The Nature of Time

The observation that time and world outlive us and hence are not a function of our perception and they are absolute is partially correct. But there is absolute physical world that outlives our perception but the time we feel outlives us is just our creation.

Time does not exist on its own. It is created by processes physical, psychological, cosmic and social etc., Time is essentially having two existences: physical, psychological. The physical existence is the result of transformation of energy and or change of phase of matter by aid of energy as one of movement, change and becoming (growth or degeneration).

We mistake energy transformation as time and its passage. Actually processes are happening (changes in, to matter and energy) and we are considering them to be happening due to passage of time. We can easily see a plant grows but not a rock because of passage of time.

Plant growing in inbuilt and environment helps. The same is true for degeneration of plant or life systems. Passage of time is our counting. We can see all time measuring devices have an energy transformation going on based on some physical change and we measure it with clocks which have no relation to universal passage of time. Actually there is no universal time as we feel and measure.

Psychological time is our perceptive relation of our mistaken passage of time. We can see day and night of 24 hours duration are formed so regularly on earth only of entire solar system and what happens else wherein the galaxies and universe is beyond our perception and comprehension.

Biological time in living systems is tuned to this 24 hour cycle on earth. When this rhythm is disturbed - like air travel from one continent ot other continent having different time zones like jet lag are examples of this.

Actually one date exists for "two days" on our planet due to revolution of earth and the dates in Australia and the USA differ by one day. In reality our calculation is responsible for this.

Psychological time is divided as phases of mind and mental energy transformations. In the absence of mental energy transformations which are our thoughts, we feel time-transcendence. Passage of time is our feeling.

Past is our memory and future is our imagination, fear, anxiety, apprehension etc.  in thought forms. Our pain, unhappiness, happiness are recollection of past events with egoistic mind as thought forms in the present.

The present is actually a continuously changing perception and awareness every one tenth of a second.

After all thisI am compelled to mention that our awareness and understanding of nature of time is not complete from scientific, societal and philosophical points of view. Our idea of time is as enigmatic as our idea of God.

Time does not exit and has no role in either determining our lives or any processes happening in the universe. Time is only created by various kinds of processes. We perceive it wrongly as influencing our lives. Passage of time is our mistaken notion and identity.

As said above passage of time is ongoing of processes physical, psychological (with egoistic mind) or cosmic.

For ordinary people this much explanation of nature of time is not necessary. They can be left to their notion and ideas about nature of time as existing.

It is only for philosophers, enlightened and enthusiastic minds and intellectuals interested in knowing various phenomenon and seekers of knowledge that we must tell all that i narrated above. We cannot determine intellectual matters to the comfort of normal people.

The universal time we are keeping as 16-02-2018 etc. has no relevance, meaning or use outside our planet and completely alien  and not applicable to millions of galaxies, solar systems there in  and rest of the universe.

Time does not exist independent of perception.

Writers have lost their voices

It is becoming highly impossible and risky even to write a single sentence. Writers have to fight various groups representing various castes, gender, region, religion and the like for even normal things.

Every sentence is offending one of are many of this caste, that gender, this region that community, this religion, that ideology and the like. Writers are left with nothing to write about. There is no free speech. I am not talking Padmavat or murders of writers; I am writing about ordinary writers.

The agitations for every silly thing are throttling the pens of writers. Writers are also expected to identify the ills in society so that remedies can be invested and implemented. But fanaticism has become a culture and cults are formed around them by vested interests.

Writers lost their voices.

Prayer is wire-less and wordless; is full of faith and heartfelt!

God is the Glow of Mind. HE functions as and through consciousness and awareness of mind.

Laxity in punishment

Laxity in Punishment for violating law and order and rules of the land.

Because no politician, beaurocrat, minister or corporate big wig is punished for one's crime civil, financial, relating to bribe or any offence, many ordinary citizens are also trying to behave like the above criminals and are not respecting law and order and are misbehaving and are not fearing any government wing.

The laxity enjoyed by political class, government employees and corporates 
from law and order and punishment, the rest of the citizens are stopping respecting government or its law and order arms.

The laxity enjoyed by political class, government employees and corporate ... is infectious and many are following that path to the detriment of country’s progress and citizens’ welfare and well-being.

Virtual Media and Virtual Predictions

Estimations made based on goings on on twitter, Facebook, What's app and like virtual sites will be as virtual. Especially the outcome of 2019 parliamentary elections.

Vast majority of Indians make up their minds based on their experiences and emotions and their own calculus.

Vast majority of Indians are non-active members of above mentioned virtual sites. And vast majority of Indian journalists of Multi-Media are biased for one party or other and they very rarely meet common citizens. They base their predictions based on their wishful thinking rather than reality.

