Time ?
When we are born, people starts taking a note of time. Starting from hospital doctor, nurse and family members. They take a note of time and date. we live in a fragmentary world. And those fragments of life are defined by time. In each fragment of life there are multiple sub-fragments which are again defined by time limit.
Time defines the limitations. It indicates the starting point and ending point of something. Starting point might be ending point for someone and ending point may be the starting point for someone else. Hence Time can’t be owned by anybody or anything.
Is Time real? Time is not real but it is relative. We always have a point or object of comparison when we refer time. Patterns of a day is repetitive. We wake up with the Sun and we relax during dusk. This cycle is repetitive for most of the people across the geographies. Hence we live in a cyclical pattern and to track of each passing cycle or phase or activity we perform or any action, we need a reference point against which we can refer to across cycles. These cycles are defined and limited by time.
Is time the truth? Truth is not relative but time is. Truth is absolute. Across Time points across cycles, it remains the same. It does not change. Time is changing. It always changes and point of reference for everybody is different. It defines the change. Time defines constraints or limited quality of any living or non-living things.
Time is the source of all the conflicts created in our lives. Time is involved in each process of life and yet there’s no yesterday or no tomorrow known to the human mind but the present moment in which there’s no time concept. If we enquire if time is real or created by time psychologically to fulfil our desires? All the conditioning, information beliefs we’ve gathered over a period is relating to time. Does it have any relevance to the present moment? All the limited things which are known to human mind is time. All the known exists in time and unknowns in timelessness.
All the fears are because of the time which we don’t want to lose which is known to us and we fear the unknown which stops the continuity of known. Things which are physical in nature will once cease to exist. Timelessness is born once the know ceases to exist. It is born once everything that is known to mind dies with mind. Timelessness is born only in the present moment. You can’t be living or dying yesterday or tomorrow but in the present moment which is not defined by time. Present moment does not have a mechanical starting or ending and is realised later. Time is not truth but Truth is timeless.
Truth does not require continuity. Continuity of memory or information or knowledge that we’ve acquired in past or can be found in future. Most of the times, we seek comfort or satisfaction of our ego. We want to seek fruits and desires by moving from known to known which always was, is and will be limited as defined by time. Fruits, desires actually is in moving from unknown to unknown where your relevance to those fruits and desires rests.
Time is reason for all our hopes and desires which are born from the time to time out of past or from the time we are waiting for.
Timelessness is possible only when we die to the known!!
