The Collapse of Time into Eternity

Just as a fuzzy two-dimensional screen expands into an immersive three-dimensional world when we wear special glasses at the cinema, our ever-present being expands into the illusion of time when we don the glasses of thinking. Time appears as the medium in which past memories and future imaginings exist, but when thinking ceases, this medium collapses completely. The ‘now’ is not simply a moment in time but the portal through which the mind passes from time into eternity, and through which being passes from eternity into time. We don’t remember things because they exist in the past – the past seems to exist because we remember. Everything that occurs in time is folded within eternity, only realised when thought begins. The ‘I-thought’ is therefore the mother of the world, and the Big Bang is not an event from 13.8 billion years ago but the dimensionless point through which being continually expands into existence, now.
