Being In Time - A 2nd Guide To Intuitive Way Of Living
By Lionel Yang August 2024
Preface
Being In Time arrived by chance as an elevated version of Martin Heidegger’s Being and Time. I have never deliberated to take on Heidegger as he has offered such an indisputable ontology for being unfolding in time. But strangely as it destined to be, perhaps I might have accidentally elevated his ontological limitations by giving it a metaphysical uplift. As it is the right hope to show that the ontology unfolding in time has self organized moral purpose.
In such that the intuitive way of life is the mutual self-organization and co-evolution between purpose and agency, between the ceaseless change of time and perpetuity of free will. There's purpose bestowed upon us that our agency is depending on in mutual self organized and co-evolved relations, novelty and complexity. Both the metaphysic and ontology of time unfold in purpose, consciousness and change and in being. The unifying reach is aspired desperately by both 21st century physicists and philosophers but both limited by the respective disciplinary boundary in methods and controls. Being in time could be the first pure intuition to trans-disciplinary paradigm needed to restore soberness from the mad obsession in juxtaposed conditioning and control of disciplinary boundary that's no longer about truth and its indivisibility.
Being in time might also provide salvation to secular psychology such as of Jung’s that pointing consciousness away from vital purpose and reduced to mere individuation of cultural subjectivity. Interestingly enough, both Heidegger and Jung were inspired formidably by Henri Bergson but both of them had failed to revolutionize philosophy and psychology respectively in entirety from their pioneering predecessors (Husserl and Freud) by ignoring the metaphysical implication of time in transformation of consciousness.
The combined work of Heidegger and Jung might have been the source of inspiration for intuitive version of AI in last century if they had worked out how memory would have corresponded with thought and understanding intuitively in time. However, the postmodern context they were in as well as for AI in last century had not warranted the synchronicity needed to think intuition as fundamentally and necessarily metaphysical.
Being in time could also inspire a new kind of strategic thinking in businesses and organizations to see change as time unfolding in emergence of purpose and consciousness for both the entity and the agency, not of control and conditioning that we know could never work against the increased novelty and complexity of relational dynamics.
It is now becoming more probable that Intuitive AI is a real possible alternative to current pre-trained trajectory. Intuitive AI might inspired AI developers to think in completely different approach to synthesize intelligence ontologically that would get to know its knowing in thought & understanding as time unfolds in purpose and in agency, rather than based on a fixed sets of control and conditioning. Although the time+ontology of Intuitive AI could fracture the analytical mind of AI technologists as the least the have to do is to be curious of a non-empirical endeavor and intuited to entire new way in seeing mathematics as perpetual incompleteness of conjecture relations, not merely of logical computational.
This 2nd writing is perhaps in need of more meditative state of superposition, in order not to mislead readers that's positivist processes to follow, but to show the affection of mind energy where meanings are sequenced in between certainty and uncertainty, as how intuitive way of life truly lived.
Maybe, if more enduring effort is given to this seemingly possible yet disruptive synchronicity, its relations and novelty perhaps, some other orders of connection might emerge in places of least expected phantasy, as time unfolds in its telling of purpose and agency.
(The writing is permeated through the methods of trans-disciplinary intuition. self-questioning dialogues are formed after some good effort in coherent writings. By focusing on questioning oneself in dialogues, thought is grounded in humility, and the sustained quality of humility shapes the intuitive coherence of expanded questions and writings. The quality of humility is felt in irony and laughter, guided by meditation and dialogues)
i. Meditation
Every being begins with thought or understanding,
Every thought or understand has a beginning,
The beginning of being in thought or understanding begins with a cause,?
The cause to begin the beginning is temporal.
Time is the cause to being in thought or understanding.
Time is lived and intuited as being in thought and understanding throughout its purpose, consciousness and change:
The purpose of time is to enliven the self organization of thought and understanding through the past (repentance), present (relations) and future (hope). Time is metaphysical as thought an understanding are fundamentally meaningful.?
Time comes to aware of its purpose in light of consciousness, first in getting to know (feeling) and second, the knowing itself (sympathy). Time is ontological as it is the becoming of being who gets to know and who comes to the knowing through consciousness of purpose. ? ?
Being in time flown in the ceaseless change towards perpetuity of relations, simultaneity, novelty, heterogeneity and complexity. Time comes into being as agency of free will and creative evolution.?
Purpose, consciousness and change are indivisible intuition of being in time. Purpose, consciousness and change require each other in self organization that intuits across the unity and multiplicity of time’s feeling and sympathy.?
