Time Sutra - Solving Time's Mystery (Paperback)

The nature of time has stood as a great enigma that has puzzled philosophers and physicists since antiquity. Time Sutra explains not only the nature of time, but also the intimate relationship between time and memory. Time is not what we think it is. Our understanding of time is founded on a basic misconception about the nature of our memory. In a clear and methodical way Time Sutra lays out a path of reason-a logical and empirical argument that reacquaints us with something we have long forgotten. Time Sutra is a thread of reason reconnecting us with our original memory. Despite the immense amount of scientific and philosophical literature on the subject of time, something important has been left unsaid. In modern physics there is a surprising lack of evidence for time. The description of reality that physics provides is essentially timeless. Likewise, psychology convincingly demonstrates that our 'sense' of time is not innate, it is learned through culture. And beginning with the earliest philosophers, the idea of time was frequently thought to be an illusion. Nowhere in science or philosophy is there a clear unequivocal statement describing the nature of time. Nevertheless, we think in such a way that we are convinced our life is an experience that takes place in time. But, time-consciousness has never been adequately explained. Written in an accessible, non-technical style, Time Sutra lays out a theory of time that not only solves the enigma of time but also resolves some of the most intractable problems of philosophy. This is a radically different worldview from the way in which we commonly frame our reality-Time Sutra reveals the view that remains after the frame is eliminated.
