In Newtonian sense “now" is a frame of time infinitely short. He invented the infinitesimal calculus for this reason: instantaneous velocity is a derivative. Imagine that you watch an event, and i watch the same event together with you. We occupy different positions and the information (light, sound) from that event reaches us in different, even if very close, instants. So, even if apparently we perceive something simultaneously, there's always a “dt" difference. Nobody has the same “now" of anybody else.

One of the first things that Einstein did when developing his theory of relativity was to prove (to his own satisfaction, anway) that there is no absolute “now.” This was to prepare the ground for his equations showing that time and space would distort when high velocities were involved, so that two people travelling at different speeds from the same starting point would end up with their clocks showing different times. So everything is relative to something else, and there is no absolute time nor absolute space, just a strange combination of the two, spacetime. But it is only a theory, and maybe someone will come up with some radically different explanation some day. Anyways..thanks for the insightful thought provoking replies.

What do you find attractive in a pussy ? Do you like fingering it ?

Is it true that women can have multiple orgasms that last for quite few minutes?

Yes I watch porn . I dont remember exactly. I started out pretty straight. Only watching guy and girl scenes. But as the years went by..I started developing attraction to dicks. I still like girls tho .but i also like dicks .doesn't that make bisexual?

But I like girls from head to toe .I like a pretty face..Nice tits ..Big round ass etc.the only part I find gross is the pussy . I don't watch gay porn .it's disgusting. I watch shemale porn to see hot girls with dick . Also I m planning to marry a girl before I hit my 30s. I classified myself as bisexual.

Let's sat you awakened to infinity or infinite love or spiritual solipsism....how to make sure you are right? How to know you are not deluded? Basically I'm asking what anchors all human knowledge and insights? How do we know anything at all is a tangent question. Some might say "direct experience "..but what if direct experience is fooling us ? After all direct experience does indeed fool us every night when we are sleeping (dreams)....so who's to say that your insight from direct experience is not a deception? Hope my question is clear . Any pointers appreciated ?

If physical time doesn't exist and time is a lense through which we intuit the world', then everything that has and will happen must already be there. If time is the fourth dimension (because we cannot imagine what the fourth dimension would look like think of a 2D cube as space and a 3D cube as space-time) and we only perceive cross-sections of this complete cube, then the future is already there, decided, and hence determined. Many would want to avoid this determinist consequence. Incidentally, it doesn't bother me in the slightest.

Think of deep sleep ..don't you enjoy sleeping? I think it's the highest form of joy possible. Total formlessness .total emptiness. That's the true definition of heaven .heaven is not some garden filled with your favorite food and sexy women. Heaven is precisely like deep sleep. Imagine that you went to sleep and never woke up . That would be the greatest thing ever .total freedom. Total unlimitedness. But of course eventually you will get bored of existing as the Godhead for eternity after eternity and you will decide to dream again .only for you to long again to the nirvana of emptiness. And the cycle continues over and over over again.

@Benton i won't ask you how you came up with it or why you're so sure the present moment is Al there is for my pov . The problem is that if, as you say, "there is no future or past" and the present is all that really exists, existence is so incredibly fleeting it makes things seem pretty insignificant don't you think? If that doesn't bother you, this will: We live (quite consciously) in the present moment right? And to live consciously in the present moment one would have to be aware of one's doing so. But, of course, if the present moment lasts merely 10^-43/sec then how can one be aware of the fact that one is in it? One cannot even be aware of it! There's no time! (And yet you claim that the present moment "is your perceptions") You cannot use the word "Now!" meaningfully because it takes longer for you to say "now" than it takes for the present moment to pass. If a one-syllable word cannot even denote the moment you intend it to denote, how can talk of the present carry any meaning? How are we to live presently in a mathematical point?

@Benton is your now the same as my now ?

Bro..33 is super young..your life has just started. ? I'm not necessarily saying it's "always:" better than waking life . But don't you deep down desire to disappear forever? At least from time to time when you are feeling suicidal for example . I think this longing for eternal rest increases as we age older because the older you get the more sick and tired we are with life . Old people sleep a lot just like babies btw .

@r0ckyreed thanks for the solid advice. Truly appreciate it. ?

I'm 25 .I study philosophy in uni. Many people told me that I can't make a good career with a philosophy degree .but I didn't listen to them. And decided to study the thing I wanted to study . Now I have a lot of confusions about how should I live my life. I have 60-80 years at my disposal..how am I going to spend them is the question that gives me insomnia. First of all I struggle with a bunch of addictions and bad habits like smoking cigarettes..masturbating. watching porn ..eating terrible food . Now I understand that I should stop these activities right away. But every now and then I find myself slipping back to my old habits. I need sense of direction in my life. I'm lost .I don't know where I'm heading towards. I I don't know where will I be in 5 years from now .probably a dark place if didn't get my shit together and did the right thing. But the main problem is how do I know what is the right thing to do? There is too much confusion and too much conflicting information out there about what's healthy and good for you and what's not . How do I know which religion should I follow? How do I know which diet should I eat ? How do I figure out the perfect sexual lifestyle for me ? How do I find a good career that pays me enough money and that I enjoy at the same time? So many confusions .I don't even know where should I start. Any tips or advice appreciated.

For me the penetration is the last thing that turns me on. Having a blowjob makes more sexually excited than fucking. Am i abnormal? Maybe. But I do find 90 %, of porm boring ,mechanical and unrealistic.

@Blackhawk let me ask the question in a different way..do you enjoy sleeping? I know it's a complete blank, so there is no room for enjoyment or not ..but don't you always desire to sleep soundly? Why do you think that is ?

I understand what you're saying. It's more of a gap in experience rather than an actual experience. But still you feel a difference between a night when you get a good sleep and a sleepless night when you experience insomnia. How do you explain that difference if sleep doesn't exist?

I like making music and streaming YouTube videos (I'm not gonna share my YouTube channel here)., but I have few views and I can’t build a career around that. Also like I said I study philosophy and to be honest thats not gonna make a good career and earn me a good chunk of money . Maybe I need to find a job ASAP while I'm finishing my philosophy degree . It completely make me lose motivation. I feel guilty when i do it .it reduces my energy and overall make me depressed and unproductive. I think I should stop completely.

I'm really shocked that some peeps here deny that they sleep at night. Maybe you guys should take a break from spiritual "work "and revert back to normal life. Just a thought.

Relax guys .I sleep every night. Thank god . You guys enjoy your insomnia

False. I experienced deep sleep every night . Of course its always a memory of the actual thing .because the actual thing is just pure blank .pure void . But you can actually record a video of yourself next night you go bed . You can record yourself and see how you lose consciousness during the night. It's really embarrassing for me to mention that. A human being is denying that he sleeps every night. It's just hilarious ?

So you basically are denying that deep sleep even exists ? Then why you struggle so much and feel like you're losing your goddamm mind when you have insomnia? What are you longing for when you have insomnia? Look ..this sort of argument can be applied to anything and it's just pointless. You can claim that you didn't have dinner yesterday because it's just a thought in the present moment. Is that really your best bet ?

@MrTouchdown are you @WokeBloke ?

Yes that's the magic of it . Times flying without you even notice it. That's what eternity means .its a state of such completeness that there is not even time to it . Few hours pass and yet from your pov it is as if few seconds have passed. Isn't that miraculous?

@Kksd74628 in your opinion..what's the most beautiful thing in life ..and why ?