Love

Love happens naturally. Love happens as south breeze touches; as flowers bloom; as moon-light cools; as sunshine warms; as affectionate and dear touch soothes; as rivers flow; as currents swirl; as waves drench; as rains pour; as bliss fills; as peace descends and as Divinity obliges and illumines. Loving is a delightful human trait. The one who is not drenched by rain and who has not fallen in love does not exist.

Problems

Most of the problems in our life are imagined problems and thus do not exist in reality.. They are projections of mind in disturbance or confusion or ignorance or innocence or misguidance or wrong perception. Management of mind takes care of them and "solves" them.

Running parties

running parties based on family hierarchy is the conscious adaptation of democracy in our country. Our voters cannot recognize any party other than family set up or dictatorial style in parties. The undeserving expectations of the have-nots, castes and communities on social justice plank , and the pampering of them by family run political parties with freebies, concessions, is bane of our democracy.

Duration and Metrical Aspects of Time

The nature of time when studied reveals two aspects of itself – durational (period) and metrical (counting). We are aware of both these aspects in our daily worldly and scientific usage. We have clocks, watches, calendars, almanacs…. to monitor and measure time as a duration and flow.

The durational aspect of time comes into picture when the period of a process concerning matter or anti-matter or energy in space is compared with an external uniform process- the process going on in a time-measuring device. Actually processes, natural or non-natural, are initiated and go on guided by natural forces and cease to happen because of natural forces. It is known to us that the nature of such natural forces varies depending on the size and form of matter and the domain of activity and magnitude of energies and time-periods involved. So far we have identified four such natural forces- the gravitational, electro-magnetic, strong- and weak- nuclear forces. These four natural forces cause movement (transition), change (in phase and state of matter and form of energy) and becoming (ex: growth of organism) to matter and/or energy.

We utilize the durational aspect of time also to ‘record’ the periods of various processes taking place in the universe, which none of us need experience. We have identified many periods of happenings, from the period of nuclear transition (10-23 sec) to the age of the universe (1017 sec). The machines developed by us can ‘experience’ the durations of happenings whose magnitude is in tiny fractions of a second. The machines can follow and monitor such durations. The interval between two moments, the beginning and cessation, is the duration of that process or ‘absolute period’ of that process.

Time, in the sense of instants of time, is the numerable or metrical aspect of time. These instants serve exactly the same purpose as page numbers do to a book. Imagine that a book is bound properly in the order of narration and the page numbers are not put. Does the absence of page numbers on the pages of such a book change, alter or influence the course of narration? No. The page numbers just facilitate us for quick reference. Similar purpose is served by instants of time which facilitate us to refer to what had happened prior to our presence, what is happening in our presence and what will happen later to our presence. As individual numbers do not have any other significance except for being in sequential order so also individual instants of time do not have any other significance than being the divisions of duration, of movement of earth round the sun or of the process going on in a clock.

Thus instants of time are just ‘numerals’ that are used to signify or characterize durations of various processes. This type of metrical aspect of time is the other sense in which time is understood. It is important here to realize that any movement, change or becoming concerning matter or anti-matter or state or form of energy create time. In other words time is caused by the processes, natural or non-natural.

A period is absent in the absence of a process. Duration is absent in the absence of a period. ‘Time’ is absent in the absence of duration. Thus time is missing in the absence of a process, natural or non-natural. Time is dependent on a natural or non-natural process for its being. It has no independent existence from the process or event or happening- physical, chemical, biological, psychological, cosmological, social, political or likewise. Such a physical existence as flow and period of a happening is the physical time. Thus the being and becoming of matter and energy is physical time.

Time takes various loci (paths - straight line, circle, reversal) of time while ‘flowing’. Ancient Indians proposed cyclic path. We all modern people are following the idea of Galileo that path of time flow is a straight line, i.e., linear passage of time.

The observation of them demonstrates that the locus of time-flow is none other than the course of the path and direction of the course of the process selected.

Actually there is no passage of time. There is only ongoing of processes involving changes to matter and energy.

Medals at Rio Olympics

Many Indians seem to be disappointed and worried that India is not winning any medals at Rio Olympics.

First the spirit of participation is to be given prominence and appreciated. Winning medals is secondary.

And when we expect our athletes and participants to win medals at such a tough international competition, we must compare the participants from among participating countries and their training and infrastructure facilities.

Our food habits are not in tune with international standards. And the genetic factor in body-build up is to be noticed. The athletes from other countries have suiting food habits and body strengths. The genetic factor gives them advantage in having healthy and strong bodies

And our attitude to allow our children to take sports as a career is not encouraging. Added to it our training and infrastructure facilities are so much below par to international standards and are highly inadequate. Still further we have interference of politicians at all levels of sports and competitions.

The recent behaviour of our sports' minister at Rio gives a taste of attitude of our government and people's representatives. 

