Mind stuck in "Time"

The mind is always running behind the experience, or tying to cut it off, but never truly involved NOW.

Try being involved RIGHT NOW with exactly what is taking place AS it is taking place. Are you always a second behind? So, NOW has left and "you" are wandering in the past.

To TRULY experience NOW, the Ulitmate Reality, that "you" must be seen for what it IS. Nothing more than a thought running a second behind (or ahead of) Reality. Not real... not real.

hi,Holly, this is hamsterbear from the message board.

Your blog is lovely.

don't you actually think that the nature of mind is time?

Yet we are not going to live without it.

However realizing our true nature is not in the realm of time is another thing.

Hi Hamsterbear!
So good to hear from you! And no, I don't think the nature of mind is time, but that the mind is always running a second behind the actual moment... it can never truly be involved RIGHT NOW. Of course, ego is a byproduct of mind misidentified, so ego itself is also always never involved RIGHT NOW. When Truly experiencing the moment RIGHT NOW, mind isn't involved. It can't be... it only relives the experience slightly behind the actual experience.

The Nature Of Reality, however, is completely without time. It is Timeless... Eternal... the Ever Present Reality untouched by Time or its drama... Ha ha ha ha ha!

Sorry... I actually meant to AGREE with your comment! Ha ha ha ha ha! Yes... the nature of mind is time... past and future, but never right NOW!
