Resumen
MUNOZ, Adrián. Kālacakra: Shortlies Considerations on Time. Acta poét [online]. 2012, vol.33, n.2, pp.151-165. ISSN 2448-735X.
This paper calls for a comparative reading of both the Buddhist conception of time and a branch of Western phenomenology. With special emphasis on the Madhyamaka Buddhist school, it discusses the way in which fugacity and impermanence are similarly discussed by French philosopher Gaston Bachelard in his L 'intuition de l'instant. In both cases, the stress lies on the fact that duration is but a mental construct lacking true, absolute reality, while at the same time the human being is subjected to hopes of transcendence which, in turn, engender disillusion and delusion.