Under these realities it is wise to appreciate and applaud the participation spirit of our athletes and players despite the insufficient and inefficient support given by sports bodies and representatives from governments and people.

I am happy our competitors are high in spirits under these circumstances. My salutations to their grit and spirit.

Let Indian sports persons get our encouragement and support for their participation. Let us not feel tension and be sad that Indian athletes are not winning any medals at Rio.

Being and Becoming of mind

External physical world, its internal mental impressions, internal phenomenal world, memory, ideas, understanding, experience, ego, thoughts, feelings, actions, interactions and reactions in and of body are cognitive objects of mind. Mind and its functions are cognitive objects of consciousness. If no mind and or its functions are, then consciousness is called pure consciousness. It is also called Being\Bliss\Peace\Silence. Existing mind and its functions are called Becoming. Being and Becoming are resting and functioning mind respectively.

**************

A Brief History time

A Brief History time, the book by Stephen Hawking discussed time from physics point of view only. View of other disciplines are completely missing. Thus that book is not a comprehensive treatment of nature and structure of time.
*********

Investing in human bonds

The jobs we do will take care of our financial and economical needs and desires. They cannot take care of our intellectual and emotional needs. Only proper, harmonious, near and dear bonds with our near and dear can take care of our intellectual, aesthetic and emotional needs. Our interest in fine-arts, scientific thought, spirituality will help us to evolve into a cultured human being. 

Neglecting or maintaining disharmony in our relationships will have disturbing affect on our mind, heart and makes life unlivable and unlovable. It is in our hands to keep harmony in our thought, word and deed which endears us to our near and dear. 

Harmonious human bonds are equally necessary as our financial earnings to have a fulfilling and serene life. We will neglect our near and dear and bonds with them at our peril.

Investing in human bonds is equally important and must as our financial investments for secured life in all aspects.

SPACE WITHOUT TIME

                                                                                                   

I have lost my SELF

Am void seeking fulfillment

Cheering and guiding

My Self had been;

A dancing stream,

Pretty and youthful love,

River full of current

Just as a river

Loses itself into the Ocean;

And a loving beautiful           

Maiden loses her’Self’

In the arms of her beloved

Is not lost my Self

As

A gem is lost

In a wild forest;

A companion warrior

In the battle field;

A love separated

By unkind fate;

Is lost my Self

The violent storms of Life

Devastated, broke and sank

My Self

Making it a debris

On the bed of life

A flower fully blown

A bud it became again

Which encompassed so much

Has become vacuum within

Dreams dried up

As summer streams

Thoughts became

Crossword puzzles

In the absence of

My Self

I am Space

Without Time.

A TIME-UNCONSCIOUS FLOW OF VACUUM

My mind is my beloved,

My identity and my essence;

When it is missing

I am perplexed

Am experiencing vacuum within

Friendships and passions no longer are delighting

Humor and sweet chats with dear ones are gone;

Pains, aches, disappointments in love

Are no more wrenching my heart;

Heart’s sweet rhythm and fast beats too are missing;

Gay abandon with my sweet hearts

Is no longer desired;

Their bewitching beauties

No more are angling;

The rise and set of thought forms

And flow of joys and blissful experiences,

All have ceased to happen

Now, when my mind has disappeared

Am deaf to sounds

Blind to sights

Insensitive to

Smells, sweet and bitter tastes,

Amorous and loving touches,

Cooling and warm hugs;

Am not able to differentiate between

Full-moon and new moon nights;

Among loving, indifferent and piercing looks

Perceptions, intuitions,

Languages,

Sciences, philosophies,

Experiences, insight, understanding

Contemplations, remembrances

Gained, stored and recollected

Have vanished in the absence of my mind,

The facilitator and companion of my life

                                                                                                                            

Now I am,

 Lord Krishna unable to play on flute

Lord Nataraja sans cosmic dance

Frozen Ganges devoid of flow and current

A lover who lost his sweet heart

A flow of vacuum

Unconscious of Time and its flow

WHAT IS PLEASURE?

Or the rise and fall of

Feeding the hungry be pleasure?

Can

Relieving the pain of

THE FLOW OF TRANQUILITY

When my mind merges with my SELF

Who am I? What is my Being?

Friendships and passions no more stir

Grief and aches no longer grip

It’s neither dream nor deep sleep

No sense of time but am aware

Nothing is in the awareness

Still completeness pervades

Within is like a serene lake

Without thought waves I am awake

Mind that has engulfed within

Disappeared as river in to the ocean

And as the youthful girl loses herself

In the embrace of her beloved

Streams of sense move in and as silence

When the mind dissolves itself in the SELF

Am an intuitive seer

A dynamic loving Being

A blissful awareness

A flow of tranquility
