Blog post for Memorial Day May 31, 2021

What better time to reflect on the illusion of time, the day we are supposed to remember past events, than Memorial day? I have quoted Albert Einstein in other blog posts. Einstein discovered time is relative and that ultimately there is no such thing as time; that the past, present and future are all happening simultaneously, and I might add, only exist in the present moment of the here and now.

To prove the illusion of time, which is a mental concept/construct, created by the mind, we need to heed the word of God in Ecclestiastics 3:15.

“Whatever is has already been,
  And what will be has been before,
  And God will call the past to account.”

“If you don’t think your mind creates time, then see if you can find time outside your mind. Now try and find the future without thought. Try really hard. It’s not possible to find any evidence of the past or the future without thought. No one has ever been able to step into the past or into the future. When anything happened in the past, it happened in the present moment. When anything happens in the future, it always happens in the present moment.” Rhonda Byrne- The Greatest Secret

“Try and find evidence of the past without thought. Try as hard as you can to find any past apart from the current thought of it. It’s impossible.” Peter Dziuban

On this Memorial day, “Remember, BE HERE NOW.” Baba Ram Dass

Nothing else exists but now.
