i remind myself of the connection sometimes by thinking about what i am connected to now, by touch and then forming a chain of all the things those things are touching and so on and so forth.
Another way is with light, considering how the light that reaches your eye reaches it and how it illuminates everything else you see.
The only problem i run into with the model is its sense of linear character in relation to time and its a practical issue rather than a philosophical one although that does have some bearing. seeing time as having a past and future and growing from a root source, could be seen to lock certain events, how i work is to have an eternal moment a now. There is no past or conception of the past that is not conditional to present circumstance, its the present circumstance that define that past and future. Its the eternal moment that changes past and future. Conscious time travel has to remain an option as does manipulation of the time stream perceptual realities. I guess the place i differ would be the tree has no past no future, its all happening now.
To give it a sense of conception and organisation i guess we place measurements upon it and that does make our complex society and selves easier to conceptualise and communicate about, but some of my experience tells me that this isnt taking place in time.
Because we bind ourselves to the notion that we grow up (well not much in my case) and we create a very linear self history and are taught to think about time as a linear process we proceed to model it that way.
Ill agree with movement to a certain extent, but then as suggested if concieve of the whole universe from the outside, without your interaction or conception it becomes a consistant stillness, no time, no growth, it just is isness. Bloody hard to expalin i hope somebody vaguely gets what i am on about. |