The past (repentance), present (relations) and future (hope) are not in successions but simultaneity in its respective feeling for purpose in self organization:?
The past(repentance) that felt in future is humility,?
The future (hope) that felt in the past is forgiveness,?
The present is felt as :
Unity in consciousness corresponds between past and future, through the sympathetic feeling of : repentance, forgiveness, hope and humility. ?
Multiplicity of change in relations, simultaneity, novelty, heterogeneity, complexity.?
Thought and understanding are fundamentally the waiting and stretching of time? in simultaneous unity and multiplicity for meaning. Purpose is not seek but listened to in time and listening needs moment of silence. When the past is forgiven, silence is redeemed and rejoiced in delight. When the future is humbled, silence is restored and rejoined in grace. Passages of possible change and doors of conscious healing would emerge when time’s purpose is silenced, stretched and waited for in the elasticity of laughter.?
Sympathy is the knowing in how understanding is thought through in time’s feeling. Thought and understanding requires time in getting to know (feeling) itself through consciousness and change. The sympathetic feeling of the past, present and future would unite and multiply meaning in correspondence between purpose and agency.? Sympathy is the basis of being in how one getting to know it’s knowing, in between temperance and perseverance, endurance and enduring.?
Sympathetic feeling is purposively flown in the stream of ceaseless change towards relations, novelty, heterogeneity and complexity. Sympathetic feeling is the vital impulse of self organization and creative evolution. Thought and understanding is the basis of living, and life heals & evolves out of the sympathetic feeling of time’s purpose, consciousness and change. Evolution is metaphysical and ontological, getting to know itself in time’s feeling of sympathy and self organized creatively in purposive knowing.?
What might have been and has been are not only the moments of the past repentance but the doors to the conscious future. What will be and going to be are not only the hope of the future, but the passages of humility from the past. Only the present could make a different to choose a forgiven past and humbled future. Only the sympathetic feeling in time’s purpose of the past, present and future could mean well for evolution. Evolution is finessed in feeling and sympathy, life is self-organized and overflown with purpose of time as the most enduring survival of the fittest.? ? ?

Time is fundamentally cosmological and collective. There are entanglement in time’s relations such as synchronicity and telepathy of calling, dreams and dejavu. ?
Time is intuited as the agency and free will of creative evolution. An individual’s thought and understanding felt sympathetically in the grasping, participating, in reminiscence and correspondence with ceaseless change of flown time.
Time is a life force and has to be studied like any physical forces, at the same time scrutinized as phenomenon of self-organization & creative evolution. Time could only be examined through time+intuition in the feeling (getting to know) and sympathy (knowing) of its life force & vitality, purpose, consciousness and change. Time+Intuition would elevate from both logical positivism and spiritual negativity onto the metaphysics of evidence-based ontology. Time’s purpose, consciousness and change must ultimately lived in? being and the becoming.
Time could only be studied through trans-disciplinary intuition as isolated discipline creates methodical boundary that prevents free will & agency in time’s purpose, consciousness and change. Disciplinary boundaries are merely for control and against humility that would stagnate the free flowing of time for thought and understanding.
In 21st century, time would need a meta-modernistic context where the swinging between metaphysics and postmodernism is allowed in order to guarantee agency & free will that are flown in time’s purpose. The good and the new are both in itself and for the other.?
ii. Dialogue
Why time is important? Time causes the sober existence of thought and understanding, some are newly known of the same past, some are freshly forgotten at present and some half-recalling the future. ?
It seems like soberness doesn’t guarantee certainty? Indeed, soberness is the precise experience of life force across flown time without being pedantic with prediction, down in the stream of ceaseless change, dignified but invisible.?
Am i suggesting that absence of time’s soberness would drowse thought and understanding? Yes, if time is controlled, thought and understanding would lose its life force and sleepwalk into the mechanics of rationality and analytics. The letting go of clocked time regains soberness of the unseen passage in thought and understanding.? ? ? ?
So control of time is the problem? It is, control of time resulting stagnation rather than flown as indivisible stream of change in both its stillness and silent dance. Our thought and understanding are isolated and divided into disciplines to control predictability. Each discipline exists merely for its constructs and methods to create boundary and control.?
Am i saying the unification in amongst disciplines is immanent in order to gain thought and understanding? Yes, indeed. All methods that exist merely to create? boundaries amongst disciplines would fill up the control dam against the flowing stream of thought and understanding. The grasping of time would dissolve the boundaries amongst disciplines. its constructed methods, unify thought and understanding into trans-disciplinary flowing of creaseless change.? Only through time time is conquered (*Four Quartets, Burn Norton, II.)?
