(Above) Jeanne
Calment, the
oldest French
woman. There is
a period of a
century between
these two
photographs.
(Middle) Naty
Revuelta, in
youth and
old age.
(Below) Everybody
experiences the changes
seen in these pictures. The
process of ageing is the
clearest evidence that we
are living in a temporary
world. Man comes into this
world, grows to adulthood
and old age and then dies.
Yet, only the body
experiences this irreversible
process. The soul, on the
other hand, lives forever.
