The Now

[Guest guest]

That which we have named The Now or Present is only a conceptual construct and

as such is forever condemned to another conceptual construct that we have named

The Past.

 

We can never experience either The Now or the Past because they exist only in

the mind which is itself......a conceptual construct.........as is the " we " that

seeks to experience them.

I think that the past and the FUTURE are indeed illusory, but the

present is the only real.

The " I " that thinks that it is the thinker of the above thought is the mother of

misunderstanding.

 

Any belief that it holds concerning things conceptual is part of the illusion.

 

If what you call the " present " is real;

Bring it out here and sit it on the table.......Let's have a look at it.