How would grasping of time be possible? We experienced time in our daily life. Our thought and understanding are intuitively felt in the basis of repentance (past), relations (present) and hope (future), intimately but also unidentifiably.
Is time measurable? No, the past, present and future are indivisible, we experienced time all at once in correspondence with memory, its ceaseless change in relations, simultaneity, novelty and ordering towards complexity. ?
If time is fundamental to existence, would it be that time is a kind of force? It would have to be, time is life force permeates into consciousness, feeling and memory in order that our thought and understanding could come alive.?
Am i suggesting a kind of physical immateriality or higher phase of immaterial matter exists ? Yes, i do, the discovery of time crystal and symmetry in physics are good examples of this. Physical immateriality elevates the limitations of empirical scientism and at the same ground philosophy, spirituality and faith to this new evidence approach in physics.
How is this new trans-disciplinary approach elevates scientific paradigm? Experience of time’s feeling as evidence of physical immateriality. The metaphysics of experience bestows consciousness as elevated fundamental of science without boundary between the observed and the observer.? ?
Am i saying understanding should be thought out in time’s feeling? Yes, indeed, and its called “intuition”.?
So intuition is the new approach to science? Yes. it has to be.?
How do I know i am feeling my intuition? When i am experiencing an effort of silence and stillness, in waiting to receive time’s feeling rendered as sympathy and humility.?
Am i also saying time has feeling? Yes i do. ?
And how is time’s feeling come to its awareness? Because time causes consciousness.?
Am i saying time is fundamental to consciousness and consciousness makes aware of itself through feeling? Yes, indeed. The purpose of consciousness is to be aware of time and the purpose of time is to be conscious of change through feeling and intuition.?
What else is “there” as time permeates into consciousness, feeling and intuition? Memory, we can’t have consciousness if time doesn’t correspond with memory.?
So am i saying time is the conscious feeling of memory ? Yes, i do.?
And thought and understanding are arrived from the intuition of time’s consciousness and feeling? Yes, indeed.?
So time is outside of thought and understanding? Yes, indeed beause time is the fundamental overflowing its feeling into our thought and understanding.?
Am i proposing an understanding of time that’s not scientific? No, on the contrary, it is what the 21st century sciences are now stumbling upon, increasingly aware of the limitation of talking about time unless it appeals to trans-disciplinary intuition, its feeling and understanding beyond the language of rational and of analytical.?
In a way, i am also saying the fundamental of reality is trans-disciplinary? Yes, i do.?
Where is the place for spirituality, faith and philosophy as are these not also the way of knowing outside of ordinary language? All disciplines should be unified into and from the fundamental of time, it’s consciousness and feeling in correspondence with memory. The closest to universality of consciousness is panpsychism but it tremendously lacks a complete package for consciousness to exist, in particularly the purpose of consciousness is to participate in the dynamic stream of time and its feeling in correspondence with memory towards relations, simultaneity, heterogeneity of novelty and complexity.? ?
So time unifies science, philosophy, spirituality and faith? Yes, indeed.
Can we use rational or analytical language to explain this changelessness arrow of time’s dynamic? Probably not, because time is outside of human construct and could only be accessible through “higher literacy” such as poetry, comedy and irony.?
So the sharing of thought and understanding in time has to intuit to “higher literacy” ? Yes, it is.?
Am i saying thought and understanding could only be felt intuitively in time? Yes, i would like to suggest it is, as contrast to the rational and analytical constructs outside the fundamental of reality in time. Let me give an example through TS Eliot’s poetry of time and its simultaneous irony, the feeling of indivisibly of time is overflowing onto thought in simultaneity with heterogeneous understanding without doing anything rationally or analytically, the force of time comes alive through the effort of intuition, effortlessly :
We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Through the unknown, unremembered gate
When the last of earth left to discover
Is that which was the beginning;
At the source of the longest river
The voice of the hidden waterfall
And the children in the apple-tree
Not known, because not looked for
But heard, half-heard, in the stillness
Between two waves of the sea.
Quick now, here, now, always--
A condition of complete simplicity
(Costing not less than everything)
And all shall be well and
All manner of thing shall be well
When the tongues of flames are in-folded
Into the crowned knot of fire
And the fire and the rose are one.
(Little Gidding, Four Quartets)
Did i say time is a force? Yes i did. Time enlivens into life force felt in its own consciousness lingered in intuition.?
Am i saying time is a life force? Yes, i do.?
