Very true and I'm enjoying your videos! I was once contemplating the teaching that "time is an illusion." Wasn't sure how to understand what was meant by "illusion," so I changed it to "fantasy" or "imagination." Then it clicked... past and future require me to imagine pictures in my head, but where are they when I stop creating those pictures? Nowhere, vanished. Like a dream or fantasy! So time is a fantasy. I had been imagining past and future so often that I mistook my imagination for reality. It's so normalized in society, as well. People so often ask each other about past, future, plans, desires, memories, etc. All require imagining something other than "here and now."
Julie❤ ,this noticing happened to me on it's own (did i spelled it right ?) ,it happened on it's own during the times i mentioned previously ,but currently i have added something in my practice because things were getting painful, this might slow down or backtrack my self realization but i guess until my real nature is realized i have to regulate to the external.
On point 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
