Contingent this passing beat
Is to One that went past
Conditioned the Present is
In a Timescape that’s Vast
Expectant this Moment is
Amid a Boundless Swirl
Mysterious, the Chosen is
And the future it unfurls
A touch of Calm Stillness
Tumults of Arriving Two
Flashes Bygone, are Wisps
We owe our Gratitude to
“The objective world simply is, it does not happen. Only to the gaze of my consciousness, crawling upward along the life line of my body, does a section of this world come to life as a fleeting image in space which continuously changes in time.” — Hermann Weyl
Timescape holds all Events. They exist wholly within but are inextricably linked. They appear to us to unfold in its pristine vastness. The conditions sculpting Timescape are as arbitrary as the Events it contains. Random Events conspired for Sentience to emerge. An illuminated vein of Timescape comprehends its very existence!
Events of Past are Memories. Ruminating and Planning are Thoughts. Preoccupation with them masquerades the Now. The Now is all that’s afforded, illuminated by consciousness. Gratitude is a nod to its contingency, its precariousness. Clear Mindfulness is neither grasping nor pushing away, abiding in the Now. The clouds of Delusion depart revealing the naked clarity. Delusion is the root cause of all suffering.
