Quoting: Sir Tim The-Not-Quite-So-Brave Taking this a step further, Albert Einstein said in his later years that the past, present and future all exist simultaneously. Maybe he was right Jump into a float tank for 4 hours, you'll know hes right. What exactly is 4 hours? In our measurements of time, we can quantify the size of an event's duration by measuring the difference between its beginning and end. We can do this because time from our perspective is linear. However, if we are asleep and we measure our own perception of time: 4 hours can become 4 days or 4 seconds. There is no apparent linearity. If I sleep next to somebody who remains awake, our perceptions of time are very different. Yet, it manages to control both "illusions" of itself in order for us to see that time is continuing to run regardless of our observance of it. I may dream for what appears to be 4 days, and yet 4 hours has passed by to somebody else who is awake. How can this multiplicity be achieved simultaneously? Many questions and yet another still remains - if we measure an event to be 4 hours. What is the nature of this "time" that exists between the beginning and the end of an event, such that it has the ability to become 4 seconds or 4 days elsewhere? Not only can it be an illusion, but it has multiplicity. An illusion within an illusion? Who really knows. The debate continues and the mystery remains. |

Quoting: Sir Tim The-Not-Quite-So-Brave Or is it? We can't be sure what exists (if anything) within the world of subatomic particles nor beyond our own universe and/or multiverses. If we could look at the bigger picture, maybe what we know as the 'timeline' isn't really a line at all. Locally, to our own perceptions - it is a straight line and uniform as we can assume that today seems to go by just as quickly or slowly as yesterday did give or take; however is this just a 'local illusion'? A very large circle, for instance, can appear to be locally straight if you 'zoom in' at a point...and if we could chart time over entire eons could it appear not be straight at all, but curved, perhaps even a circle of infinite radius? Taking this a step further, Albert Einstein said in his later years that the past, present and future all exist simultaneously. Maybe he was right. Much the same as mathematics does a fairly decent job of modelling the universe, perhaps time is actually a fractal: a 2-dimensional entity that exists within itself encompassing all, whilst self-replicating eternally from a single complex quadratic polynomial. It's possible that time is an illusion and we have been given the mathematical clue. The square root of -1. i. What time is it?
