Memorial Address Conversations on a Country Path about Thinking Calculative vs. Meditative Thinking
Summary: Heidegger expresses concern that humanity is in "flight from thinking," meaning we are increasingly losing the capacity for meditative thought due to our over-reliance on and immersion in calculative thinking. This flight from thinking, he suggests, leads to a kind of "homelessness" in a world increasingly dominated by technology. He argues that while we cannot simply reject technology, we must find a way to engage with it in a non-calculative manner, allowing for a space where meditative thought can flourish.
