Time Philosophy

"Time is that in which we live - it is horizontal. It is from A to B to C to D; it is in a line. Eternity is vertical. It is not from A to B and from B to C. It is from A to more A to still more A. It goes on upwards. The moment is rare because it happens only when meditation has reached ripening, maturity, when you have touched your innermost core." The vertical line opens a door to eternity.

The world has entered an era of the most profound and challenging change in human history. Most of our children are not prepared, and we know it.Parents around the world see the change and know that the traditional three R's - reading, writing, and arithmetic - are necessary, but not enough. Their children need to become far more responsible, creative, and tolerant of differences. They need to increase their ability to think for themselves, take initiative, get along with others, and solve problems.

God does not change like shifting shadows. We know that. He is God. That would be whimsical, undependable. But like any truly loving person, God changes his mind and his heart based on relationships. Right back with Noah and Flood, the very beginning of the Bible and of creation, look what God tells us: ‘The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become… The Lord regretted that he had made human beings, and his heart was deeply troubled.’ (Genesis 6:5-6) The Lord regretted something he did. Something that he told us earlier he thought was ‘good’. (Genesis 1:31) ...

Tim Ozman posits that the World Stage is a manipulative construct sustained by media fakery and belief, trapping people in ideological boxes (Normieville, Trutherville, Woketown). Truthers, despite opposing the mainstream, are complicit in the system by adopting reflexive "Anti" stances, which are as programmed as "Pro" positions. True skepticism requires an "Anti-Anti" stance, rejecting both sides of controlled dialectics and exiting the World Stage via a Parallel Media of media skeptics. This "Offworld Stage" perspective challenges the elite's mindwar by fostering disbelief and ...

In Bunker, acclaimed urban explorer and cultural geographer Bradley Garrett explores the global and rapidly growing movement of 'prepping' for social and environmental collapse, or 'Doomsday'. From the 'dread merchants' hustling safe spaces in the American mid-West to eco-fortresses in Thailand, from geoscrapers to armoured mobile bunkers, Bunker is a brilliant, original and never less than deeply disturbing story from the frontlines of the way we live now: an illuminating reflection on our age of disquiet and dread that brings it into new, sharp focus.

In 1916, Arthur Eddington, a war-weary British astronomer, opened a letter written by an obscure German professor named Einstein. The neatly printed equations on the scrap of paper outlined his world-changing theory of general relativity. Until then Einstein's masterpiece of time and space had been trapped behind the physical and ideological lines of battle, unknown. Eddington realised the importance of the letter - perhaps Einstein's esoteric theory could not only change the future of science but also restore the world of cooperative international science in a time of brutal war.

Cómo podemos ser más conscientes cuando el mundo está j*dido?

Cómo mantenerse humano en un mundo j*dido es la respuesta fresca y atractiva a esta importante pregunta. Si has intentado la atención plena y has fallado, le entendemos. Probablemente le dijeron que se sentara en una almohada en una habitación oscura, meditar o contar sus respiraciones. Pero la atención plena no se trata de separarnos de los problemas del mundo. En cambio, se trata de volver a aprender cómo salir, conectarse con el sufrimiento de cada ser viviente.

Einstein said that repeating the same action over and over and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity. In John Fast's world, the two things which stand as shining examples of insanity are addiction and war. After spending years in warzones and after over thirty years as a recovering alcoholic, John has come to see the similarities between the stories told by our political leaders as they rationalise and justify their endless wars, and the stories told by chronic drunks all over the world as they rationalise and justify the insanity which is prevalent in their lives.

Imagine time as the force driving existence, rather than just a procession of events. How can that concept enhance how we regard science, religion, philosophy, and our daily living? Review the possibilities presented in this audiobook. Then you decide. Our tendency to initiate, define, and measure causation dimensionally continues to obscure underlying reality. This audiobook provides a simplified imperative of two concurrent integrated realms, one of unity where everything occurs, and one where the results of action in unity are displayed dimensionally.

Navigating through time takes you on an introspective journey to explore the core tenets of philosophy and the nature of being, so that one can look in the mirror and ask the question “who are you really?” What makes up your thoughts, your actions, your character, and are you happy? Who do you want to be? Where do you want to go? Although some of us can spend a lifetime exploring, the ultimate answer lies in the heart of the seeker.
