We are all so entrapped in concepts of time that we have absorbed from our primitive society. Sure, you have to use time to make it to your doctor’s appointment appropriately (i.e., on time). But don’t foolishly let time cause you to, for instance, fear death.
Wisdom dwells in (or “as”) the present, but that present is not of time. Such dwelling is timeless, and it involves attention beyond the clutches of thought/thinking. Thinking, though often necessary, takes time; it is time-oriented; it is time. Sorrow stems from thought/thinking, and a timeless life exists beyond much sorrow. A mind that wisely psychologically dies to the clutches of thought/thinking may exist as a timelessness beyond sorrow. There is an immeasurable, spiritual timelessness that is wiser and deeper than, and untouched by, the limitations of the clock.
My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped.
I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.
