Heidegger

Dear Tudor;
This sounds like a good (intelectual) explanation for the transubstantiaton
of the body of Christ during the R.C. Mass. But insofar as this is a feeling
event
and not a mental cogitation its existence is insured but which is hardly true
for your allegedly transcendent dasein, not, perhaps, until Heideggerian
doctrine is one day deployed in a ritual method.
Sincerely;
Bernard

An act of existence, meaning that Dasein participates in the existence of
the objects it contemplates, not simply perceives it and thinks/talks about
it.

Which means that it transcends a given discourse (theory) on existence, not
the Existence itself (as really-metaphysical existent).

Greetings,

Tudor
