Abstract
As we pointed out in the Introduction, Heidegger (1962 [1927]) reminds us that humans can’t help but seek answers to complex questions about the environment and our relationship to it. Such need for disclosure leads us to develop tools and methods that enable discovery and increase our knowledge of the unknown. They also allow us to communicate our knowledge in ways that bring forth new worlds and establish pervasive and distinct ways in which things, people and selves appear and make sense to us.
Are you looking for me? I am in the next seat … When you really look for me you will see me instantly. You will find me in the tiniest house of time. Kabir says: Student, tell me, what is God? He is the breath inside the breath. (Kabir, www.poetry.enlightened.org/article.php?id_article=42)
