Dense Time

 

Helena P Blavatsky, while commentating on the “An Omnipresent, Eternal, Boundless, and Immutable PRINCIPLE ..” explains that the Absolute expresses itself into “Absolute Abstract Space” and “Absolute Abstract Motion” before manifesting. These are very significant revelations. Revelations because, she wrote these much before Einstein’s Theory of Relativity was introduced to the world linking Space and Time. The word “Motion” here should be read as TIME; as no motion can be conceived of without TIME, and the two are one. But TIME is different from time which is the apparent measurement of a duration.

What then, is the Absolute Abstract TIME?  

A noted scientist and astrophysicist, Nikolai Kozyrev of the erstwhile Soviet Union, amidst numerous known & unknown researchers/thinkers, sought to explore the world of ‘Absolute Abstract TIME’. He is singularly credited for explaining the ‘moon craters as the volcanic activity’, long before they were even discovered by the man’s quest of the moon. Kozyrev experimented on the ‘nature and properties’ of TIME around 1950-70’s and made a number of startling revelations based on the factual experimental data. He hypothesized that the TIME has not only the ‘motion and flow’ but has density’ as well. Besides, he also proclaimed that TIME is energy; and that combined with Space, it is the source of all creation. The Density of TIME determines the composition of matter and came up with the theory of “Causal Mechanics”. Causal Mechanics seeks to establish that it is not only the Cause that results into Consequences but the Consequences themselves determine the Cause. This has been substantiated by him with elaborate mathematical algorithms.

Nikolai Kozyrev’s works were of such nature that the Soviet Government classified them as Top Secret. It is only after 1990’s (when the documents were declassified), that the Western World could get to know of his experiments. The Institute for Temporology (Study of Science of TIME), under Moscow State University, was set up consequent to his findings.

The summary of Kozyrev’s findings, including “Causal Mechanics” show that:

1.TIME is Energy (therefore convertible into matter?)

2.TIME is Wave Like

3.TIME WAVES have spiral like motion

4.TIME DENSITY is a critical factor in creation and maintenance of Universe. 

5.That cause and consequence are mutually related through a factor of TIME.

These findings are not much different from what the ancient wisdom explains to us, particularly if we considered the “Absolute Abstract Space” as Aether or Akasha.

TIME YOGI

Thus far we have been investigating TIME as a separate, self-governing, sovereign entity, alike MAYA (Illusion), GOD (The Almighty), SATAN (The Devil) etc – i.e. one of the manifestations of the Absolute, (Parabrahma, Avyakta etc,) This has been necessitated to reach this far.

We could now attempt to look at TIME as a principle. The great esoteric Helena Blavatsky, in her book “The Secret Doctrine”, mentions the existence of:

An Omnipresent, Eternal, Boundless, and Immutable PRINCIPLE on which all speculation is impossible, since it transcends the power of human conception and could only be dwarfed by any human expression or similitude. It is beyond the range and reach of thought—in the words of Måñdükya Upanishad, “unthinkable and unspeakable.”

The above description is summarized in the word “Avyakta – the Indescribable”, as used by the Indian sages. The commonly held view is that there is a manifested portion of this Avyakta, which is possible to comprehend – The Universe, God etc. Theoretically thus, all the commentaries should be correlated to the manifested portion only although speculators like myself have never been deterred attempting to speculate on the Avyakta as well; and more often resulting in confusing between the two.

There is yet another diametric question , if it is Avyakta, then how do we conceive and conclude that the speculated manifestation is truly of ‘it’. Or can there be a third entity? There couldn’t be a logical answer to this if the concept of “Avyakta”, is true. So, my personal choice then falls on TIME itself being the “Avyakta”. Why ?

As per definition given above -

1.TIME is Omnipresent.

2.TIME is Eternal.

3.TIME is Boundless.

4.TIME is Immutable

And with that premise is it reasonable to speculate that TIME itself is the Source, as well as the principal manifestation; manifestation may occur in phases.

Interestingly, the excerpt quoted above is from a book that itself is a commentary on the Tibetan book called the “Book of Dzyan”, which itself is part of the collection called the “The Books of Kiu-Te”, which is the core of the Mahayana Budhism’s KALCHAKRA TANTRA – The Wheels of TIME.

