Life has no meaning without the past and future; the present, without the past and the future, is the frozen moment. We all fight for the present, but if anything exists in time, that is the past and the future. Is it possible to measure the present? How long does it last? The present second is not the present: before we think about it, it becomes the future; when we think about it, it becomes the past, and the future becomes the past in the exact second. (This is a good argument about particles and waves since we cannot determine a particle’s exact position and momentum.) What time is there in the present? Only the Absolute is in the absolute present because the absolute present is timeless and spaceless. The present is eternity, and eternity is nothing.

Since both past and present are in the Primordial Being, he has already walked his way; he will not arrive at any other time or have more or less time. He will return to the same “place” simultaneously, beyond time. He swims outside time and seeks and offers the purpose through the artifice of time. No particle is aware of its most profound memory. However, every particle rushes through time in its unmistakable walk, and every mistake is part of this unmistakable walk, part of its perfection.

The whole past, the present, and the future are in the world as potential. Without space, there is no growth and time. Growth and development are possible only in the multitude, which implies distances and is not accidental. Even if the beginning was accidental, and it was not, growth and development are not. A compressed idea, the primordial Universal Mind, contains the Way and every dimension. Time is the measure of distance; time beats from its heart and records the motion of its bloodstream; time turns the pages of the Way and epitomizes the unmistakable memory of the Being-God. Time is the Being’s device with which it deceives the emptiness within itself. Time records and glorifies the glory of the Being-God.

Since the immaterial Being envelopes the Nothing, this nothing, in “cooperation” with the Universal Being (Mind), becomes space as we experience and describe it. The “fabric” of this created space, with the help of nothingness, is curved. But all this is the product of the transformation of the Being into its different forms, modes, and interdependent qualities of reality. The “material” world is only a symphony of “materialized” qualities of the Universal Being,” not matter per se because matter per se does not exist. What we see as space is a “materialized” program of the Universal Mind. What appears to us as dimensions is the underlying nothingness holding the illusion of Reality, making it appear material. The Primordial Primary Quality is the Primary Ultimate Force, or Source, that powers all we see, experience, and measure. Everything is related to Everything else and is affected and conditioned by Everything else. Everything within the Universe is a message, information, and code to everything else. Energy and matter are the messages of the Universal Mind sent into nothingness to fertilize it. Relationships and communication among the myriad beings are the life of one organism. All the features of matter we experience are real in the sense that we experience the spacetime continuum, but all that is the result of programming and conditioning rather than energy and matter as physical realities per se. Everything was One and became a multitude, yet Everything stayed One on the most basic level. The story of One is the story of All. Every sense, every pain, and everything we feel are the messages of existence, messages of the Universal Mind in action, interconnecting the Web of the Universe into One Family. Absolute is the Ultimate uniting force of Everything. To be one and only is death. That’s why creating is needed. Without creating, there is no life. The Universe is the life of the Absolute. Something and Nothing are the Father and the Mother of the World. From One Absolute, there is an almost endless family dispersed through space in search of life and meaning, which is what we call existence.

We may still insist that space, although mainly emptiness, is completely “contaminated” by all the forces in the Universe—particles, waves, and so on. Still, based on this deduction or inference, we cannot prove that what is curved is space since nothing remains nothing and cannot be transformed into something based on the laws of physics. If the Nothing does not convert into something, the curvature of space is impossible. To prove the curvature of nothing (space), we must prove that nothing can transform itself into something based on the laws of physics.Suppose we further insist that this is only a problem of linguistics and philosophy and not physics since we stated that space is how we define it and not as it is. This reasoning would be insufficient because we must first prove that actual space is what it is and not what we say it is to fit our arguments. There can be no answers to the most critical questions of contemporary science, physics, philosophy, and even religions if we are not as precise as possible, linguistically, experimentally, or in any other way. These questions appear to be self-evident, self-explanatory truths and axioms, yet they are neither self-evident nor clear and precise to reflect the actual underlying reality. If we are not as precise as possible, we create theories and paradigms presented as facts, although the starting premises are undefined and unanswered. However, if we do not answer the starting causes and premises, we cannot adequately describe the laws of nature, nor can we understand them.Regardless of how sure we are about space and the curvature of space, we still cannot claim we are correct without describing the nature of nothing. Without the Nothing, there can be no space. There will be an immediate argument, though, that the Nothing has no nature and, therefore, there is nothing to describe. The answer is that its passivity and lack of properties are its most potent “property” because they enable creation and existence. Without the Nothing or void, there is no creation and no existence.We converted nothing into something by our thoughts and language, using deduction or inference, and concluded that space is the consequence of this thought process, not the actual process. We applied our definite language to our indefinite “understanding,” ideas, or reasoning to prove the “fact.” However, the fact is or is not, regardless of our ideas, language, or reasoning.We must use the opposite and apply language to the facts rather than our understanding. Our understanding is limited, and facts are impersonal and independent of our knowledge. We cannot falsify the language to fit and understand the facts better. We cannot change facts or affect them with our ideas, but facts are verifiable up to a point. There are facts beyond the verifiable point by humans since human beings are limited. Still, language is verifiable, and our theories are both falsifiable and verifiable to a large extent.

