Here is something to ponder... :-)

Is: The PAST..The PRESENT..and The FUTURE..
truly separate from each other..
Or are they perhaps all one, connected or linked by the tiniest millisecond,
or whatever time is meant to 'be'.. ??
If you joined all three..
Would this not be a "Present Eternity".. ??
A single moment of past,present and future which carries on like a frontierless ball of energy..
:-)
One mans sip is another mans gulp.. heh,heh..
A human's 'second' could be a year in space..
Or even an eternity to da aliens out there..
What is time without gravity.. Without a clock.. Without a life-expectation..
Without Love.. Without Light..
Without Life..?
What happens to time when we die, or perhaps reincarnate..Does time exist in a dream? Does time exist in the spirit world?
Does time exist..?

Love and Light to all,
x Chinelle x

Here are my thoughts on time:

The Semblance of Time -
Time, as we know it, is not real. It does not exist. It is a human-created concept. There is no time. Past, present, and future are all one in the same. You are living now, have lived, and will live all of your past, present, and future lives all at the same “time”...which is NOW. Now is the universal “time”. Everything is now. Everything that has been is now. Everything that is, is now. Everything that ever will be is now. Now is the only “time” that matters. What is time? What is the correct time? All over the world, time is different, hours, minutes, seconds are not the same, daytime and nightime....winter time and summer time...all are different. Your watch and my watch do not tell the same time. If time were real, an actual thing that existed of itself and without human thought of it, all time would be the same. In the other dimensions, all time is the same...all time is now. In our dimension, time is not all the same. Things begin and they end, they are birthed and they die. Not so in other dimensions. Nothing dies, nothing is born...everything just always is. Infinity. A circle. It never ends and it never begins...it just always is. You have always been. You will always be. You were not born, you will not die. Only here in this 3rd dimension of “Experience”, what we call Earth, can you live and die. It is one concept we come here to learn....beginnings and endings...broken circles...incomplete lives. Time is not real. If it were real it could be defined, not always be different on every watch, in every town, in every country, on every continent. Time can be manipulated. It is not constant. I can set my clock 10 minutes fast to make sure I’m always “on time”. Is it the “wrong” time. No. There is no right or wrong time. Time is not.

****

It was over a year after I read Linda's thought that "past, present & future were the same thing" that I finally understood. One day a revelation suddenly occured to me, and it is the belief I currently hold.

------------------
The unseen, the unknown, the mystery - this is what drives me; propels me forward on new journeys as dark corners of my mind are lit with the evergrowing bright light of my enlightened soul.

Thanks very much, Ra. It's from a journal entry (I posted it in For Yellow Wax & The Ants). I've been in love with this forum, and have been posting all over! It feels so good to have found kindred souls.

Yeah, that's part of the cool esoteric definition of non-linear time....but...
when I'm late for work, or my current love interest is late for a date, I have a totally different concept of time!
