Exploring the Temporal Interplay
Our mathematical examination of time unveils a complex interaction between the past and the future, depicted not as a singular point but as a significant line. This line, termed the ‘happening’, extends with a length described by the square root of 2, offering a new perspective on time’s dimensions.
Defining Time’s Elements
We categorize the past as ‘happened’, the future as ‘will happen’, and the line that binds them as ‘happening’. This conceptualization reflects our lived experience, situated in the ‘happening’, where the past influences us, and the future awaits.
The Past and Future: Interactive Forces
The past and future, though beyond our direct experience, are not dormant. They are dynamic, interacting continually to create the ‘happening’. This interaction is our present, a blend of the past’s echoes and the future’s whispers.
The Singularity Journey: Understanding the Infinite Past
Venturing into the singularity, the realm of the infinite past, we encounter a dimensionless point where all past events converge. This abstract concept challenges our understanding of the complex, layered nature of the past.
The ‘Happening’: A Realm of Possibility and Measurement
The ‘happening’ stands in stark contrast to the intangible past and future, offering a space where measurement and calculation become possible. Here, we can define physical properties like length and thickness, enabling us to calculate speed, distance, and the emergence of time. The line’s measurable nature, approximately 4.72 nanoseconds, exemplifies this.
Emergence of Time
Time, absent in both the singularity and the potential future, emerges uniquely within the ‘happening’. This emergent property is crucial, giving the line not only existence but also a vibrational quality, a result of connecting past and future.
The Transient Nature of the ‘Happening’
Contrary to the immutable past and the endless potential of the future, the ‘happening’ line possesses a transient nature. It vibrates and holds significance only in the present. For instance, the concept of living dinosaurs illustrates this: they exist in both the singularity and the potential future, but the line connecting these two, labeled “Dinosaur” in our context, does not currently exist in the present. It could manifest at any moment, yet it requires actualization – the creation of a measurable, calculable line that bridges past and future.
The Example of Dinosaurs: Understanding Actualization
The example of dinosaurs adds clarity to this concept. Though they are a part of both the past and potential future, the absence of a present connecting line signifies the need for actualization. Actualization is the process of forming this measurable, calculable line, making the abstract concept a present reality.
Conclusion
In summary, the ‘Eternal Now’, from a mathematical perspective, is the interaction line between the infinite past and the open future. This line, the ‘happening’, is where time emerges, a space of vibrational existence, defined by our present experiences. The line’s presence is not permanent but contingent on actualization, highlighting the fluid nature of time and our unique position in its continuum.
