Summary/Abstract: In Freiburg-im-Breisgau the prophetic and troubled voice of Zarathustra resounds again... The philosophical elite of the West listens once again, fascinated or - this time perhaps in disbelief - to the oracular, sibilant voice that reveals an astonishing truth: The philosophical consciousness of mankind has lived for centuries and continues to live today in a state of "amnesia" of thought, of "forgetfulness" of the original dimensions of Existence, overwhelmed by the "somnolence" of current thought, of "reflective", "rational", "representative" thought, in a "strange confusion of planes", a prisoner of the abominable and fatal prejudice - inaugurated by Plato and Aristotle, continued by Descartes and Hegel and going up to the contemporary "logistics" - that the "representation" or "contemplation" of existing reality (das Seiende) would also mean contact with the authentic and original "Existence" (das Sein), ignoring the fundamental truth that the "predicates" of existing reality are not the moment and attributes of the original Existence.
