Adolescence
by James Shammas (Age: 44)
copyright 06-20-2006


Age Rating: 18 to 127


The thoroughly human invention of Time-- consisting primarily of past and future-- can subject one to a life of slavery and misery. Since Time is essentially subjective and unreal, many spiritual traditions describe the personal suffering that takes place when an attachment to the concept occurs. Used properly however, an awareness of the lessons of the past can hasten one's path to transcendence or enlightenment, paving the way to a reasonable expectation of one's future. It can paradoxically teach us to embrace the ever- fickle, ever-changing present moment. No where is this done more brilliantly than in the work of Jorges Luis Borges, more tragically than in the novels of William Faulkner, and more poignantly than in Proust's "In Search of Lost Time." A gentle, though often painful, look back, and a clear, unforced look forward, can make one's path smooth and meaningful.
