"Spherical Time" - Marco M.
Spherical Time
Words and terms are important. When we say 'I am at a loss for words' or 'I struggle to put it into words,' it means that we haven't fully understood it yet.
Today I understood. A genuine Satori. For the first time I heard the phrase 'spherical time' and something shifted. I realized that until now I didn't have the right terminology to express my experiential perception of time in 'my best moments' and that this lack made those moments less vivid.
I know, my personal epiphany might not matter at all to you who are reading. But it could be that my understanding becomes yours.
Cyclical time is, in any case, a time that has substance and reality. It’s a vision of time that keeps open the possibility of past lives and previous lives, it’s an “eternal return” where time is real and “passes” as if we were on a train traveling on a circular railway.
I know, my personal epiphany might not matter at all to you who are reading. But it could be that my understanding becomes yours.
In spherical time, only the present exists, and it is consciousness that travels to different points on the sphere, sometimes falling into the illusion that there is a past and a future, while these are simply different points in space. When we remember, we do not see points on the sphere from another moment but create new worlds and new possibilities in an endless search for lost time, which, however, does not actually exist.