We still can insist that space is what we say because nothing, or an absolute vacuum, is not space. Then, we must prove how space can exist without this nothing or absolute vacuum. But we cannot prove that space is possible without nothing. Since we cannot prove that there is space or curvature of space without nothing, we will establish the opposite: without the absolute vacuum, the Nothing (void, emptiness), there is no space. When we become convinced that there can be no space without the Nothing or an absolute vacuum, we must answer precisely what space is and how it becomes space. The only actual space is nothing or an absolute vacuum; we have already stated that this space cannot be curved.

We may argue that since nothing is just nothing, it cannot be space, and since it is not space, space is, in other words, what we see or think space is. However, what we see or think about space does not mean we have proved that what we see as space is real space. What is curved is only the Being, presented to us as something we call matter and energy, not space. Although Being envelopes space or is enveloped by space, it does not mean that space curves, only the Being. Since space is undetectable, passive, and nonexistent except concerning the Being, it does not contain any property or feature and, therefore, cannot be curved. There must be something to be curved.

We are still too far from the true definition of space and a true definition of fact. To prove that there is a curvature of space, we must undeniably prove and show that we know and understand what space is and that we know and understand what a fact is philosophically, linguistically, and physically. Consequently, we may say we have considered and know all this, but the “fact” remains the “fact.” It is not whether we say we understand all this and have considered all that but if we have genuinely and undeniably proved and understood what we declare.

The main question is if there can be any space without space, although this sounds absurd, for it is evident that there can be no space without space. However, if there can be no space without space, how can there be the curvature of space if there is no space? Then, we may answer that there is space and engage in circular reasoning. On a superficial level, some “obvious axioms” lead us to accept that there is space as it is without questioning how that is, how it is possible, and what creates this space. Then, we may answer that, based on laws of physics, nature works in such ways and that there are four main forces, and that based on all our knowledge and theories confirmed by experiments, we conclude and state, based on a “fact,” that there is a curvature of space.

What causes the illusion of the curvature of space is the limitation of language, thought, understanding, and the application of our limited language and beliefs to reality. We cannot change reality, but we can try to accommodate our thoughts and language in what appears to be a reality. Since the Nothing is “not” space, we are sure we can legitimately say that space can be curved. Nevertheless, we must first answer what space is. If we cannot precisely answer what space is, we cannot speculate that an absolute vacuum is not space. In other words, we cannot base our thoughts and language on consequences and conclusions rather than causes and premises.

A journey itself is beauty: space, journey, is the hope and joy of the world. Nothingness is the most important “dimension” of the Absolute or God; he doesn’t have dimensions without emptiness. Without Nothing, he is Nothing. Without the Nothing, there is no world and ultimately no space; if there is no space, there is nothing to be curved. However, if there is something, that something can exist as the world, only with the Nothing or in the Nothing or the Nothing can exist within it. Nothingness cannot be curved; only the Being can have curvature. The curvature of the Being is only its “physical” appearance and not the actual curvature of space, which is nothing and cannot be curved. As manifested in the world, the Being is many and One simultaneously. It is divided into a multitude yet stays One. There is only one Universe containing plurality—micro shapes, micro-universes, particles, waves, whatever we call all the elements of existence.

