ANAGRAM CXX.

                      Heidegger tries to know what Being is, what

                      It means to exist, and as “matter” is impossible

                      To know, his whole investigation ends in the

                      Same question: We have to think about Being.

5                    Santayana knows that “matter” is impossible to

                      Know, because to name “matter” one has to use

                      An essence (“matter”) which is what “matter” is

                      Not. So Santayana uses metaphors like flux, or

                      Whirlpool, but knowing that those essences are

10                  Only approaches to what “matter” is. He uses

                      Also the essence “substance” to point to what is

                      Matter-Form, the basis of all life from which we

                      Spring. The mystery of “matter” cannot be solved,

                      And Santayana goes to investigate how can we be

15                  Spiritual and find happiness in life being material

                      Beings. Heidegger does not care for perception, but

                      For Being. His whole philosophy is talking about a

                      Mystery which cannot be solved. I think Santayana,

                      As a naturalist, makes more sense philosophically

20                 Than the existentialist. The point of life is to have fun

                      And enjoy while one is alive. The ontology of Santayana

                      Talks of spirit being fed by “matter” giving voice to

                      Essences, the one by Heidegger of the mystery of Being.

                      Santayana was a naturalist who was satisfied with

25                  Saying that “matter” was the basis of life; Heidegger

                      Was an existentialist who was never satisfied with the

                      Mystery of Being, and ended being a mystic.
