TIME AND SPACE

 Q: If one were to start at one point in the universe and travel in a straight line what would eventually happen? One theory is that you would go forever. Another is that you will end up in the same point, and that space is curved. A third is that space is folded, and many of the galaxies we see might be different views of other galaxies.

 

     That is correct, space folds, but so does time. It is a multidimensional universe. It is a multidimensional, multifaceted universe. It does not move in any linear fashion. If you start at one point and go as far as you may go, you will not go anywhere. You will remain where you are for there is no place to go. Do you understand? It is an illusion. There is no movement. It is only a dream. You dream that you move because you believe there is time and you believe that there is distance so you believe that you move and endlessly you will move as long as you believe in these. But if the dreamer awakes, they will see that neither time nor space have a factual existence. And therefore matter does not move. There is no place to go. There is no time to go. All exists in the moment, now, in this place. Do you understand? It is a multifaceted creation. While stars and galaxies exist, one runs from another, there is no distance at all. Space folds. It exists but it is all now, here. Yet it is light years away. It is multidimensional, yet it is simple. Within a given place there may be a hundred universes. Within a given time, there may be a thousand places. But all exists in one place, in one time, for time and space are illusions and therefore movement is also illusory. Inherent in creation is destruction, inherent in birth is death. If you may go far, inherent in this is the absence of distance.

     So if you begin at a given point, you will travel through eternity without end and you will not find the end of the universe nor will you move one foot from where you began. Do you understand? Space is not linear, time is not linear, movement is an illusion. It only exists within the relativity of space and time.  That is why I say, to understand the physics of this universe, you must understand space and time. And then you must understand a third entity, that is the witnessing entity. For neither space nor time may exist without a witness to observe their existence. They lie within the witnessing consciousness of Parama Purus'a.

     So there must be a witness and there must be space and time for the appearance of motion, but space and time are not linear. So motion is also not linear and its operating principles will appear differently depending upon the phase of differential between the space - time development. It is not linear nor sequential. What is far is near what is in the future existed in the past and the past in the future for there is only the present. Do you comprehend?
