Time, Thought and the Eternal

When one contemplates time, there is movement. There is psychological time and physical time. It takes time to move from point A to point B. The interval between point A and point B is time and its environment is space. Mind separates time and space in order to understand and comprehend physical orientation. Thought is division, it divides and compartmentalizes events and ideas in order to calculate physical and psychological movement. It is the self imposed limitation of thought. Thought cannot go beyond time, so it cannot comprehend that which is beyond space/time which is actually one dimension not two or three. Three dimensional reality is the illusion of materiality. When thought ceases the activity of division and of time/space-thought, there is only one dimension, which is the unknown. The unknown is the only reality.

The unknown is consciousness without time/space which is the movement of thought. The unknown is in the absolute moment. It is reality only if mind is still, not moving. Once mind captures the moment and catalogues it, it becomes two or three dimensional memory. It is a reference point of materiality. It becomes the known and exist as part of accumulated memory.
From these accumulated memories, mind creates its own reality. A selective reality which is based on individual experiences. These experiences are contradictory and and create confusion and disintegration. Thought moves from one experience to another attempting to reconcile opposition within the frame work of perceived image, which is constantly being modified in order to protect and insulate the ego/self. One is constantly engaged in the activity of compromising ones position for the sake of sanity. One may realize just how neurotic most of us actually are. Our neurosis plays out in various ways, some mild, such as nail biting or other physical manifestations. Some more violent in nature.

Thought moves from the past (memory) through the present to the future. This movement is time. The thinker as separate from thought is the space. It is the illusion of thinker and thought. The space between thinker and thought is time. When one realizes that the thinker is the thought, that they are not separate, then it is the ending of space/time. One is in the reality of the moment. It is the realization of the true self and the ending of the me and the not me. One ceases the activity of referencing memory, which is the ego/self. Within this realization is the eternal, that which has no beginning or end. It is the illumination of death, of that which is forever the unknown, that which is the reality of life. To realize death is to find life that is without the angst of being or becoming.
