Cover Story: Dipesh Chakrabarty describes the problem of climate change as, in part, one of temporal incommensurability; as a rupture in personal human time that reveals the vast impersonal scale of the planetary-geologic, confronting us with the very limits of our imaginative capacity. But while the specifics of climate change may be new, human engagement with deep time is not. Animated by the conviction that Buddhist literature contains robust theoretical ideas that can enrich philosophical thinking, this essay brings select Buddhist concepts to bear on the problem of temporal incommensurability, proposing ways we might differently conceptualize the relationship between the personal and the planetary as we face this moment of acute ecological precarity. View this paper
