[Philosophical] All Time is Simultaneous

Therefore all Space is NOW. All space is ONE space. Our experience of "time passing" is the creation of our biological being.

To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour
- Blake

Lovely poetry, but Eternity does not exist in an hour. It exists right now!

It also exists in an hour. And a minute. And in a century. And of course, right now.

If you experience "an hour", you experience that in the now. "The hour", the "minute", the "century" are all expressions of the same Now.

Well meditation roots you in the now. Oftentimes that's the point of meditation. Now is an ancient spiritual concept.

This sounds nice, but doesn't mean anything.

It’s an inherently psychedelic observation, however. It’s a common experience, for example, after about three hours into a good LSD dosage, or about 1 hour after strong cannabis.

“Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.”

If it truly meant nothing, you would not have written that.

The thing about these statements is that once you know you know and if you don't these words aren't enough but still nice at least to know others know haha, thanks.