Every dimension looks at itself through the eyes of other shapes in the Universe. Only in the senses, and through the senses, the joy is born and felt. The Universe’s uppermost beauty, depth, knowledge, and potential shine on surfaces. The Universe puts on and changes many clothes, colors, shapes, and scents. Light is the robe of the Universe and is more important than its depth. Its whole nature shines from its face; its mystery seduces us with the smile of beauty; its depth is in the service of beauty. The most profound depth is sad and lonely at the bottom of itself and does not need knowledge, for it is in and of itself omnipotent knowledge and truth. That’s why the Being, in a creative dance with Emptiness, embraces her,To create a smile on her faceWhich becomes spaceGiving birth to distances among shapes.Without shapes, there are no distances or Paths,Without the Paths, there is no purposeFor the Ultimate Path is the purpose,The Path walks the Way to the Harbor.Space is the Ultimate Curved Path,On the Way from Oneness into PluralityAnd from Plurality back to Oneness.Plurality is the curved smile of OnenessIn myriad colors and shapesOn countless paths of the divided OneToward the Ultimate Home of the OneUndivided and uncurved Self.

Reaching the ultimate laws of physics requires distancing from the paradigms of science and the paradigm of how a human brain usually thinks or functions. To understand the ultimate laws of physics, the human mind must adjust to the requirements or logic of phenomena that seem paradoxical and absurd to us as humans.

Space, in its essence, does not exist and, therefore, cannot be curved. What exists is only an emanation of the Supreme Being transformed into reality. We measure the expression of the Absolute and not the absolute itself. We already elaborated on the manifestation of the Absolute as we see it. Therefore, the curvature of space is a curvature of the convention, as presented to our senses, the curvature of the emanation and manifestation of the Absolute Mind in the World.

Emptiness, an absolute vacuum, cannot be curved, yet only emptiness makes space. Only matter, our idea of matter, can be curved; its curving is not a condensation of energy but the dilution of the energy of compressed “knowledge,” “mind,” idea,” “thought,” or “spirit.” Only this condensed essence, “immaterial substance,” can be curved in its expansion or “extension.” Neither the “real space” (absolute vacuum) has an actual dimension, nor does the universal essence, the “ultimate substance,” have it. The “immaterial substance,” Universal Mind, is the only authentic energy of the Being, existing in its knowledge and “memory.

SPACE IN THE UNIVERSEEINSTEIN’S SPACEThe space we explored and elaborated on before is not the same as we experience in the existing Universe, as we “see” it. In the “space,” before the Universe, as we know it, there is no point of reference. A point of reference exists only if there is a relationship between something and something else, even if that relationship is only between two things, two entities.We will call the space we experience Einstein’s space. Einstein’s space is “impregnated,” programmed, or shall we dare to say, “contaminated” by the awakening, “explosion” of the Absolute. This explosion is the dispersion of Nothingness into the Being, not the “explosion” of the Being into Nothingness. The “space” created this way is not the clean “space” we described as an absolute vacuum, emptiness, or nothingness.If we talk about the Primordial Being and Nonbeing, we cannot talk about space from Einstein’s physics point of view. In the primordial “space,” the Being does not possess any material properties; the same applies to the Nonbeing or nothingness. In such a state, there is no space as we understand it. Every point is the same point. Every moment is the same moment. In such a state, the vastness of “space” and “time” are the same point and moment. This is the infinity of the finite, compressed infinity of the Absolute Being.The Infinity and Eternity outside the realm of the “material” Universe are the Infinity of Eternity and Eternity of Infinity enslaved beyond space and time. That which gives space and “time” to the World is beyond the spacetime continuum. The Universe is the manifestation of the Absolute Being. Absolute Being is spaceless and timeless. It is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. It encapsulates all the space and time, yet it is outside space and time. Absolute is spaceless space and timeless time. Absolute is Everything and nothing at the same time.

Absolute VoidAbsolute void is not and cannot be curved. Without a void, there is no space. Then, what curves if, without the void, there is no space? The curvature of space is the curvature of the immaterial Being that appeared in the void, or enveloped void, and started transforming into something we consider and perceive as physical reality, although it is not physical. Based on our idea of the primary, secondary, and tertiary qualities only as modes of one base quality, we are conditioned, based on our apparatus of perception, to experience and feel the physical world, including curvature of space, as if it were physical, although it is not. The result is the same as if it were physical. The world is the life of the Universal Mind in action.