And Helena Blavatsky herself, in her publication “Voice of the Silence”, poses the question – “Wouldst thou become a YOGI of Time’s Circle? Then, O Lanoo (Disciple).”

Yes, I would. In due course of TIME.

PRAYER TIME

 

 

From Mandukya Upanishad:

Ōmityetadakṣharamidam sarvam, tasyopavyākhyanam,

bhūtam bhavatbhaviṣhyaditi sarvamomkāra eva;

yaccānyat trikālātītam tadapyomkāra eva.

OM! - This Imperishable Word is the whole of this visible universe. Its explanation is as follows: What has become, what is becoming, what will become, - verily, all of this is OM. And what is beyond these three states of the world of TIME, - that too, verily, is OM.

Conclusively TIME is independent of the three worlds, although part of OM. It would, therefore, be logical to construe that TIME is beyond creation or, shall we say, the Creator itself. Encompassing all, the greater being(s), perhaps the ‘Bliss Indivisible’ as defined by Adi Shankaracharya or still more appropriately the ‘Be–Ness’, as purported by the great esoteric Helena P Blavatsky.

Thinkers, world over, have proposed duality of nature being manifested through Sat(Reality, Truth) – Asat (Illusion, Maya). But since these manifestations occur only after the creation (before creation – there is nothing, but ‘Bliss Indivisible’ and/or Be-Ness), surely TIME will have a role to play in the creation. Can it be or rather has it been evidenced?

Both modern Science and the ancient wisdom prompt that the entire universe is perpetually in motion. Every particle in the entire universe is constantly in motion. This motion ceases only on the dissolution of the universe (Pralaya). Conversely, both the modern scientific theories (Multiverse Theories) and the ancient wisdom (Nights of Brahma) also acquiescent that TIME continues its motion during this phase (Pralaya) as well. Truly thus, the TIME itself is a synonym to motion, as without TIME, no motion can be conceived of.

TIME thus,  is the fundamental part of every being in the universe. Occultists visualize the “Spark of Divinity” in every being and if that be so, why are we so ignorant of its role particularly as deeper thinking reveals that TIME can even answer prayers.

MOUNTING TIME

Religion

 

Why the time is ripe? Because a new theory about the origins of the universe- deviating form the BIG BANG- which has traditionally been considered by scientists and esoteric both, as the origin of TIME,  argues that TIME is ETERNAL. BIG BANG being only one of the many bangs caused due to the collision of the universes. Therefore, if we take the BIG BANG as the origin, it can only be Sub-TIME.

Readers may recall the double helix symbol so popularized as the representation of the DNA by the scientists and as sacred symbol by the esoteric. Each point of meeting of the threads may represent the point of collision of the universes and a BIG BANG. But both the threads in the double helix continue on their journey after every collision.

Adi Shankaracharya thought deeply about TIME too, and realized it thus in “Aparokshanubhuti (Direct Self Realization)”, in stanza 111:

111. The non-dual (Brahman) that is bliss indivisible, is denoted by the word ‘TIME’, since it brings into existence, in the twinkling of an eye all beings from Brahman downwards.

Bliss indivisible is probably as complete a definition of Brahman as any. He also considered manifestation of Brahman as TIME, and that is really the key, since he thought it to be the CAUSE of all existence.

Atharva Veda, written many thousand years ago indicates it thus:

“Time, the steed, runs with seven reins (rays), thousand-eyed, ageless, rich in seed. The seers, thinking holy thoughts, mount him, all the beings (worlds) are his wheels. (XIX.53.1)”

“With seven wheels does this Time ride, seven naves has he, immortality is his axle. He carries hither all these beings (universes). Time, the first god, now hastens onward. (XIX.53.2)”

The above paragraphs describe TIME as the immortal, the greatest GOD- creator & governor of all beings as well as affirms that it is possible to mount TIME by “thinking holy thoughts” – a clear pointer towards liberating the consciousness from the limits of TIME.

