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

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. |

If time is an illusion, how do we schedule lunch?

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

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...

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???

Actually they get hungry because they ran out of the last lot of food, and the body is ready for more. This can take varying lengths of time. There may be no relation between this physiology and time. It is quite possible that time is still irrelevant to this process, but we are conditioned to see it as relevant. A.. |

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!

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

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.

i can't say i intentionally experiement with time ... i feel that slowly ... time itself has been teaching me something of significance ...
that it doesn't exist ... this began many years ago ... had to refrain from wearing watches as every part of me would race with anxiety ... i couldn't handle it any longer ... what i have come to experience ... is that time is something we had given birth to ... time is a limitation ... just like many of the other boundaries we have placed before and around us ... wrapped our selves in ... time is not ... natural ... time is not within us ... time is without us ... slowly ... the greater the truth of the time concept began to break down for me ... the more i transcended it ... experiencing life via instinct and intuition ... seconds ... minutes and hours ... days ... months and years ... schedules ... sure i know and feel them to remain ... but i feel them to be not of who i really am ... not of my core essence ... not of what is natural ... and i'll make it to an app't when i need to ... but things are very different now ... i do so but i give time very little priority anymore ... i love the days when i can just be ... do what i want ... when it feels right to do so ... simply working from within ... this is what feels true and right these days ... many years ago i remembered being so governed by time ... oh my goodness ... what if i don't get there on time ... what if this or that doesn't happen on time ... heaven forbid ... what if i forgot to do something ... on time ... then the barriers of such began to crumble ... it is now that i get just as much done ... if not more ... and SO MUCH more effortlessly ... if i do so from within ... everything just seems to get done and work out fine ... and then ... i sit and go wow ... where did time fly ... ![]() it is because i am living from the heart i believe ... the heart being within ... not living by some clock ... from without ... within is natural ... feels right ... i feel we will be living more fully ... from the beat of our hearts ... and days that i feel to not do too much then hey ... those days too i feel now have much significance as the body speaks it needs to just be ... ![]() it is when the barrier of time began to fade for me ... that i began to jump realities as well ... experiencing the overlap of dimensions ... as one ... transcending this limitation we have labelled as time ... i know without a doubt now ... for my self ... that time does not exist ... we have made it so ... and it has governed us ... which is not such a negative thing as it does streamline the workings of this world ... but in doing so ... we have forgotten that we also have an inner clock per se ... we dismiss what feels true and right within and live accordingly so ... and this is not so beneficial ... then we end up living life experiences of pretense ... of falsehoods ... of another's time clock ... not lives of truth and reality of what really is ... for our selves ... because we have dismissed what our inner selves speak ... i remember a few years ago actually feeling other realities flowing and overlapping into what i thought was and could only be ... and time ... as i thought was ... and the power it had ... slowly began to fade ... i had so many experiences with that ... or 'time experiments' ... which opened up so much more for me ... beyond time ... into space ... and what is real ... and what is not what it appears to be ... this truth of time had to be one of the most profound teachings for me ... and continues to be so ... i have learned so much as really ... when we begin to understand ... through feeling ... that time is not of the essence ... that BEing is of the essence ... EVERYTHING begins to reveal itself ... because yet again ... another barrier has been taken down ... sure we'll have to continue adhering to schedules and such ... but i feel daily life will be so much different coming up ... the emphasis of being more sovereign ... we DO have the ability to wake up when we want to ... be somewhere when we need to be ... without clocks everywhere ... we have these abilities within our selves ... and this is just the beginning ... it is about TRUSTING that we do ... and going with the flow ... of what feels true and right within ... time for me to go ... ![]() ![]() |