If we imagine only our Universe as space in the ocean of nothingness, all the physical, natural forces will not affect the rest of nothingness at a far enough distance from our universe. All this nothingness would just be nothingness.If we now imagine one more universe, as ours is, there would be some impact of one on the other if they were close enough, and there would be a relationship between them so we could measure distance and have two points of reference.If we now make a giant leap of imagination, we can imagine a macro universe containing a similar number of universes as there are galaxies in ours; let’s say 100,000—1.000,000 or trillion universes, this universe would still have our universe and one million or a trillion more. This universe, at least one million times bigger than ours, would not affect the nothingness much more than a universe one million (or trillion) times smaller. The impact of this universe would be one million times larger and contaminate nothingness one million times more, but still, nothingness would be largely unaffected. The same would happen if we now imagine a universe a million times bigger than the previous one and if we continue to imagine a macro macro universe or a googolplex universe. Even a universe the size of 10googol of our own would not affect the rest of nothingness much more than ours affects it. Beyond the contamination of nothingness produced by a universe with the size of Googolplex larger than our own, the rest of nothingness would stay the same and unaffected.If all existences or universes were created again and again, along with the new ones, the rest of nothingness would still be equally unaffected and capable of accepting or inhabiting the new ones.Even if we imagine the googolplex googolplex googolplex size of anything, nothingness would still be able to accept or inhabit Everything. There is no number large enough to reach the end of nothingness. Infinity is simply endless.All these universes or an Omniverse would be space in the sense we understand it. But space would not be possible without nothingness. Regardless of the curvature of space (and time) or any imaginable physical law, the underlying reality of space would still be nothingness. Space, as we understand it, would not be possible without it.

Eternity means Now. Everything contained in one pointless point is an eternal Now. Now, it is Nothing.Infinity means Nowhere. Everything contained in one spotless “spot” is Infinity. Infinity is Nothing.

The Absolute is a finite Being containing infinity as a potential. Without nothingness, there is no infinity. Nothingness is nonexistent and, therefore, the most finite thing. Without nothingness, there is no space. Without space, there is no time.

Every particle is born with the help of emptiness; every form of life and Everything from it is life; there is no life beyond it. Its vibrations make multitudes; there is no organic or nonorganic matter. These are our interpretations and linguistic definitions. Everything that is—it is life; Everything beyond it is nothing. The World is the imagined Perpetuum mobile, making Everything from “nothing” by “nothing.Nothing is its food,Entire knowledge is its energy, Entire conscience and history;Its energy saw Everything,Past and future;Although a multitude, it does not go anywhere;There is nothing beyond it.The way implies the other pointAnd there is no other value or another point beyond it; It, itself, is the Way,Starting point and destination, Target to it.While flying into itself, it gives birth to new elements;The endless conversation begins,Whispering of stars;Distances give birth to the conversation,Distances give birth to the giggles of light,The entire emptiness becomes aliveAnd starts to resemble space.

Atoms (electrons, neutrons, quarks, strings), all we can imagine, are only messages and sparks of condensed knowledge and reminiscence. Emptiness gives the power to “matter,” enabling it to transform and grow. The very fire of hydrogen is knowledge. The Universe is the purest in the moment of space-birth; its primordial fire glows from the first “element.” “Fire” cannot evolve into something different from its existing knowledge. Every new element is the evolution of an idea; every new element is born from condensed knowledge, from the only and the same One.

As we see it, space is possible only when the primordial Being swallows emptiness. Space is born when the Being accepts emptiness, the Nonbeing, into itself. Thus, this condensed Being begins to dilute and spread out; emptiness starts making relations within it. Its life is impossible without emptiness: vacuum gives dimension to the Being, although without any dimension. Emptiness provides volume to the Being.

In a singularity, there is no space and time; time is a consequence of space. Space and time are only possible in plurality. The irruption of singularity into plurality is the cause of space and time as we perceive it.

After the voyage, every form comes to the same place despite being dispersed in myriad directions in conditional “separation” and dissolution. When forms completely dissolve, the emptiness separating forms or shapes becomes a primordial desert of nothingness without the shapes. This nothingness is the same everywhere; every “place or point” becomes the same “place,” a pointless point; the distance disappears. Since there is no time without space, the same applies to time. Real space is nothingness or an absolute vacuum; it is non-dimensional.

Although primordial emptiness is nothing, there is no space without emptiness: emptiness has no dimension. Only the compressed idea, compressed knowledge of the Being, hides “dimensions” within itself, but in its compressed mode It is beyond dimensions, It is beyond space, It is beyond time, It is the whole of compressed space and time.

