Looking for meaning as an existential task

Abstract

Taking into account Heidegger´s thoughts we wonder about a meaning of life which gives us a wide comprehension of itself without reducing it to formal questions such as: love, power, knowledge, science, religion, arts and politics, among others. To achieve that, we need an hermeneutical approach designed by Heidegger as Dasein because it deals with entities which are not only there in the world but immerse in their obligation to be. This situation helps the Dasein to be open to the capacities of being. We leave open the questions about meaning and being for a further study.
