Abstract
For Heidegger, as for existential psychology, our primary repression is death-fear. But since Being and Time misses `the return of the repressed' in symbolic form, Heidegger overlooks how future-oriented temporality can become `a schema for the expiation of guilt'. Heidegger's authentic and inauthentic ways of experiencing time are both reactions to the inevitable possibility of death. To see how time might be experienced without the shadow of death, Heidegger's approach is contrasted with the Buddhist deconstruction of time, which denies the commonsense duality between self and time.
