The past of time is recorded and remembered, but does this past of time have any other existence in reality ?
Well, if the hands of a clock move from point A to point B, time has passed, perhaps a nano second of time that
is not recorded and remembered in the usual manner. Has this past been lost or does this pass still exist? It
partially exists because the current reality is just a nano second ahead of the past. The past exists in the
current reality minus the changes of reality by motion. To determine if the past exist without time, reality
should be defined as the continuation of changing existence–mass, fields and waves in immaterial space.
Motion of the hands of a clock form point A to point B resulting in a nano second is just motion of the hands
of a clock from point A to point B, not time; it is a measurement of motion of the hands on a clock. So what
has happened to the past? There is no past, present, or future, only the continuation of existence–mass,
fields and waves in immaterial space. With conceptual time, the existence of the past is arguable; however,
conceptual time is not included in existence–mass, fields and waves in immaterial space.
Memory is the secret.
To live in the moment is to live with no memory.
A lifeless particle…energy with no ability to collect and store experiences that can be used to guide future interactivities - will - and to understand.
Without memory there is no pattern recognition.
Past does not exist since it has been determined and cannot be changed.
But past is continuously manifesting presence - present.
Existence refers to this dynamic, interactive, determining present.
Organic minds interpret it as appearance, after-the-fact.
We all participate in the present in the determination of the future, and experience the consequences after-the-fact, due to the time necessary to perceive and process sensory input, i.e. interactivity.
This gives the impression of being a passive observer, when all are active, willful, participants.
Memory - experience + DNA - are included in the process of evaluating and choosing an action.
Change is how our brain experiences this fluctuating dynamic state of flux, by juxtaposing sensory input with what has been stored in memory - short-term memories - and, in more sophisticated organism’s, by juxtaposing both sensory input + short-term experiences ([size=80]memories[/size]) with long-term memories, most of which are stored as genetic automated reactions.
This occurs in a time period determined by inheritance - natural selection determining cognitive speeds.
So, we adapt - learn - by training ourselves to automatically adjust our interactions to ongoing interactivity; we cultivate a specific reaction guided by the past, stored as experiential memories, overriding our genetic impulses.
Control is necessary. Denying the body its naturally selected impulses.
This is free-will.
The degree of willful control increases accessible options, that may transcend immediate circumstances.
Free-will does not mean ‘free from causality or from necessity’ - that understanding is the product of thousands of years of Abrahamic indoctrination…just as is our modern/postmodern understanding of ‘god’ or ‘morality.’
Thething about time being recorded and remembered is all just based on a subjective perception that highly flawed and infinitesimally myopic compared to the state of where things were in reality at the “time” they occurred and what actually happened, and all that is just based on a subjective limited perception. But anyway, what happened to the past? Well, the past doesn’t exist, it never existed really, the past is just where things used to be. How could “where things used to be”, exist?
Well Block theory asserts that the past and present exists but the future does not exist. This theory is supported to some degree by spacetime, but I disagree.
There is no ontological time; therefore, time does not exist. Time is not material; I cannot find it except in practical applications. Only one
immaterial can exist and that is space.
Isn’t all that^ just simply a question of semantics?
The fact that all things done cannot be undone, renders the past obsolete… it’s distant memories only there to serve as warnings or lessons to learn from.
the clock is ticking so time is passing us by no need for interaction only intermediate correlation between time and being that is Heidegar’s superman quoting that God is dead, that there is no God only time and only being German philosophers have long been engaging in philosophical discourse since thee 18th century particularly enlightement philosophy time was first discovered as a sundial therefore it exists in the passage of seasons their is no hindrance to the speculation that their is a death of time because it is inevitable past is history the future is a mystery and the present is a gift the past cannot be taken back once it is over it is lost in time
The past does not exist, except in memory, because it has been determined and cannot be changed.
What we call ‘existence’ is the determining - the dynamic interactive present.
Time is how consciousness, using its own dynamic interactive organic presence, relates with the cosmos - changing relative to other.
Space is the projection of another’s probabilities for interaction - its field of effect.
We perceive space, as mostly void and dark, because we cannot perceive patterns - either because they are too subtle, too complex, or non-existent, given that energy can also lack pattern and be chaotic.
Yet, space has a measurable temperature, because it is not truly void and empty - all is energy.
Existence is energy.
Time can be conceptualized as a pattern’s rhythm, frequency, relative to a standard, such as the perceiving mind’s cellular rhythms, frequencies, or relative to something else, like a quartz crystal, or a pendulum or the sun…
this juxtaposition is of change, or of vibrations, since Energy can also be described as a vibration/oscillation, state of turmoil, with a particular consistent rhythm, frequency…iuf it is ordered…and order is all organisms can perceive.
So, for life all seems to be ordered, patterned, following laws of repeating consistency.
Time is the perception of this comparison of change…describing interactivity: attraction, repulsion.
This is why time is relative.
Space is this relativity perceived as probability of interaction.
An objects form defines its range of effect, its perceived probability range of interactivity.
