More UNITED than we realize!

Space Time

This is a topic that has been bouncing around in my head the last few weeks so I thought I'd share and see what you all thought about it.
As we know the Human concept of time is based on the movement of heavenly bodies. Specifically the movement of the Earth around the Sun. What I've been pondering is what is time outside of our Solar System? How would our aging process be effected if we were not subject to the movements of our planet. Do we grow old if there are no days to count? Do our bodies deteriorate if there is no gravitational factor? Your thoughts?

From what I gather from the esoteric text of the sacred scriptures: actually from the first word of the Torah: BERESHIT is that the time/space continuum is a direct result of the fact that our world is wholely based upon the opposites: hence space and time. Just as there can be no east without a west there can be no space without time: four dimensional reality. No matter how minute the space is it takes time to formulate it.

Now your question concerning aging if there was no time. It is a fact that the mind stays eternally young if it is free from disease: almost as if we are eternally in our teenage years. However, the body ages because of the duration of being in the world of opposites: i.e. the time/space continuum.

Though I am a Catholic years ago I studied Christian Science and I know that it works because I was cured of several illnesses: drinking (36 years ago) and smoking (33 years ago)). If you have not been cured instantaneously there is no way that I can explain that to you. I do not know how it really works though I have benefited from it efficacies.

I mentioned this about to preface the story that is told in Christian Science text book about a doctor visiting an insane asylum. A woman was pointed out to him and he was asked what he would think her age was. He immediately as most people did said she was about early twenties. She was in her mid seventies. The asylum use to be her family home later turned into an asylum for the mentally ill. She was about to be married and was left standing at the altar. She lived that moment waiting for her husband to be for more than half a century. She believed she was young so she stayed young.

The New Testament tells us we are in the world but not of the world. I do not believe that humans were meant to live in this world but for a short time. Who would want to? Things get old and decay and when you get old enough you really have heard it all and it is time, as Joseph Campbell would say, for a new show.

Also there is the Transcenent Function that wipes the complaints of the mind away as if forgiving sins as if the facade of the world was merely dust on a surface or superinscription on the soul. Wiping such diseses from the mind as if they were a mirage demonstrates the mind is eternally young and can not age.

Time operates the same everywhere in creation, as far as we know.

Most motions in our environment are those that are good for us. Without some of the harmful sound and light, we'd do better.

Our muscles and bones require gravity. To travel longer distances in space we need better artificial gravity.

This age's scripture does say, "There was a time when man was not worth mention."

Investigation of the scientific view of the universe leads us towards the idea that there may not have always been time, or atleast it may have been different.

No wonder why the seers of old have been refering to God as Addahr (The Time) or in context like The Fool to time: Not confined by time, realized by awareness of it, and operating it.
