What is eternal now?

In this 4 dimensional world we experience the 3 dimension of space and that of time. May be there is a dimension higer than this that is called the 5th dimension. In this dimension space and time are not intertwined. But seperate.

OK having said that, in the 5th dimension, we see ourselves as an audience, living our desire. The desire is a part of our infinite self. While in our current existence we are only experiencing ourselves as a actor. Because we see ourselves sequentially.

Just as sex and food is an act, so is self realization an awakening that "I" am all of this and that.

Heres another example. Imagine a mirror. Imagine a mirror within a mirror. I think , there are 13 mirrors in total. Right now we see ourselves in a 4 dimensional mirror. May be with meditation we can see ourselves in mirror 5(audience). May be we are on a journey to mirror 13. Which is God.

My thoughts are based on from my own recent limited experience. Please feel to free, your experience. Based on yoga or meditation or simple living.

OK, I just has an idea: imagine a balloon. On the surface you have two dimensions right, because it's flat. If an ant walked on the balloon, you would say the ant's three dimensional, and surface of the balloon is still two. However, zooming out shows the balloon is also three. But, then the balloon is on the earth, which is also three. However, the Earth resides on a curved spacetime which could be considered to be three, but it's kinda not. Imagine this spacetime is a massive balloon. Is this balloon 3D? I'm loosing track. My point is though, that if you made a tunnel in the balloon which our Earth sites on, then maybe that tunnel is the sixth dimension. But then, a tunnel branching off that tunnel would also be on the sixth dimenion, but maybe not. Like, what if a tunnel took you to a lower dimension. Maybe this is the seventh.

Ultimately though, we only have five in my opinion. All the others are just smaller or larger, and hence reside in the fifth dimension as stated above. Make any sense?

Eternal Now is that all is light. The moment we see the light, it branches and some would say, forms matter. The moment this happens is the now. What we see, is what we think of as moving though time, but really, it's just one ball of light forming what we see.

Another way of looking at it, is that time doesn't exist. If you were travelling through the universe, how would you measure time? Apparantly crystals can help keep time, but if you didn't know time existed, then why would you make time out of crystals?

The Eternal Now could also be said to transcend our world. In our world, we have sunset/sunrise/seasons. Outside, all is relative. If you were on a planet that had a 2 Earth hour day would you only need sleep for 3o mins? Or would you sleep for four days? The Eternal Now recognises that time is an illusion we use to understand life.

I think what you're referring to is frequency dimensions? Living in the spiritual realm compared to our material one? Well, what if there is hihger? The Eternal Now is another example of us living every moment of existance in an overlapped fashion. Nothing is really sequential. Reality is everything all at once. God has allowed us to view things sequentially in order to experience the cause and effect. Without sequence, these mean nothing. So, in this example, you could say "spirits" are just us in the future/past/other time altogether looking through the dimensions at our world. They could even be living on other planets as we speak communicating through our three dimensions by way of any other. Filters are awesome.

Self realization is a never ending "act". We always change, and hence, always strive to understand the new us.

I found (when I could do it) that meditation was great in escaping the material realm. You can feel your mind expand until you no longer feel it. Usually at that point I would stop, but I could sense the infinite. I'm not ready yet to increase this awareness. How are you going with meditating?

I'd love to know at what stage anyone is with their chakras? Is it a linear thing, or do you go through all at once? There's a post around here I wrote that said releasing the kundallini energy too early can be disatrous, so it should not be taken lightly.

Very interesting thoughts and I really need quietness to contemplate what you have said. I am not getting it of late. Would revisit it, I am teeming with ideas and would like to expound on what you said.

Hmmm...these are just my imaginations. I haven't experienced it to say, this is what it is. Mind could be really deceiving sometimes.
