| Abstract | ||
| Nature has always been the most fundamental ground for humanity’s encounter with existence and establishing a relation to it. Such an encounter may take a conceptual form, mediated through the mind (the subject), in which case nature is reduced to a mere object, framed and interpreted through conceptual methods and theoretical structures. Yet, another mode of encounter with nature exists: an existential engagement grounded in presence and communion, one that transcends mental and theoretical constructs. This mode of encounter serves as a reminder of the thinking of existence and of the truth of being within existence—namely, that truth emerges from phenomena themselves, by and of their own accord, rather than through concepts imposed upon them by human cognition. Employing a qualitative content analysis approach, the present study examines this existential relation to nature and being in Bijan Elahi’s poetry collection Didan (Seeing), drawing upon Heidegger’s existential thought. The findings demonstrate that nature functions as the realm of the immediacy of existence, and that the nature-oriented poetic language of Elahi provides a medium for disclosing the truth of existence | ||
