TIME
Our attention is often tied up with time. We have deadlines to meet, planes and trains to catch. Our attention may be occupied with when we need to leave or how long something will take. If we can't manage time, we quickly run into problems. For this reason it is worth looking at what time actually is.
What is time? Time is a man-made creation that measures change.
Human beings coined the term 'season' to represent a growth cycle for a crop - a period of change. On a smaller scale, we decided that a 'day' would represent a period of light and a period of dark - another measure of change. We built clocks to record seconds that make minutes that turn to hours, days, weeks and years. These are all measures that we have developed. It is fair to say therefore, that time is our creation.
But before the period of time we call a year was broken down into seasons, there was simply change. The physical world changed and evolved regardless, as it always has. We introduced the concept of time to framework this change.
Time is not something you can hold in your hands. It does not consist of energy, it is a concept. Everything in the physical world is made up of energy and energy is in constant motion, therefore the physical world is always in a constant state of change - it never stops.
In reality time exists only by agreement. Because we all agree to live by this concept, it exists. As children we do we not worry about time because we have not been taught the concept. We are therefore free of its constraints.
You can be cause over time by increasing your rate of change. If you fit more change into a given period then you are cause over the restrictions of time. When you think "I don't have time to do something", increase your rate of change and the time becomes avaliable.
To do this, you need to be detached from the energy that constitutes the physical. You can get this detachment through Energy Conversion Meditation. |
