CH2 – NO TIME (You are here)

Crunchy Life

Blog Post – Ch 2

Time

Since my early 30’s I’ve tried to be NON EVANGELICAL in my approach to truth. For that reason, I am hesitant to write about time since it us accepted like gravity but I must for this book to be effective. You need to be in a sense of awe for time to feel like it has stopped. My contention then is that you are in luck mister! There is no time, it is an illusion that can tear you down and block manifestation. In this chapter, I introduce you to a concept of NO TIME. If you don’t get it that’s ok but you must codify it as a possibility you have not yet awakened to. 

Count the planets in the Milky Way. Got the number? It is 8 of course. Now, contrast that number 8 to the number of Solar Systems, or galaxies NASA can estimate exist based on images from the Webb telescope: 300 Trillion.

Think of something you did in the past, it can be long ago or even in the last hour, it doesn’t matter. Got your thing that occurred? Ok, now try this. Go and flip me off in that memory. What’s that? You say you can’t control your hand in the past? That’s right, because it doesn’t really exist, it is a story you tell yourself about what happened. You can discover the same amazement (?) performing that experiment in the future. I hope this is all you need to at least consider the present moment, or that which IS, as your only reality and in fact, as I hope to show, the only reality that has ever been or ever will be. 

So if a sense of awe about life in the here and now is sensible for you to explore, your dream life is waiting.

Are you still with me? If you can’t accept time as a human construct with that Proverb or parable, try a comparison exercise. Count the planets in the Milky Way. Got the number? It is 8 of course. Now, contrast that number 8 to the number of Solar Systems, or galaxies NASA can estimate exist based on images from the Webb telescope: 300 Trillion. Note: Not 300 Trillion planets or stars but rather the unthinkable number of planets as multiplied by 300 trillion solar systems that house them. Some solar systems have multiple suns. Alpha Centauri is one of those. We don’t know that all galaxies are limited in their number of planets either. Are you dizzy like I was when I thought that for the first time? So, in comparison to the known universe, my planet is one in 300 trillion galaxies, let that sink in. This is a good way to get perspective on our value to the universe. We are a speck of dust that lives a very short lifespan in accordance with time. But if you take away time and focus on the here and now only, it is often called consciousness, you realize our life span is a speck of dust in the span of time as humans teach it. I hope for the purposes of your own spiritual growth you can find a way to that reality: the reality of NO TIME.

We have control only of now. I will expand on how important this is to your desires in this book.

So, let’s review, ch 1 was about awe. Ch 2 is about grasping the here and now and seeing past and future as unconscious things, we have no control over them. We have control only of now. I will expand on how important this is to your desires in this book. So if a sense of awe about life in the here and now is sensible for you to explore, your dream life is waiting. Ch 3 will start your process of manifesting what you desire, no ifs ands or buts. What you want desires you. Read on birdees.

Your essence is worth loving but have you met it … you need to do that. Before any manifesting, love the inner being. 🦜 c o m e what mae.
