Here and Now

10/18/2021

 
Question: Totality, Wholeness, Nonsubstantiality—you are surely referencing now, are you not? (Now is defined in your glossary as …without time. Not to be contrasted with “then,” or confused with “the present moment,” which appear only within the context of time.  Both “now” and “then” are concepts; now is not. Now alludes to objectless Reality.)

Is this not (‘the’) now that is never not here, that cannot be conceptualized, that we all live, all of the time, the only inescapable and effortless universal?  Am I understanding correctly?
 
Response: “Yes” to your first question.  It’s my basic response to your second question as well, except that I would make an effort to avoid the word “time” in this context.  Nor would I use the word “only,” since here is of the same nature as now.
