Do you need time?
We associate everything in our lives with time. Our brains are wired to differentiate the events in our lives because of time, or is it really?
Something which has already happened belongs to the past, something which is happening now belongs to the present, and our dreams or desires may reside in the future. Past, present and future are the landmarks or milestones of time or we can say time may not exist without them.
We are quite fortunate to have an understanding of time. But it has also dominated us , created doubts in our mind for the future, brought tears because of our past, and hardly made us live in the present when the past and future dominated us.
Imagine, there is no past and future and so there is no time. Everything and every event exists in the ‘Now’ or present, there would be no worries, no regrets, no grief and no restlessness. But at the same time there will be no memories, no desires, no tears , no life and even death. What would be the meaning of our existence? Just a vague presence in the cosmos.
And so past and future,life and death, the circle of time brings meaning in our lives . Without it nothing makes sense or rather there will be no reason to live or exist.
