Time

It is often mistaken that we have an idea about time. The time we normally declare to be understood is the period represented in the terms of orbital measure of sun and earth. This of course is of importance to day to day life but is it the beginning and end of it?

I suppose not. For the sun and the moon and the stars existed and become extinct in time so time was before the sun and the moon. There is also our inability to measure the cosmos or the whole universe with time and space. Where do time and space then exist? Are they mere imaginary products of our thought? If so where do we exist and our thoughts? Are we conveniently trying to put behind the facts that they are beyond imagination and hence do not have to waste "time" on it?

To me for the process of analysis into the facts of time, we need to start from a point of reference and then begin to verify or find out the true time and then check if the point of reference itself has any validity. I need to go for the wild goose chase of time to know that.

Come and join me for the wild goose chase of time in time…….