If the Being, Universe, appears in the Nothing, or the Nothing appears in the Being, a point in space is created, and consequently, time. What makes the Nothing a real nothing is the lack of something, the lack of the Being. If the Being appears, nothing is not nothing anymore, for it becomes space.

Victory over the infinite space of zero is the birth of space.

Tunnel from the absolute realm into the relative realm of the world and vice versa. Without one, there is no other. This point could also be the nucleus of a black hole at the point of its absolute density where everything sank into One without any space. That is the Zero point. This point is the gateway to new life. At this point, a black hole either “explodes” or disappears.

Another force, which is not a force at all but is equally important, is the force of the Nonbeing, the force of the Nothing, the force of Emptiness, or the absolute vacuum. Without this “force,” space and time would not be possible. We must also state that time is impossible without space. In this sense, we treat time as a feature or property of space.

Even if we naively try to explain the immeasurable spaces, energies, and galaxies of the Universe with the so-called dark matter and dark energy, it is hard to comprehend, regardless of all possible physical laws and laws of compression or contraction that such waste energies can fit into a tiny “spot.” If energy is indestructible, this beginning will prove the opposite based on its smallness. If something can disappear into nothing, it must be “destructible,” regardless of our conceptions.

When the small is so small that it almost touches the farthest possible end of “infinity,” it becomes uncatchable. It is the point that we freely choose to call the “point” of “absolute speed” when the smallest, or near the smallest, when looked at, appears to be a particle and, when not looked at, seems to be a wave. The smallest must be the trembling of “matter” near the point of zero. It has nowhere to go except into the bigger. The life of the small is the life of the big.

Then, we must be sure we understand what creation and recreation are. According to atheists, the world is accidental. But is that possible? I firmly believe that science can prove and will prove that matter can’t come into existence just of itself or be always there just like that. It is almost inconceivable that matter, if it did not possess any information enabling it to function, would be able to evolve, in some instances, to the point of awareness of itself and the world around. It is almost impossible that matter, or energy, as such, originated just of themselves or always existed.

Can we go beyond the existing Universe to establish some scientific truths? However abstract this may sound, we may question relations and influences. For example, if there were other universes anywhere before the Big Bang of our Universe, how could that have affected our Universe, and would these effects be measurable or if there were any? Many other questions relating to impact and influence may indirectly lead to latent potential answers.

Our idea of the birth of the Universe through the Big Bang is only our limited idea about the Universe and not a real explanation of the Universe itself as it may be and not as we think it is. Therefore, we would have to define, in the first place, what a real Universe is. We have to determine whether we can always use our ideas about the Universe as a basis for understanding the Universe. But, if we are not sure we understand, or know with certainty, or at least to a high degree, what a real Universe is, in its totality, known and unknown to us, then we must think about it more hypothetically.

The real void is the medium for the Being to “create space” or the appearance of space with the help of the real void. Without the real void, there would be no volume; without volume, there would be no space. Although passively, the Real Void “participates” equally with the Being in creating the Universe. The passivity and nothingness of the void are its biggest “asset” and “force.

In the way we understand space, there is no real void, but in the way I described the void in the previous sections of this book, the real void is always present. What we see and experience as space is an illusion. It is impossible to transform a void into energy or matter and curve it. The real void is uncurvable. What is curved is the “immaterial” Universe in the form we experience as space, energy, and matter based on the realities predicated by the Ultimate Primary Quality of Reality and based on secondary and tertiary qualities we have already described.

Nothing can be in the Nothing. Nothing can be only in the Something. Without the Nothing in the Being, there can be no Being, the Universe, in the sense we experience the World, and there can be no space. Whole Space is Nothingness contaminated by the “illusion” of the Being transformed into Something we call Universe.

Back and forward or in any direction, we can measure no space except nothingness. Within the coordinates of the Being, we measure the “space,” but that which we call space is only the appearance of the immaterial Being presented to us, or sensed by us, as material. Yet, the only “volume” of this “space” is Nothingness.

The World is the Way because there is nothing outside, and through nothing, there is no way: The World travels through itself and within itself. Time is the measure of its Way, and since the world is the Way, the Way travels, not the world. The Way is the only measure, the only time and space. World-God is the Way.

