Experimenting with Time?
I read this today @ http://www.therainbowscribe.com/thefinalquadrant.htm.
Quote:
My family is doing it's own little Time experiment as no one in our household is bound by a schedule. So, for a couple of months now we have been going to bed and waking without a clock. We eat whenever we feel hungry and we don't make scheduled plans unless absolutely necessary. Almost everything is on the fly. The kids seem much, much happier. For me, there's an obvious change. The amount of time I spend thinking of the past or future has plummeted. Such a difference from just 6 months ago when probably 95% of my life was spent doing this. Anyway, I think we all feel that time is speeding up. Even the most 'asleep' people I know are feeling this. I'm just curious if anyone else has been experimenting. |

"Time seems to stand right still, in a child's world it always will." Moody Blues
It's always right now. Time is an illusion. Finding oneself at a point in time or in space is illusory. Boundless consciousness is Reality. |

Re: Experimenting with Time?
If time is an illusion, how do we schedule lunch?

Re: Experimenting with Time?
Your being is perpetually a cycle of enormous activity that your mind encapsulates into one thing.
Similarly, the mind encapsulates time into segments. Most fundamentally, the beginning of my life to the end, equals "my" time. But it's always right now, in Reality. Time is similar to a calendar, people agree on the measures, similar to boundaries between nations, the boundaries don't really exist, neither is there a boundary in time. Reality is boundless and immeasurable, though, infinite in all directions. |

Re: Experimenting with Time?
This is why I don't wear a watch... I don't wear a watch yet I'm always early for everything... I usually don't know what day it is because I just count how many days I've worked, then I know I have 3 off and it starts all over. I hate time and I especially hate daylight savings time... Yuck! Such restrictions on my freedom... All of ours really What do you think it would be like if the whole world realized time is irrevelant... but love, understanding, creativity, free energy and true knowledge was VERY relevant? What if you had all the time in the world to do all that you never learned to do? Build a garden, share with your neighbors, travel, learn a trade or skill and again... share with your neighbors... Freedom from our 'timed' schedules to be able to do what we want, when we want because it's abundant and because we can!... We only need to choose a simpler life without time or money. Remember that means no holidays however... No holidays because EVERY day is a holiday!!!
Sorry didn't mean to sound like Obama there with the 'We can!' |

We think alike on that Angel. It frustrated me my entire life that people had all these set ways of acting on certain days, puppet show stuff...

Re: Experimenting with Time?
Scarab... That's just a natural cycle and has nothing to do with time. Leaves don't fall on specific days at a specific time during that day... It just happens cyclically (Is that a word? If not it's still fun to say )

OH. You want to break it down to specific days. When do the swallows go to San Juan Capistrano? Groundhog Day? Those two came to mind off the top of my head. I could find more if necessary. |

Re: Experimenting with Time?
Normally I wouldn't condone feeding the beast here...
However, if a child grows up in the jungle having never known a thing about time.... would he never grow hungry.... No... he would eat when his brain tells him "hey lets get something to eat".... depending on what he ate... it would take a certain amount of energy to digest his food until he became hungry again.... what does any of this have to do with time???

Re: Experimenting with Time?
There doesn't necessarily have to be a 'time' to eat... Just eat when you're hungry. I don't care what time of day it is, sure I'll have breakfast before dark and dinner when I get hungry... which will be later but I never know what time and I don't really care what time... it's when I'm hungry!

Re: Experimenting with Time?
Personally... didn't think to research it because I highly doubt that groundhogs specifically come out of their hole on feb 2 of each year, but wait I will look it up

Re: Experimenting with Time?
Here you go... I don't see anywhere where it specifically says Feb 2nd is the day groundhogs come out... I do read that they hibernate for 3 months yes, they also say they wake up early Feb... That could mean the 1st, 3rd or 4th... who knows perhaps depending on the weather it could be way earlier or later... Who knows and who cares, it just happens.
