In case you kids were ever wondering about my moniker. Here~ sein (German pronunciation: [ˈdaːzaɪn]) is aGerman word which literally means being there orpresence (German: da - there; sein - being) often translated in English with the word existence. It is a fundamental concept in the existential philosophyof Martin Heidegger particularly in his magnum opus Being and Time. Heidegger uses the expression Dasein to refer to the experience ofbeing that is peculiar to human beings. Thus it is a form of being that is aware of and must confront such issues as personhood, mortality and the dilemma or paradox of living in relationship with other humans while being ultimately alone with oneself.
