What is the biggest limiting belief of human race. If you understand this, you are successful. Guaranteed.

Amidst the biggest challenge that the world is facing currently, Mostly it's about the future. We are scared that the future has come to a halt. Does it sound weird to anyone? If yes, you all my Tribe. We sentient beings share our livingness with each other. Somehow, we know we are alive, or if not alive, we are living.

Sentient beings are described by Wikipedia as,

Sentience is the capacity to feel, perceive, or experience subjectively. Eighteenth-century philosophers used the concept to distinguish the ability to think (reason) from the ability to feel (sentience). In modern Western philosophy, sentience is the ability to experience sensations (known in philosophy of mind as "qualia").

In Eastern philosophy, sentience is a metaphysical quality of all things that require respect and care.

Strangely the idea of time is a human construct, the idea exists in the human- mind matrix it’s an idea, a notion, a concept. Is there a "time" out there? Is time the "clock" time? The ordinary idea about time is - Yesterday is past, today is present, & tomorrow is future, or let me put it in another way. Which has passed is past, which is passing is present, which will pass or will happen in the future.

The assumption is we are standing still. But is it really that we are standing still? I was born as small, not more (At birth, the average baby weighs about 7.5 pounds — though the range of normal is between 5.8 and 10 pounds. April 15, 2019 Google)

Now I am 170 pounds, 20 times the size I was born. I was a baby, now I am a middle-aged man, I will be, old man. From a baby to an old man, we are always in motion. In Life, nothing is static. It is a FLUX.

So, will I be wrong, if I say, that since we cannot see our changing self, we project the change to TIME?

Interestingly we have not seen time, not touched it, nor do we know where time is. Does the clock show time? Or the calendar shows days, months, year?

For human convenience and understanding, we divided the year into 365 days, and each day into 24 hours, and each hour into 60 minutes & each minute into 60 seconds, each year has 12 months, each month has 30/31 days. These are "mathematical". But the real question is " is this time"?

Einstein proved scientifically what we've been saying since Vedic time, that time is the 4th dimension of space. Space is never changing, it is constant. So, if time is a dimension of space, n space never changes, it simply means "time doesn't change".

So, Time cannot be managed, the "Time Management" techniques will prove ineffective if no changes are made in the "SELF". One cannot manage time; one can manage oneself. Simple.

Have you ever felt in a moment that TIME has stopped? Go back and recall the moments when you felt exactly this

FIRST LOVE

Meeting an old friend.

Life highs. Maybe the first job or promotion.

The moment when you became a parent.

Watching nature.

Experiencing Emotional highs.

Paradoxically Time freezes when we are in deep pain too, the feeling that Low/sad/painful time takes a lot of time to get over. Have we never discussed it? "Oh, it's a long sad story" " I have been in pain for too long". "Oh, it felt like a century has passed"

So, the opposite of time passing off quickly is that time stood like a rock, not moving at all. We have had both experiences.

When we see the trees from a moving train, their position is changing concerning us. Hence, they appear to be moving.

So does TIME stop, if not what stops?

All the people who have experienced DEEP MEDITATION moments will understand the "NO MIND" the mind stops, and since the mind stops all the chaos in the mind stops, the mind is chaos, confusion, unlimited ideas, dreams, memories, stories. Suddenly the mind clatter stops, in experiencing a very high dose of happy moments suddenly the mind stops.

This stopping of mind creates an idea, that the TIME has stopped, though What has stopped is the MIND

This stopping of the MIND reveals the true nature of "TIME" too. TIME is always PRESENT; it never is PAST OR FUTURE.

__________________________________________________________________________

HAVE YOU EVER EXPERIENCED this phenomenon?  

The more I realized & understood MIND the more confident I got that, TIME is like the universe, the mirror of the MIND set point. Whatever is there inside, the mind at that point, is the set point. If you are miserable,sad, time will move slow. When you are in Joy, Happiness time will seem to pass by quickly. 

So TIME is not absolute, But RELATIVE. 

The clock has utilitarian functions, its convenience. It is good to use the clock to plan, but do not confuse the time being shown in the clock as TIME. 

Future does not happen tomorrow, each moment to moment we create the future. The present moment creates, conceives the “tomorrow”. Out of the womb of the present, the future is born.  

The Mind says “I will be happy when I achieve the goal” 

The Heart says “Be happy, you will achieve the goal”

Is the Timeless of the clock? Timelessness is an absolute, and since it is an absolute, it does not have relative existence. The experience of timelessness cannot be measured by a CLOCK. 

In some mysterious way, each of us occupies a timeless domain, and to produce a four-dimensional world for the purpose of living in it, we dream it forth. That is, we create the world in consciousness first and foremost. There is no given clock “out there.”.

What we call Time is not time in Real. It's just chronology time. A mathematical arrangement. 

According to research people who get up with an alarm clock do not feel fresh all day. It's always a better idea, to trust our inner Circadian clock. Like any other human invention, the clock has only utilitarian usage, it adds nothing to the human happiness index. 

Can you tell me about any human invention which has in REAL made transformations in HUMAN HAPPINESS? I doubt if we can even count ONE! 

What do you think has been the human invention which has added, multiplied human happiness?

Why am I sharing this article with you all? It is because 

1) I have worked with timelines, clock-like precision, month wise plan, 1-year planning, and the effect it has on the human psyche. It is UNNATURAL, against nature laws. It is a giant killer. It is also a SILENT Killer.

2) We somehow have an idea, that if have to choose between materialism & spiritualism, somehow there is a fight between the two, and we as humans can have only one of the two. Absolutely not, we can choose the best of both. One can be the blend of both. There is nothing wrong in Being rich, each human should be rich, we all deserve abundance. We cannot grow, our growth is stunted in poverty. 

3) Our approach is scientifically tested. In Okinawa, Japan, people live joyous, fulfilling lives. And the source of their joy and fulfillment is Moai. Its root can be found in the ancient villages of Japan where people would forge groups, provide social support, contribute to each other’s life (even financially), and encourage dialogues in the form of group dinners, local chores, and board games. This interdependence has helped them thrive with love, understanding, and fulfillment. We emulate the same approach in our training programs.

Today I think we have many people that can be scientific but still admit have spiritual side, and vice versa.
