Thinking after Heidegger or how to exit the interpretive age of the mind

Any interpretation, no matter how free, is unable to provide a new birth for ourselves. There are transcendent limits to each interpretation, as it lives through pastoral revolutions without a real promise. Every interpreter is a free mind, but deep down remains imprisoned by the model of the ancient monotheistic shepherd, faithful to the meaning as a spiritual estate or an ethical royal property for the private, which dominates a stockpile of meaning that cannot be disclosed to the public, lest it turn into sedition or into an everyday debate without authenticity. Therefore, liberation from within cannot occur if freedom itself is not free, that is, pastoral and not civil. Only translation can heal us from the need for pastoral interpretation, meaning tyranny: a translation that promises nothing and promises everything, because it is a civil act open to many possibilities, methods, and forms of expressive achievement of what we invent in our private worlds of meaning and what we share with others of values of freedom that are capable of universality.
