We define:
- “timespan” as the gap between specific perceived identities, as experiences, events, or incidents
- “time” as the gap within perceptions in general
A perception is new or different from a pervious perception if it has something different in it. So we can say that time is an effect of change.
3 Kinds of Time
A universe that has zero changes does not have time. Changes in the universe happen in the 3 Layers:
- Aethereal
- Radiant
- Material
The changes are facilitated by 2 Layers next to them:
- Spatial
This results in the general concept of time
- Convertible
This results in particle decay times.
These lead to 3 kinds of times:
- Aethereal
This is mental time. This is the time that “flies fast when you’re having fun”.
- Radiant
This is relativistic time facilitated by invariance and constant speed of light.
- Material
This is absolute time in classical mechanics.
By pegging time to c, Einstein blocked out aethereal time and therefore the aethereal and spatial layers.
This is why we downgrade his simultaneity of time from a principle into a convention in order to restore Nature and allow mental or subjective time. This means that:
- the metric tensor varies and is not even a tensor because this changes his 4d continuum into 2d slices that can be arranged arbitrarily instead of sequentially.
- This arbitrariness allows teleportation where matter can be in one place now and a totally different place in another.
People would use the simultaneity of time when they need precise timing values, such as those for GPS.
The Unity of Space and Time
Unlike the other layers, the spatial layer is about the gap between:
- the perceiver, as the subject
- the perceptions, as the object
In the Physical Domain, space is dominant because objects are dominant. For example, an object, as a static perception, exists in:
- 3 dimensions of space as length, width, height
- 1 dimension of time
Notice how the “Riemann” object on the left makes obvious the space it occupies, as its length, width, and height. But it does not make the time aspect obvious.
A physical object makes the space aspect obvious, but not the time aspect
Our sliced object on the right, on the contrary, exposes both the space and the time used by perception to have knowledge of the same object.
This is because we look at the object one part at a time. This is in turn because the mind can only have 1 object inside it at a time.
Usually, we look at it from top to bottom. We do not see the object in totality immediately as to know all its visual properties.
Therefore, our spacetime model makes the unity of space and time easier to understand.
- This unity is really the unity of subject and object, or of perceiver and perception.
Time Always Moves Forward
Both space and time are products of perception which always moved outward or forward from the self as the lower mind. This is why time always moves forward whether externally or internally.
This is because main purpose of the aethereal layer is to facilitate perception.
A consciousness that moves backwards will be deleting its own mind its its own ideas and feelings.
The different properties of time aries from the different densities of the perceivers:
| Perceiver | Quality of Time |
|---|---|
| Lower Mind | Time Moves Forward Linearly |
| Higher Mind | Time Moves Forward Linearly Faster or Slower |
| Soul and Oversoul | Everything is Simultaneous (Aether dominates, Spacetime is negligible) |
- In Sanskrit, this oversoul is the Brahman
- In Parmenides by Plato, this oversoul is the One
Does the One as a Whole experience time? Does it become older and younger than Itself and Others?
- To exist is to be in the present time
- To have been is to be at a past time
- To be about to be is to be at a future time Then the One, since it has being also has time. Time is always moving forward.
Planck time is the smallest unit of time between spacetimes. This is represented by quantum of timespace or qots.
Static Space Versus Dynamic Time
The Physical Domain has less change and dynamism compared to the Metaphysical.
For example, when we look outside our window, we see trees, buildings, and objects. These do not change the space that they occupy so readily.
But when we have metaphysical dreams, the same trees, buildings, and objects might totally change from one scene to another very rapidly.
This is because the Metaphysical Domain is closer to the Aethereal layer which is purely kinetic and dynamic.
This is why we say time gets more malleable and simultaneous the higher the layer, while space becomes less important.
This leads to our concept of timespace.
Physical Time Versus Metaphysical Time
We classify the material and radiant times are physical time, and the aethereal or mental time as metaphysical.
- Physical Time occupies the lower layers of timespace
- Metaphysical Time occupies the upper layers.
In Physics, this is roughly similar to the concept of Proper and Coordinate Time from Einstein’s Relativity.
- Physical Time is objective.
- Metaphysical Time is subjective.
| Domain | Layer | Name | Measure | Physics Name |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Metaphysical | Aethereal | Mental | Experience | Coordinate Time (Einstein) |
| Metaphysical | Spatial | Time | Perception | Timespan |
| Physical | Radiant | Electromagnetic | Atomic Clock | Proper Time (Einstein) |
| Physical | Convertible | Decay | Radioactive Decay Clock | |
| Physical | Material | Material | Sand Clock | Absolute Time (Newton) |
