Experimenting with Time?
 

I read this today @ http://www.therainbowscribe.com/thefinalquadrant.htm.

Does anyone have experience pushing these boundaries? If so, I would love to hear your stories.

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. :original:

Here's a recent coast to coast am show discussing time shift's so on good info if you'd like to watch.

"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.

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 :thumbdown: 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!!! :naughty:
Sorry didn't mean to sound like Obama there with the 'We can!' :wink2:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

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?
 

When do trees drop their leaves?

Or is that an illusion too?

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

It's always right now.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Yes. No illusion there.

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 :wink2:)

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

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?
 

Children sense/know the eternity of now, that's why it's SO hard to drag them into measured time.

They are spiritually wise, and the adults beat them into submission, cram them into the "real" world that is phony bologna. :original:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

They know when it's lunch time.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

We think alike here as well New Age Messiah :thumb_yello:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

No they don't. They know when they're hungry.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

How bout just eating when you feel like it? I hated having to wait until lunchtime or recess when I was a kid... I'd either be starving or not hungry at all but I'd always had to wait for that damn bell :nono:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Misery makes you stronger.

You'll just have to wait, hurry up we're going to be late.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

They know when it's time to eat.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

You're the same guy that got banned. :original:

they know when they're hungry. Time to eat is a fixed time that has nothing to do with being hungry, unless you happen to be hungry.

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???

Who I am in real life is of no consequence to you.

Kids get hungry after enough time has elapsed since their last meal.

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! :thumb_yello:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

How come nobody can answer about the swallows or the groundhogs?

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 :wink2:

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.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Yes, it does. Always around the same TIME.

How about the swallows. Did you research that too?

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

No, not going to bother cause you aren't understanding me so even if I researched it I know it would be a waste of my 'time'... Although I have no problem agreeing to disagree :thumb_yello:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Scarab is an antagonist, he got banned under another name a few days ago.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Not an antagonist. More of a critical thinker.

I have noticed you and the angel there making reference to 'wasting time' and 'a few days ago'.

Or is that illusion?

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

I didn't see that, don't like to see it but didn't feel that in this thread until you mentioned he was the guy that got banned... I was little sad to see that but again I missed the whole banned thing so I will not be making judgement... :original:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Oh Scarab... we all have different illusions and yours may not be the same as ours and that's ok... Which is why we can agree to disagree :wink2:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

You're a critic, all you want to do is criticize, and jab and poke and needle and basically you're up to no good.

Whatever.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Believe it or not, I have an open mind.

Show me (in simple terms and your own words) how time is an illusion. Please explain how the examples from nature I gave fit into the illusion and also please explain how the illusion applies to the limited days in a man's life.

I do want to learn. It's just that, at the surface, it sounds like bunk.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

It sounds bunk because you're not open to seeing the opposite of what you know or think you know or perhaps were taught... Once you master that the possiblities are endless... or should I say 'timeless'

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

If you don't want to explain it, that's OK too. Maybe somebody else can?

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

I don't know if scarab is necessarily saying you are wrong.

I think he just wants you to explain why you think that, if you understand why or are just parroting another new age bullet point.

I'm just guessing though on that. Maybe I'm not understanding either.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Best way to explain it is it's like when you go on vacation... You often lost track of the time, you see it's day or night but you never know what time nor day it is... It doesn't matter, it just IS. Does that help?

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

I'm not taking it as wrong, more like different views and that's ok... I have no problem with that whatsoever. Just find it hard to express what I know in that sense, trying but obviously having difficulties and that is not Scarab's fault. If anything it's mine :wink2:

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

Honestly. No.

Because during that vacation, if you're flying on an airplane and staying at a hotel, taking tours or doing activities, there are check in times, waiting times, check out times, show times, tour times etc.

Even if you walk into the wilderness for vacation, there is a time to leave, a time to sleep, a time to eat and when you return you will have spent x days and/or y hours in the wildernes.

Time will have passed.

Re: Experimenting with Time?
 

The point is... What if there wasn't?
