What are moments?

Einstein related to time as a persistent illusion.

The thing is this we are born and we die. In between we need to eat and have a safe place to sleep and without that we die before our time.

Moment in contrast seem infinite in that things that happened 13 billion light years from here at this moment happened.

Often when we relate to reality we offer a past or future and we talk much about the subject but what about the moment?

Your thread title leads me to develop a hypothesis, you're a bit on the slow side.

You clearly have absolutely no idea how irrelevant that response was.

Moments can be understood as infinite in the context that all things that occur in a moment, occur at once.

Yes that is true but we inherently gather information during each one.

We are designed to do that and it perpetuity that issue could have meaning beyond what we today relate to.

You ever been in a firefight? You ever seen your life flash before your eyes? You ever have time stand still as the turd breaks the surface tension of the water to splash a drop of 43° liquid electricity on your balloonknot? These are the mysteries of life....read my book Lost Secrets of the Blue Apples (Amazon) to find the answers you're looking for.

I have been through stuff that most people would run into a pharmacy and purchase adult pampers for.

I understand where you are coming from and Yeah....

At the behest and respect of the OP

Perhaps in relation relating to ourselves in an altogether way. To some extent we place much more emphasis upon origins and outcomes, rather than the input that was its result.

I don't know of this balloon knot you speak of...but liquid electricity sounds hazardous, especially around balloons.
I will however have a quick look at your Amazon page

a reply to: TechniXcality


Actually I would prefer if you take that image off this thread.

a reply to: Kashai

Not a problem.

a reply to: TechniXcality


Understandably it sounds incredible but in truth the current and common perspective on reality (I think). Places way to much emphasis upon beginnings and ends and not what we really are all about.

The moment.

Thanks I really appreciate that
