Time


Time and the Mind

When you are unhappy,the mind contracts, and time appears to be too long.

When you are happy, the mind expands, and time appears to be too short.

When the mind is in equanimity, it transcends time.

When the mind id dull or unconscious, it is unable to experience itself.

When you feel time is too short, you are either restless or in expanded awareness.

When you feel time is too long, you are miserable or keen minded.

When you are happy and love what are you doing, you simply don't feel the time.

Also, in sleep you don't feel the time.
 
In deep meditation, you have a feeling that you are time and everything is happening in you.

Events are happening in you like the clouds come and go and go in the sky.

When you are ahead of time, It is dragging and boring.

When time is ahead of you, then you are surprised and shocked. You cannot digest the events.
 
 
Time and Samadhi

When you are with time, you are wise and at peace.

When the time is good, a foe will behave like a friend.

When the time is not good, even a friend will behave like a foe.

An ignorant person disbelieves in time and the Divine beyond time.

The wise neither believe nor disbelieve the individual. His faith rests on kaala (time).

The wiser one believes in mahakaala (grand time or Shiva).

In the world and in time there is always room for improvement. You can improve your time and your nature.
 
Only the Being is perfect all the time. Take refuge in the Being and become incorrigible.
 
Just like the mind experiences time, this moment has a mind of its own, A Big Mind which has enormous and infinite organizing power.

Thought is nothing but a ripple in this moment,  and thus a few moments of Samadhi gives the mind a lot of energy.

Samadhi, no-mindedness or timelessness, is peace, the Real peace. This is the greatest healer.

Before you fall asleep or as soon as you wake up, in the moments of twilight of Consciousness, experience the timelessness.

Time is the greatest mystery. In its lap exists all other mysteries