So, why do we need to either mount it or liberate ourselves from it if it is the CAUSE?

RIPE TIME

 

Readers of my previous blogs would be wondering how in every blog an unrelated topic has been speculated upon. Just to recapitulate:

1. TIME is neither cyclical nor linear.

2. We are all connected to central TIME SERVER.

3. TIME extends across dimensions.

4. TIME itself is dimensionless. There is no difference between yesterday, today and tomorrow.

5. TIME could be in wave form or in wave like motion.

6. There could be a dark(imperceptible) version  of TIME.

Those blogs were written with modern scientific theories as basis. We may now look into the TIMELESS WISDOMS to see any of those are equated.

Without doubt, TIME has been the greatest unsolved mystery of humankind’s evolution. Indeed, the greatest riddles, “Who am I? What is the purpose of my existence?”, etc. cannot be be fully explained without its solution.

India, with her rich heritage of accumulated wisdom, expressed through literature considered sacred, has also thought about TIME much before our time. It will really be worthwhile to examine if any of those wisdoms discuss TIME.

Maybe the time is ripe to discuss TIME.

DARK TIME

 

 

Recently, a detector deep in a mine in Minnesota - an old iron mine - has provided the first hint of an observation of dark matter. Dark matter is a kind of matter thought to comprise about a quarter of the mass in the Universe, as discussed in the last blog. While the recent discovery is by no means a conclusive evidence, it certainly is a pointer towards possibility of existence of dark matter. The properties of dark matter are not yet fully understood except that its existence is required to fully explain the calculations of expansion of universe. Currently it is also beyond human sensory perception, existing only in theory.

 

This brings us to the speculation of whether there could be a DARK TIME as well. Until now we have understood that the universe comprises of matter and energy, probably governed and regulated by TIME. Now the DARK counterparts of matter and energy are being discovered theoretically. So, could the DARK counterpart of TIME exist as well. Unseen, imperceptible, yet manifest and omnipresent. Familiar words but in a different context. Or, is it really?

 

Let us look at it another way. Earlier this year, the scientists studying gravity waves and black holes theorized that our universe could be like a hologram, implying that the limitlessness of the universe that we observe may actually be a projection. Esoteric should love this -Didn't we always tell you that it is all “Maya (illusion)”. So be it. But the holographic universe theory fits in very nicely with Dark matter, energy and TIME, making the string theory, multi-dimensional universes and the branes all fall in line, as all of those could be projections.

 

Will DARK TIME really lead us to enlightenment?

TIME WAVES

 

"O TIME, Without me do not go",

lamented the great Sufi Poet Jalaluddin Rumi, probably conscious of the fact that at some point in time, TIME will go away- leaving  to the realm of speculation the more prosaic questions of what happens to the universe if TIME goes away; and whether the universe can exist at all, even in  particle form, sans' TIME.

One of the speculation could be that the TIME may have a wave like motion instead of being cyclical or linear. After all, the other universal entities like electromagnetic radiation, light, particles in quantum physics or even gravity – all appear to have a wave like motion. Why TIME should be any different. Difficult though it may be to grasp or even perceive of such concepts.

But percepts, like everything else - are only a temporary phenomena. As, they sway from one end to the other in Simple Harmonic Motion establishing the wave principle. One example being that following the acceptance of BIG BANG theory, it was widely believed that although the universe was expanding, the rate of expansion was slowing down. However, the data from Hubble Space Telescope changed this to establish that the rate of expansion of universe was actually accelerating leading to the concepts of dark matter and dark energy. A number of already proven and established theories regarding universe will have to be reworked in light of this the new discovery of dark matter or dark energy.

Yet, if we we consider TIME to be in a wave like motion, it shall  appear sometimes to accelerate motions and sometimes decelerate them.  This revelation  of Wave like motion of TIME could also offer a clue to understand the effects of different  lengths of branes in the extra dimensions- that the scientists are currently envisaging. This may also lend to probable re-working of the  theories of so called BIG BANG and BIG CRUNCH.

But, the biggest advantage of this speculation, however, is that it lends to endless TIME continuum. Poet Rumi, may not have to lament.
