Perception of Time

Time is the most important element of universe which everyone knows but do not even understand a second of it. Time is the infinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as whole. As the definition suggests time in itself is a record of the whole of existence and it's meaning can only be justified by the time itself. Existence is the creation which is the manifestation of time. Universe is the whole of existence thus the creation, and it is as a single clasp.

Universe exists because time is.

Time is not just a physical quantity but it is the dimension in itself. When looked further time is something more than a dimension too, it can be understood as the keeper of all the dimension of the universe. It is the human arrogance which defines the time through a moving needle of the clock. Truthfully the seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries, millenniums and so on are just the calculation and understanding of the moving present, leaving past and approaching future in human's perception.

Theories are being written on time travel, a dream of every science freak to come true. But we fail to understand that we already are travelling forward in time if it was to be hypothetically represented as a physical linear path. 'Past' is the time which is no longer a reality. Things which once happened immediately moves in the past folder. Every second of which you live are gone to the very same folder. It is no longer a living experience and hence seems to be like a dream - depending upon the clarity of the memories.

Once lived again or been again to the same time violates the very meaning of the past. Whereas future is a fantasy and uncertainty which lies beyond the human ciphering in present living. Every moment which is not yet lived is a future.

From the point of Time-Space the line of present keeps moving forward taking us to what we call the destination and stops in between of the destination, are labelled as "future".

Present, Past, Future are not three different dimensions or separate geographical entities, which one can travel to. It is the superimposition of the same point called pt. 'A' rather than three different points, 'A', 'B'and 'C'. Journey is travelling from one point to another but if all the 3 points coincide together than one can either take rounds of it or just be there.
The three 'P's - Present, Past and Future go parallel together and one can relive the past if concentrate on it; one can also experience the future if imagines it very well.

But it is a destructive way of living. Living in the present moment is better than Time Travel.
Books are written on time travel, entire generation reads it and lives with that idea and soon the popularity dies changing nothing in a human life.

Physics is a good tool to understand the physical reality and create another physical tools out of the study. Physics is places under the boundaries of human logic which is a part of intelligence in the cosmos. But what humans fail to understand is that universe is under no obligation to make sense to any of us as sense is again placed under the borders of logic.

There is intelligence outside the human intellect and caliber which may not always be physical in nature. Reason for failed attempts of understanding the ground reality of time is that we (humans) have always tried to understand a non physical dimension with a physical tool and ciphering.
This system can yield us with the understanding of temperature, gravity, light, sound, material, rotation and even atoms but not time and darkness.

Darkness, nothingness, empty voids are only been labelled as the quantum fluctuations by physicists till now but not with conformity as the true nature and in depth understanding of it is missing just like "Time". Reason is because both of them are non physical dimensions. To understand further about the empty voids, dark matter one can read about it in the previous post of the blog- "Vuja De".

Interestingly in ancient Indian culture Time and Darkness/ Nothingness were placed in the same jar. Both were refereed to as "Kaala" . There was a certain understanding in the yogic system that the gravity was pulled out of the bending of time instead of time getting formed due to gravity.
When "Shi"-"Va" (that which does not exist, the dark energy) got into vibrancy (vibrant dance of particles- Nataraj when Shiva personified) that is when it was called as time which defined the universe.

This bend of Kaala led to formation of cycle of time which goes on. Some get trapped into the cycle and turn materialistic whereas some who get crushed by time and are sufferers, and the exceptional ones with higher intense way of living are the riders of the cycle who can be referred to as spiritual people. Spiritual humans neither get crushed nor trapped in time.

When a person lives slackly time seems to move forward slowly and the person who lives intensely feels the time running away. Time is same for all but it is the different experience of it which makes the people feel same quantity as different. Perceiving time from different view points is the only way of getting closer to understanding the very time itself.

In ancient India when people died it was commonly said by others that a person's time was over in the planet. In Hindu cosmology the entire life of universe is said to be one day of Brahma. For a larger and complex living system with a longer life, anything less than the 1/100th of it's time is relatively insignificant. For a bacteria few minutes can be the entirety of it's life. It can break the time further down to count whereas for a human a few minutes is a very small unit in the life.

When the planet completes it's rotation it is a day, a significant amount of time for the limited time living beings. But the same day in the lifetime of planet earth relatively is a minute or even a second. The lifetime of planet earth in the star's life might be a year and the star's complete life in a galaxy's lifetime might be just a second.

An interesting experiment was conducted by the physicist called Michio Kaku, where when the speed of car is increased to 10 times more than the highest limit it is barely seen. When the speed was increased to the infinite times the object went missing. Or in simple terms the fastest ever vehicle was hardly seen by anyone by naked eye to observe and thus said it is missing or does not exist any longer.
Time Space perception in modern physics.

Higher speed meant a great distance in a small amount of time. If the scale of time is zoomed out further and relatively seen from a point of view of the universe, everything which exists in the cosmos is because time is being transitioned with a pace where it is observable for us.

If the eternity of universe was to be squeezed out in microseconds, the existence would never have simply existed. It would be equivalent to the car which became non existent in Michio Kaku's experiment.

Einstein's theory of relativity suggests that time which is relative can be stretched and squeezed but it can never run backwards. So whatever we've been brainwashed into thinking by sci-fi movies about time travel is not exactly how it really works. Maybe for a higher dimensional being time is treated as another dimension which might be ciphered down  but in a three dimensional world where we live- time travel is just nonsensical.
