Unheimlich is the fundamental groundlessness of our existence, this profoundly felt sense of not-being-at-home, wherever one would be. Just like the fear of death, we cover this fact by involving ourselves in always deeper illusions of familiarity: “while the particular Dasein drifts along towards an ever-increasing groundlessness as it floats, the uncanniness of this floating remains hidden from it under their protecting shelter” (Heidegger 1962, 214). Nonetheless, one may still feel the prevailing lack of true connection to a place. It is the experience of angst that allows us to truly reach the ‘existential’ depth of Dasein’s condition: not-being-at-home. Angst is a form of dread with an indefinite object of focus: it is the profoundly unpleasant and worried feeling about being alive, as such. This “being alive, as such” corresponds to Heidegger’s “Being-in-the-world”: “That which anxiety is anxious about is Being-inthe-world itself” (232). There is one possible way out, however, and this is what this anxiety leads to reveal: “In anxiety one feels ‘uncanny’” and Heidegger adds, “here “uncanniness” also means “not-being-at-home” (das Nichtzuhause-sein) (233). Angst, as threatening as it seems, is the human emotion, the human existential experience, that gives a chance to Dasein, the human being, to step away from its illusions of home and familiarity in order to reach a higher level of existence, of authenticity: “as Dasein falls, anxiety brings it back from its absorption in the ‘world’. Everyday familiarity collapses. Dasein has been individualized, but individualized as

>is existence deterministic or one of pure probability?
existence is running on quantum "engine\script".
So it's neither this or that. Ffs, check quantum biology. Is the north pole deterministic or accidental for a robin? Everything runs on quantum mechanics, absolutely, especially your brain\consciousness. 208gk

Try dropping one of then, you'll cease to exist the same moment any of these subs hit the low\high level. Not even mentioning the other chemicals that "fuel" the image you see with your eyes and perceive it as reality. ( Not even mentioning the fact that your entire physiology, instincts, reflexes, body structure, every single reaction and eyes movement comes straight up from your fish\lizard\ape ancestry. Your every single movement and reaction has 500 million year history of evolution in them, from bacteria to mammals. The "consciousness", is the most overrated, weak, ephemeric, illusive, dream-like thing in this entire "reality game" called life. Even the sun is nothing but a speck of burning dust that will fade in a second. Only the endless, dark, matterless void is somewhat close to being actually "alive, independent, real", where as anything made of stuff is just a cheap firework.
