Time, a Very Precious Gift

Written by Mathew Naismith

Timeless Consciousness: There are many people within this conscious reality who don’t or can’t see how precious of a gift time is, it allows us to experience all of what consciousness is to start with but we have trouble seeing time as a gift. I think the reason for this has to do with the kind of consciousness we are existing under, it’s very divided and quite destructive but not all of the consciousness’s of time are this unbalanced, actually very few are especially to this extent.

What actually gives us a balanced consciousness, a balanced mentality to exit by? Our connectedness to a consciousness that is still, a consciousness that is motionless and a consciousness that has no divides or separation, a consciousness that is one with itself because there is no other self.  This consciousness is of course of timelessness for it’s this timeliness that gives this consciousness it’s stillness, this non-separateness of self and the more aware of this still  non-separated consciousness we become within time, the more balance this gives us within the consciousness’s  of time and the less destructive we become.

Religion: Yes religion has tried to reconnect us to this timeless consciousness and to a certain extent this works however if it wasn’t for the ego becoming so controlling, religion would have worked even better.  This controlling ego is quite apparent especially at present, the Middle East is a prime example and so is the child molesting’s within certain Christian religions. Once the people of a religion become disconnected from this timeless consciousness these people become destructive.

We are at present existing in a very destructive consciousness brought about by our disconnectedness to this timeless consciousness, any other more constructive consciousness is going to seem like heaven to us. More and more people are becoming aware and reconnecting to this timeless consciousness because it’s very appealing to us as it’s meant to be appealing to us.  The more of us that become reconnected the less destructive we will be within time, we don’t however have to disconnect ourselves from time altogether to bring forth a better more constructive consciousness to exist by, all we need to do is become aware of this timeless consciousness and by doing so we quite automatically become more connected .  Religion in my mind needs to un-focus on itself and focus more on this timeless consciousness.

Automatically Reconnecting: Would a more constructive consciousness within time need to focus so much on this timeless consciousness to bring balance within their consciousness, their mentality?  No, for the main reason they are already automatically connected to this timeless consciousness, they can then focus more on the consciousness’s of time expressing even more of what consciousness is.  They can live in an utterly heavenly like existence because all of their energy is put into the consciousness’s of time instead of timelessness.  However in my mind we do need to focus more on this timeless consciousness to bring balance within our existence in time, once we have done this, we will quite automatically bring balance back again within our consciousness, our mentality . I do indeed believe we can achieve a heavenly like existence for all if we become less ignorant and more aware of this consciousness of timelessness, surely it can’t be this easy?   

Intentions: Because everything is consciousness there is no push and pull involved here or there shouldn’t be, there is no action reaction which just causes more reactions. This is why by just becoming aware without an intention works, you become aware without pushing anything away to become aware and because everything is consciousness, just becoming aware without pulling in this awareness works. I know it’s difficult to see that everything is consciousness especially at first but once you realise this you can begin to become aware without intentions. 

It is also difficult to become aware of this consciousness, especially of the consciousness of timelessness, without an intention, “I need become aware because of my/our predicament”.  This is an intention which causes an effect, a reaction which will cause even further reaction thus adding to our predicament not taking away from it. This is why some prayers, meditations, chanting and so on work when others don’t, the more intention we have while practicing in these spiritual practices the more we are actually adding to our predicaments.   

This is why a good meditation is about thoughtlessness, there is no intention because we are not in thought.  The trick with meditation is to not have an intention to enter into a thoughtless mode to start with, allow your mind to just flow and go with the flow of thought and after a while you will quite automatically be within this thoughtless mode.    

In all it’s all about how we are becoming reconnected to this still non-separated consciousness of timelessness, if we do it with intentions, we will not in my mind succeed at totally reconnecting but if we do it without an intention, I think all will be fine within this precious gift of consciousness of time.  There is nothing better and magical than bringing balance to a consciousness including our own, it’s quite exhilarating.
