When is time actually a boon? It is allegiance to this prinicipally human notion that creates the stress in one's life. But we can't live without it. Can we?
Does it -truly- exist? I think, ultimately beyond the essential human mind complex: No. We will never see it any other way however, until we transcend the barrier of Physicality to the Ethereal existence.
So what is time? How can we classify this thing, which also as Wiccans, affects even our rituals?
In summary - here's some food for thought I painstakingly constructed in my grimoire a while back, if anyone's interested. (tumbleweeds roll...)
‘Time’ is a human rationalization of perceived moments - our minds are the only things that actually place these ‘moments’ into sequence a.k.a. past/present/future. In a way, time is non-existent. Us humans, indeed all biological organisms, are bound by genetic timers that certainly take no notice of ‘time’ – only acknowledging an infinite, frozen state of ‘present-ness’.
All moments exist equally… yet we see events that unchangeably proceed from one another in direct sequence – so are we and the Universe itself all actually locked into a kind of stasis? When we work magick, do the fruits of our work already inperceivably exist already within a different dimension of reality? You could ask the same about changing pasts and futures. Time is only linear to our limited, cognitive observations. As for time being parallel; this would only be evident if truly, all forces existent in space-time adhered to not just the 3 known dimensions, but others as well, so perhaps the notion alone is parallel. It has been theorized that directly due to the way we observe ‘time’, such other dimensions may have existed alongside the others all along - but we simply cannot observe the dimension’s own version of dynamics (changing forces relative to time).
Overall; time is an –invention–. |
