i guess, as marsha has pointed out, your life can flash before your eyes. 'life' 'flash' - strange isn't it - the idea that your whole life can happen in a flash....but that's how it happens - that's the truth of the experience.

timelessness means eternity. the definition of timelessness is eternity.
time is finite/ timelessness is infinite. sq/dq

psychedelic drugs can help produce timeless feelings and they do feel 'eternal' - as if there is an ocean of 'now'. however it is a better idea to discipline the mind through diet, exercise, meditation, yoga etc and reach the timeless dimension this way. 

maybe another way to describe all this is to equate the mythos with the eternal and the logos with the temporal....
