attention towards them. We only need to identify where and how they manifest in our life already now.
Matter, Space and Time form the (material) environment of our consciousness. • Matter - is well known to us. It is the substance of all
kinds of bodies, constantly moving because of its inherent qualities of attraction and repulsion and composed of energy-elements of extremely small dimensions. Space - enables material representation, expansion and contraction of the other elements. Time - enables the experience of consecutive events.
In the West we picture time as a uniform line that comes from an infinite past to run into an equally infinite future. In these gigantic masses of past and future the present appears to play such minute part, it seems almost a miracle that we perceive it at all.
Sure, it's easy to fix appointments with this time-line model, yet the time we encounter in our very personal life is far more elastic and has little to do with rigid.. constant intervals: -
The minutes we wait for a root-canal treatment at the dentist's appear to us like hours, and hours spent with a person we deeply love seem mere minutes in the end.
For our very personal life we judge time by the mood and intensity of what we experience, not by what watches count.