And what is intuition then? Intuition is not merely a mode of thought, intuition is the receiver of time’s life force, intuition is a way of receiving vitality of life. Intuition waits and receives time’s feeling of sympathy and humility, spreads its healing across thought and understanding. Intuition self-organizes time’s consciousness into creativity of novel relations, simultaneity and heterogeneity transposed in its perpetual complexity.?
So intuition is pretty intense stuff? Yes, intuition requires intellectual effort in stretching the tension of feeling in the fabric of time.?
What’s the difference between intuition and creativity? Creativity is the complex ordering of time felt throughout intuition. Life evolves creatively in time through intuition of healing and self-organization. Time is ordered into self-organized creative evolution towards complexity and novelty. Intuition is the agency of creative evolution and free will in correspondence with lived time, its life force, consciousness and feeling. Thought and understanding area permeated through time’s life force, consciousness and feeling.?
Are time and space are of two different dimensions? Indeed, time is often confused with motion (in space) just like how people have confused between purpose and action. When we say “slow down”, it is the action of lowered frequency and increased interval or distance in between motion. Time is conscious attention pays to the purpose of action and motion, that, its feeling could detach from space entirely to its pure intuition.? Thoughtful understanding are gained and achieved through the pure intuition of ”slowing down” in the simultaneity of time, not of the motion of space.?
Does space has its own time? Yes, humans have constructed mechanistic time to keep track of juxtaposed control thought and understanding into rational and analytical conditioning.?
What’s the different between lived time and mechanistic time??
There’s flow of vital force in correspondence between our thoughtful understanding and time’s purposiveness, consciousness and change. However, we are increasingly heralding our thought and understanding into the mechanistic dying of juxtaposed motions in disguised of clocked time. Thought and understanding are fundamentally the purposive experience of time’s consciousness, its self-organization into healing of felt sympathy and humility.?
Am i saying thought and understanding must have its vital purpose? Yes, i do. Thought and understanding could decay into degradation or defect without the intuition in sync with time’s purpose, consciousness and change. There’s symmetry in time for memory that synchronizes purpose in correspondence with our thought and understanding.
Am i saying memory is outside of mind? Yes, i do.
Would this already stretching the limits of current scientific methods? Yes It is. ? We need a new immaterial approach towards scientific inquiry and paradigm shift in evidence-based methods to the understanding of time intuitively. The newly aspired scientific methods would allow the grasping, participating, reminiscence and correspondence of intuition to evolve & iterate as indivisible whole towards heterogeneity of complexity. Science should be about unifying the observed and the observer which would have to take a trans-disciplinary train of thought in search for purpose. Evidence of science should be about the missing connection of dots, not of isolating dots.?
How far is the scientific community in supporting this paradigmatic approach in scientific inquiry? In this 21st century, the scientific community is consciously growing into the trans-disciplinary intuition inevitably and feeling for thoughtful understanding that permeates through the physical immateriality of time.?
Why start with 21st century? There is a radical consensus amongst cosmologists that time had been mistaken as space all along throughout this century so far.? In addition, what had been defined physically in previous centuries about time had nothing to do with its permeation into thought and understanding. Time is fundamentally necessary for thinking, of intuition and feeling that would go into? the novelty and complexity of thought and understanding.?
What is significantly different of scientific inquiry in 21st century compared to past centuries? In this 21st century, the scientific community who are advocating the "new theory of time" could not disagree that their role as observer of intuition and feeling in thought permeates understanding. The irony is the pontification of the “new theory of time” is not so much in the essence of the theories of time which are marred with scientists’ own observable differences. The consensus truth about time exists in the observer’s own conscience about consciousness. A new scientific methods that is based on intuition is emerging out of the humility of the observers. The trans-disciplinary approach to scientific intuitionism that unifies the observer and the observed is inevitable as humility is growing towards the confession that physical immateriality of consciousness is fundamental in time.
How would the observer-approach to scientific inquiries change the basis of evidence ? Evidence is searched for in the “time that lost in the absence of intuition”.? The new evidence-based approach could only be researched and developed through the grasping, participating, in reminiscence and correspondence with intuition of time.? What others claimed about time empirically are not enough to cling on as evidence and even not of the rightful evidence at all. The intuition in connecting the invisible dots between and restoring the disconnected thoughtful understanding of the observers are whole to the evidence, instead of isolating connection merely for the dots.
How do we know an observer role is in rightful place of intuition? There is purpose in time, and to claim time’s meaningfulness, one as the role of rightful observer, has to resist the unctuousness of nihilism.