Only the possibility of a journey creates space because space, before and after, becomes (is) the same; only the Way on a journey creates time, and the idea of the goal gives birth to time. Time does not measure time but the length of a passed road. The journey is space since nothing journeys (travels) from one to another or apart from one another. Nothing is ever separated; rather, all travel with all; all looks for itself within and in the other, and every path is the idea of the Being that finds itself on its journey because it is the Way.

God is Sisyphus, and existence (life) is the stone. The accomplishment of purpose is the saddest point. Sisyphus is happiest without the total accomplishment of the purpose, while he persistently works and aims at the top. The accomplishment of the purpose is Sisyphus’ fall, so he forgets his achievement quickly. Voyage contains his whole hope and beauty; the voyage is the purpose of the stone—purpose to itself alone. He always arrives in the same place but chooses voyage instead of the target. The purpose and target were always there. Voyage is always new because it is fed from oblivion by unaware memory, with infinite possibilities stemming from the nature of the absolute through “free” will and unincidental accidents or errors. Voyage is the ultimate goal or purpose because it hides an infinite multitude within itself; the infinity of the finite through endless possibilities. The beauty of infinity is always new; the voyage is the sum of happenings on the scale. Every experience or adventure is new. Beauty shines from experience.

There is no time and space. Motion is a Sisyphus’ stone, and space is emptiness, which is nothing. Zero enslaves the space within itself, leaving emptiness without space out of itself. Zero frees the space from the condensed idea, offering the emptiness to spread within the compressed mind. The enslavement of emptiness is the birth of space. Freedom of emptiness is her slavery. Emptiness becomes the slave and the master; obeying God, the vacuum gives him birth, in a way, by providing space for plurality, but simultaneously enlivens itself.

Zero enslaves space and time when a compressed idea, the Universal Mind, explodes into itself through emptiness; when a compressed idea, the mind converts and irrupts into countless ideas (messages). Creation of space is the classification and ordering of ideas (information), not division or motion but development, birth, and happening, the life of an idea, and development of the musical scale. Space is the trembling of emptiness: the life of a mind that listens to itself.

Zero is the enslaved time, enslaved past, and future in the present of Zero. Zero is the end of recording: the time that contains all time and an absolute multitude within itself. Time, an eternity, is smaller than a moment, than a second, than a fraction of a second; it is not measurable. Time does not exist. Eternity does not have measure; its only measure is Zero, into which it goes to sleep. That is why an instant is longer than an eternity: an instant has a duration.

Real endlessness, absolute multitude, and variance imply an accident or the impossibility of an accident, which boils down to the same. Absolute multitude and endlessness can exist only in emptiness. The Home of endlessness and the multitude is Zero. We have to reach the bottom of a second, the bottom of time, to pass through the whole multitude and “infinity” to catch the present. Nevertheless, it is impossible to catch the present because it is Zero. Over time, the future becomes the past at the edge of Zero. The present is the annihilation of life; the present does not exist, but Everything is the presence of an organism that remembers and breathes according to its program—the present is the eternity it tries to avoid. All the rest implies some motion or illusion; it resembles eternity because it has eternal life.

Even endless knowledge of the Universal Mind cannot sustain infinity as actuality. The Universal Mind cannot transform into an absolute plurality of infinity. Its purpose is to transform from one into many and to exist meaningfully. The meaning and the purpose of the Universal Mind are saved based on this limit imposed by something without any limit, the infinity.

If we divide the second, every fraction becomes the past faster than the speed of thought and every fraction of every fraction. We would need to step down to the Zero Point of time to measure the present; we would need to divide the smallest number by the infinite number of numbers and look for the past in the infinity of the second. The whole matter is smaller than the numberless “number” of infinity. Infinity is endless.

There can be no time before the Big Bang, but time and space are logical consequences of our Universe appearing after the Big Bang (or a different event) or any other universe.

Everything or anything before the Big Bang does not obey the laws of physics and is not necessarily compatible with our understanding and views of the world. We do not mean that there is nothing before the Big Bang, but that we can hardly understand what is hidden before it (we can only use our abstract thoughts to imagine it). As we explained in other parts of this book, we cannot look at time in the same way from the perspective of the “physical” world as from the perspective of an immaterial world. Neither space nor time exists in the nonmaterial world. Space and time are categories we deal with only in the “physical” world.
