There was something significant in a Japanese Story about the proces of individuation from confronting the possibility of death through being stranded in the Pilbara desert. What was significant was the way that the process of individuation lead back to the world of people. This individuation became the basis for living in the world with others, rather than being cut off from the world.
On Heidegger's account the hermeneutical circle brings us back into the world from where we had started before going into the desert. While death individualizes and in the process discloses the potentialities of being with others. So authentic being is a modifcation of they selve through individuation.
As a
modification of the they-self, authentic being does not remove itself from the circle of the others but disentangles itself from being "lost" within a non-individuated "they."
