Summary/Abstract: The concept of conscience is among those rare ones which Heidegger takes in the sense close to that which they have traditionally. The conceptual net, which establishes the concept of conscience, belongs within the realm of practical philosophy (guilt, choice, decision etc.), although Heidegger explicitly rejects ethical approach towards the conscience in favor of ontological. This article tends to present difficulties of that approach which, after all, disables the mediation of the vulgar and existential interpretation of conscience.
