~ ∞ ~ The New View of Time – Time Equals Life (Quantum Nonlocality) ~ ∞ ~ |
This chapter takes pretty much every idea and concept we have encountered thus far in this section and puts them to creative use. The purpose is of course to continue to expand one’s thinking, to open up new perspectives and ways of seeing. In so doing, Life – emphasis on the capital letter, or Living Life, in short – gets a little more clarification.
As you have lived your life, you must have realized that all time is always now – everything happens now, does it not? This means that in actuality, there is no distance between past, present, and future. Every moment is therefore this very same moment that happens now but with a completely different perspective, which makes it a different experience altogether, you see? When we are talking about the events that occur in our lives we need a way to talk about them, and therefore we have collectively agreed upon the idea of time which represents the distance between events – it is a way of describing a process, you see? Without the concept of time, there would not be memories – otherwise we would perceive those events as experience rather than memory.
The concept of time, in and of itself, is one of the parameters which defines the idea of physical reality, in which the concept of time is experienced. Physical reality, in turn, is a function of creation of time, you see? All physical reality is therefore an extension of the concept of time, which goes on to say that every concept that comes from the idea of physical reality, or is within physical reality – is therefore an extension or offshoot of the original idea of creating time – which is also the same as creating space, you see? Furthermore, the concept of energy is logically created after the idea of time – in which to experience the concept of energy changing into matter. And so you see, matter is formed from energy, which is formed from time. This goes on to suggest that not only is the physical reality created from time, but so is life as we know life to exist, you see? So now the question becomes: What creates time? Well, let us come back to that later, shall we?
You might get a handle on this new paradigm changing view, if you imagine the following: picture a car speeding down the road; now, speed up the image infinitely, and you can see that the car disappears – so, do we have any proof of its existence? Time gives legitimacy to its existence – in other words, time gives proof to the existence of matter; and this means that without time we don’t exist in a physical form – state of movement in the universe is equal to our existence. When we die, there is no movement and everything comes to a stop – frozen in time, as it were. Our physical existence is equal to the movement of the car, and beyond our physical existence – in death, is when the car stops; but the peculiar thing is that the car never actually really stops – it only divides, breaks up into smaller bits and pieces, elementary particles, protons, neutrons, electrons, wavelengths. And so you see, every living thing lives within the continuous cycle of birth and death, where the remains of one become the nutrients for the other – nothing is ever wasted, everything just transforms into different forms at various times.
To continue with this analogy: our bodies are vehicles in which we travel, but it is the traveller that is the “I,” and not the vehicle in which the road is travelled, which goes on to say that even though our physical form will eventually come to the end of its lifespan, the Spirit that dwells within will continue. Even though our physical being is gradually decaying, our spiritual being can be renewed day after day, week after week, year after year, and even century after century, millenia after millenia – into eternity and beyond, you see? From this, we can clearly draw the conclusion that time is the only true unit of measure, and that time is what gives birth to matter and energy, and furthermore gives rise to physical reality, you see? Therefore, one can say that time equates life – time is unity. If one seeks to unify quantum theory with space, time, gravity, and cosmology, they would ask themselves: What is the common denominator? As time seems to be the key, equating to life, it links both time and life to consciousness and its inherent awareness. And so you see, beyond time, the common denominator is awareness – all life has awareness in varying degrees, or more aptly, all Life is Awareness – Living Awareness that comes from Spirit.
So, let us entertain this idea a little more and push it even further, if not for any other reason than to stimulate and expand our thinking. As mentioned earlier, the creation of time is also the creation of space. When we stretch the aforementioned a little further, we can realize that time in its fine-tuned structure could very well be considered as being information that is distributed across the space. Now, let us introduce a contemporary tool by which we can understand this further. By now, many of us are familiar with the blockchain technology. Blockchain is a decentralized, distributed, growing list of records, called blocks, that are linked using cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and raw data. A blockchain database is managed autonomously using a peer-to-peer network. If you think about it, time itself can be considered to be the original blockchain technology. You see, everything that has ever happened, happens, and will happen – is being recorded and stored in the very fabric of space-time. So in this sense, space-time is life’s own blockchain, as it were.
Because time(life) in its very core is information stored in the fabric of space-time, the event(s) that are recorded into this life’s very own blockchain, could easily be re-created based on that information. You see, everything we touch upon is imprinted with our energy signature, which is the extension of our own consciousness. And so you see, that very energy signature contains not only the original intention(s) behind activities in that particular point in space-time, but also every thought and feeling that was present in that moment. In other words, it is the overall blueprint of that exact experience in that moment of time(life). Now, one might ask: What does that even mean? Well, if that is not obvious, let that remain a mystery for a while; maybe the mystery will reveal itself in the next chapter.

The previous realization is quite easily explained in the scientific terms by using the analogy of a Quantum Bit (Qubit) that is used in Quantum Computing. Quantum Mechanical principles that are derived from the Quantum Physics, can easily be utilized in Quantum Computing. Qubits are more versatile than standard bits, because they can exist in three states instead of just two; they allow us to put bits of infromation into their ‘0’ and ‘1’ states at the same time.
These same principles can also be utilized when we talk about the nature of time itself. When the analogy of a Quantum Bit is used: the state ‘0’ would represent the past, the state ‘1’ the future, and the entangled state naturally would represent both at the same time. In other words, the entangled state is the Quantum Wave Function that can be equated to Living Vibrating Life itself, you see?

Because the Qubit can be in both states at once – it means that also time can be observed as this type of combination of states: past, present, and future can therefore be viewed as the properties of a Time(Life) function. It is only through the collapse of the Quantum Wave Function (resulting from the action of focused attention on observation) when the Infinite becomes seemingly Finite.
Quantum Entanglement acts as a nonlocal bridge – uniting the small and large-scale happenings, which means that events are not localized to any specific points in space or in time. Nonlocal events are unmediated, and thus they require no energetic signal to “carry” them; they are unmitigated, so they don’t become weaker with increasing distance. Nonlocal phenomena are omnipresent, so they are everywhere at once – meaning that there is no necessity for them to go anywhere, simply because they are already there. This makes nonlocal events immediate, so they require no travel time; nonlocal events are infinite in time, present at all moments – past, present, and future at once; ultimately meaning that they are eternal.

The fascinating thing about this is that if time is observed in three dimensions, and this triplet is seen as the property of a wave function – it changes everything, making time and life to be exactly the very same thing. This realization will be the most significant “new discovery” in the scientific community, when people really start to get it. There are already a few scientists who have understood this in some way – one of them being Lee Smolin, who has written a book called Time Reborn: From the Crisis in Physics to the Future of the Universe.
