Arvin Ash – Time is an Ilusion

Summary:
Could all of time be here at once and we are just observing life like watching a movie go by. The beginning, middle, and the end are all here at once, but just like reading a book, we are forced to observe it one moment at a time.But why is there struggle when everything is preordained? And yet without the struggle there can be no consciousness. Creatures became aware of reality in order to be able to survive in it, and so evolution took place and higher consciousness came about.Carl Jung's myth was what struggle brought consciousnes to the universe, and that the Almighy was becoming conscious because of the struggle of living creatures. For Carl Jung, a myth was man's way of understanding the mysteries of the cosmos, which might not mean it is factually true, but is still spiritually

Could all of time be here at once and we are just observing life like watching a movie go by. The beginning, middle, and the end are all here at once, but just like reading a book, we are forced to observe it one moment at a time.

But why is there struggle when everything is preordained? And yet without the struggle there can be no consciousness. Creatures became aware of reality in order to be able to survive in it, and so evolution took place and higher consciousness came about.

Carl Jung's myth was what struggle brought consciousnes to the universe, and that the Almighy was becoming conscious because of the struggle of living creatures. For Carl Jung, a myth was man's way of understanding the mysteries of the cosmos, which might not mean it is factually true, but is still spiritually true. That there is a reason for mankind and a reason for why the universe is the way it is - with all its opposities that produces consciousness - light and dark, happiness and sadness, hot and cold, etc.

Because of the pain of loneliness we can appreciate the joy of frienship and closeness. So, the price paid for consciousness is suffering. Not a cheery thought.
