What if your greatest fear isn’t death, but truly living? This video explores Martin Heidegger’s idea of Being-toward-death and how our obsession with avoiding the end traps us in inauthentic lives. Through the metaphor of The Chess Players painting and Heidegger’s philosophy, we uncover why accepting death is the key to living with freedom, authenticity, and courage.
