  1. Respected Sir,
    I , Fayaz Ahmad from Kashmir, would like to express my great interest in reading Heidegger’s philosophy, intensively. Being and Time has literally captured me. I am in the process of still reading guide books about Being and Time. I also completed my German one year course for this purpose.
    My request to thy good self is that if you could please provide me the bilingual (German and English) pdf text of that interview ‘Only a God can save us’, by der Spiegel. That would be your most kindness.
    Thanking You
