Some people struggle with the concept that ALL time is happening simultaneously – past, present and future.
Having had a group consciousness decision to play out our lifetimes on Earth utilizing a linear time format, I can see how the whole “it’s-all-happening-now” concept is hard to swallow. When my team first brought it to me, I really struggled. My younger mind went around and around, making me feel like I was stuck on a perpetual mental merry-go-round with no way to get off.
I finally placed my conundrum in my stewing pot of my virtual stove top in the back of my brain, and told my brain, “When you have worked it out, and you can present it to me in a way that I can understand, let me know,” and promptly turned up the heat to let it simmer.
A few years (yes, years) later, I had a spontaneous epiphany while walking past the bookshelf to enter the kitchen. I suddenly understood the concept, and it made total sense to me. Linear time is an illusion. It is a 3D construct agreed upon by 3D’s mass consciousness, to keep us locked into the linear construct. It gave us a past, present and future, and if you think about it, it has trapped us in a physical experience.
I think T.S. Eliot’s lengthy observation and explanation can be found in “FOUR QUARTETS”. In the Quartet No. 1: Burnt Norton. The poem said this about time:
“Time past and time future
Allow but a little consciousness.
To be conscious is not to be in time.”
He then goes on share his observations* on how – when we are in time (playing the time game) – we can have our physical senses engaged in our 3D construct. In other words, we can have physical experiences when we engage in time. I highly recommend you look the “Four Quartets” up and give it a read.
Had I known about some of Eliot’s work when I was younger, I may have caught on a lot sooner to the whole linear time scheme.
We, the beings inhabiting the planet Earth and having physical experiences, have entered into a new, never before pathway for those who wish to participate – and are ready to participate – to add our consciousness to the other dimensions beyond the 3D experience. We are able to stretch beyond being stuck in a linear time trap.
This means (generalized and streamlined) that we can step out of 3D and begin engaging with all – all which is happening now. In linear time-speak – we are able to have knowledge of, and access to, our past lives, present life and future lives NOW. This is because all is happening now, and we are waking up to see that time is an illusion.
One can, however, be blocked by one’s own walls and belief systems; that’s what free will is all about. You can keep yourself in the linear time trap or not. Pretty cool, eh?
So I challenge you to begin to stretch beyond the time illusion, and step out of the 3D time trap. And, if I’m not mistaken, quite a few people may have had a glimpse outside of linear time during the lock-downs. Many lost touch with time.
But, I do ask that you don’t get on a perpetual mental merry-go-round.
