[MD] Reality Lies Outside Linear Time

[Khoo Hock Aun]

Hi Platt,

Okay, looks like sleep will have to wait a while longer.

Sure, we experience and observe change - that is the time-based reality we
have constructed for ourselves in this subject object metaphysical world. We
tire, we are refereshed: these are the changes we experience.

But no matter how you, me and 6.5 billion other individuals also experience
it, its still an
arbitrary experience.

I remember posting on this before, step outside the common notions of
time-based reality, and we experience only the eternal now.

It is not a paradox if we see one the subset of the other.

Thanks
