priori,synthetic,hypothetical,morality,priciple…We discussed the meaning of these words. Among them, I have a deeper understanding of the meaning of the word morality . It can be said that man (even the most evil) will not, under any of the rules of conduct, rebel against the moral law.This power itself will be irresistibly applied to a man by virtue of his moral nature, and if no other source of power is opposed to it, he will also incorporate it into his supreme code of conduct as a determining principle capable of choosing will.So we can say that he is morally good. Then I thought more deeply about whether a person is moral or immoral . In my my opinion, the difference between being moral and being immoral lies in the master-slave relationship. Which of the two does he make a condition for the other? A man (even the best) is evil only when he reverses the moral order of the source of power in the act of accepting it as his own code of conduct.

    First aware the fact that the end of your life is death, then live a regretful life

    1. Being-onto-Death is a very interesting idea to be. It could serve as a guideline for how to lead a meaningful life. 2. The most fascinating notion of Heidegger from yesterday for me is that death is not a problem for him, not dying is. Death gives things in life a kind of urgency.

    1.we know how to boost about our understanding about Heidegger by using words like Dasem,being-onto-Death and falleness etc.(LOL)2.We,human beings,have a concepted understanding of the world,which is the difference from other creatures in this world.Today's topic leads us to think the state of our life,how do we live and how to live.3.I am trying to observe life-things carefully(even just capturing the moment)so that I will be able to know exactly the shape of the doorknob.Don't let such tiny-little things pass easily or you have no ideas about what you are going to miss as time goes by.

    1.I understand why human beings are unique is we think about and have a tacit understanding of being ,and they lead and control their life. 2.Being in the world,human have a conceptual understanding of it and engage skillfully with objects. 3.I understand Heidegger's famous thoughts,like Dasem(此在);Falleness; Being onto Death.
