J. Krishnamurti had an interesting take on this... for purposes of

explanation, separating 'psychological time' and 'clock time' into

different categories. According to him, what is sometimes

called 'Eternal Now' is the end of (or lack of) psychological time or

the sense of 'time passing', although this does not negate the

perception of time in the manifest... namely, milk getting sour if

left out, numbers on a clock changing, the body appearing to age, and

so forth...

 

Still, this seems to 'split reality' (at least as definition -- why

would 'the rest of the manifest' be different from 'here'?) and is

not entirely satisfactory.

 

I think you're right: Solving the riddle of " the questioner "

completely 'solves' this (or renders it unimportant). No answer can

satisfy thought, which is manifesting the manifest and thus 'has no

business asking questions about what it creates' :-).

 

Love,

 

Tim
