The Silence of Beyng and the Fullness of Nothingness. On the Experience of the Salvific in Martin Heidegger's Thought

In various contexts of his work, Heidegger speaks of the wholesome and of the disaster, of the holy, of salvation, of need and of needlessness. The starting point for the following reflections is Heidegger's short essay "Der Feldweg [Country Path],' where he speaks of the "silent power of the field path," its power of "serenity." But what is this "power" based on? In the third of his Feldweg-Gesprache [ Country Path Conversations], Heidegger talks about the salutary in a dialogical way that invites into a conversation. The experience of silence mentioned there must be reflected upon, and thus the question of whether the experience of silence can be healing should be addressed: such a reconsideration of Heidegger leads the interpretation back to the fundamental ontological analysis of fallenness and, from there, gains access to "the need of needlessness" and the question of what is salutary.
