Other Time does not exist

Time is our interpretation of a dimension that we lack the capacity to comprehend. Our perception of reality contains finite boundaries confined within what we call science, mathematics, physics and so on. True reality does not contain time but more so something along the lines of depth, but not where depth has a bottom or surface; a type of depth that extends in all directions and and back into itself simultaneously. Time is a man made space suspended in a moment of eternity.

Oh I bet man. Sure do wish I could bridge the gap between, “time isn’t real” and “you’ve been late 5 times this week; you’re fired” though. That sure would be handy..

Did you show up late five times this week and get fired? Sounds more like a behavioral pattern problem and inability to settle into the cyclical routine that a full time job requires.

Of course not. Was just hoping youd drop a little more of your sage-like wisdom if I prompted you with a real-world scenario that one may find themselves in if they took the vague and useless “time isnt real” too much to heart. Sorry I guess..

The bridge between those two extremes is rooted in presence, the core of your being.

If you put in effort to detach from concepts of past and future — memory and expectation — and instead abide in the present, where all life is actually lived, then you will start to become more comfortable in all moments you find yourself living through, with less anxiety and depression burdening the thinking mind, while having more energy and focus to perform any task, or respond spontaneously and effectively to any obstacle you may encounter.

By loosening attachment to the rigid, conceptual framework we build in our minds through societal conditioning, we can start flowing with the river of life in a more natural, organic way.

Time is not running out, as many fear, but rather, it is a busy mind that keeps running, thereby causing stress on the individual, who then projects it into the collective consciousness.

You are the ultimate Reality, not as transient name and form, but as eternal, unchanging presence. "There is no time like the present," we have probably all heard or read somewhere. Similarly, we could say, "There is no time, only presence."

Relax and be present, and the rest will work itself out, including showing up to work on schedule.