Am i saying an observer needs to be religious or spiritual? No, on the contrast, an observer needs to stay sober from any religious or spiritual conditionings. Pure intuition would grant the access to time’s purpose, consciousness and change.?
Why space/time notion is wrong? Those who claimed time and space are the same thing could be confusing motion (space) with its purpose (time). Movement is created to initiate memory, feeling, relations, simultaneity and all other directions in pure intuition to the purpose of felt time.?
Why space does not precede time? Those who claimed space precedes time could have neglected motion must have its cause. Time's purpose is the causality of motion. The interval of motion is often mistaken as time but it is merely the frequency of movement. We don't need time in motion (especially in pure intuition) but we do need time to explain the purpose of motion.?
What’s wrong with social construction (postmodernism) of time? Those who claimed time is socially constructed doesn’t offer anything new in which mechanistic time has existed long before postmodernism. However, to claim time doesn’t exist therefore morality is also socially construction is a thoughtless propaganda, because to say so means feeling of sympathy and humility felt through time are meaningless without purpose would be simply the pure obsession of deliberate nihilism, not intuitive fact.
What about “The End of Time?” Those who claimed "the end of time" actually mean the end of "mechanistic time", which is not fundamental to reality. One could not talk about time without the simultaneity of consciousness because the scientific community has acknowledged it is increasingly troublesome to ignore consciousness as fundamental of reality of which is the immediate intuition of time. Thus to claim "the end of time" is futile as it could not be true for the living that felt? the vitality of time in it’s healing and self organization towards novelty and complexity. ?
How would the stream of time’s dynamic is intuited and felt? If time is a network of relations, perhaps the purpose to this relations of time could be the intuition permeated as synchronicity of calling/dream/dejavu by some who felt and experienced meaningful coincidence in their lifetime.?
Why empirical evidences are not sufficient for 21st century methods of observer-based science? The evidence-based approach to scientific inquiry must move beyond merely the appearances to the intuitive understanding of connecting dots that lived in time. Observation alone can't provide the evidence for the purpose of time which must be felt into sympathy through the observer’s pure intuition. The scientific community are coming to recognize that consciousness have to be included in scientific inquiry. The observer's intuition, feeling, free will and novelty are all metaphysically and ontologically necessary to intuit the iterative heterogeneity of time.
Why 21st century physics are stil not sufficient to offer understanding of time? Perhaps physicians who are “looking for whereabout of time” have been searching at the wrong place. Time and memory could not be separated as isolated inquiry. “Symmetry” could unify the physical whereabout of time.? "Symmetry" (of Frank Wilczek et al) could also intuitively unify the imagination of all physical theories of time by giving time its memory.?
Why is a unified theory of time (bringing together philosophy and physics)? necessary? Perhaps the meaning of time is in its evolutionary and indivisible whole, yet a perpetual stream of dynamic change towards novelty and complexity. Every definition of time in its respective time is part of the collective complexity of time.? Time is about eternity of the Form (Plato), change (Aristotle), universal flow (Newton), simultaneous fabric (Einstein), shape (Barbour),? relations (Smolin, Rovelli and et al) and complexity(Barbour).? In the perspective of some of the progressive neuroscientists who are advocating memory outside materiality (Rudolph Tanzi et al), it might not be too far fetch to even suggest the physicality of time’s symmetry could inhibit collective memories or “Dynamic Forms" that are requires for self organization.
So is time subjective? Lived time is not subjective but it is metaphysical and ontological. Time as life force and its consciousness is felt in beings,? into intuition and through it the sympathy and humility needed to heal and self-organize thought and understanding.? ?
What is preventing trans-disciplinary paradigm shift? Physicists of the 21st century? have proposed to bridge the physical immateriality of time with consciousness where our mind, thought and understanding would be intuitively aware of its feeling and agency. Physicists of the 21st century have gotten rid of time of the past in order to restore time’s consciousness,? invite us to participate in time as how the future could be different with free will. Physicists of the 21st century invite us to read time literature for what they could not find physically about time. Physicists of the 21st century realized that the observer’s consciousness is not separable in time but they said it is still too early to prove that because science has its disciplinary boundary. Other disciplines also exist merely for their methodical boundaries. Disciplinary boundaries prevent the whole truth of time to come together, time is controlled rather than flown.?
How do we conclude this writing? We would need to and must have a trans-disciplinary paradigm for the purpose of time. Time as a mechanistic clock is definitely outlived and outdated view of life. We have to invite ourselves to the intuition of time from its causal fundamental, as a life force, consciousness, stream of ceaseless change in novelty and complexity.?
