Summary/Abstract: The Japanese zen tradition and in the Heidegger’s philosophy delicately interconnect with the consideration on the external nature and the contemplation of the human existence. The author relates Heidegger’s philosophical concept of Gelassenheit with the Japanese practices of zoan and koan. The author also compares the totality of nature in the zen tradition with the Heidegger’s Sein and with his late oriental traditions studies. On the other hand, the author opposes Japanese cultural logic, spontaneity, and transitivity to the Heidegger’s abstract thought and to the German philosopher’s inclination to the Eurocentric reflections.
