Eleventh Hour Therapy 11/11/11
It all began when the Little Boy, who had never spoken before, used his first words to ask a question. He wanted to know, “what is now?”
No one knew where he came from or who his parents were. He just appeared one day in an isolated little town in Nevada and people took him in.
Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say, he took them in.
The idea of immediacy is something that science can not grasp because now has no measure.
It was only a few days after the little boy had spoken that some scientists said they had measure the speed of an energy particle going faster than the speed of light.
This caused a hubbub. It was simply a stated fact that the speed of light was the universal speed limit of everything there is.
However, as the little boy noted, but said nothing of it at the time, there was obviously something eminently faster than the speed of light.
There is now.
A great physicist, perhaps the world greatest genius, died with a pencil in his hand. Albert Einstein spent his last moments of consciousness frantically trying to figure out this little discrepancy.
“There is no calculation for now,” said one of the kids in the little boy’s arithmetic class, holding up a little finger, “unless you want to say it’s one.”
He was right, and another little child, a little girl, said so, admiringly.
“How big is the universe?” she asked.
No one had asked that question before either, and they all wanted to be the first to find out. All the children ran fo their books, and when they couldn’t find the anwer, they went online with their little computers and asked the question, and got an answer.
“It says here the observable Universe is 96 billion light years wide. A light year is the distance it take light to travel in one year.”
“Ninety six billion!” said another. “That must be really big.”
But that seemed odd. When they measured the distance from one point to another with a ruler they could see it in an instant. Time had nothing to do with it. You could see immediately it was 12 inches or 12 billion miles, meters or feet.
“How old is it?” asked the little boy.
One kid already had the answer. “Thirteen point seventy five illionyears old, he said authoritatively.
“But wait,” said another. “That’s doesn’t sound right. How could it be bigger than it is old? If the Universe began at one point, the Big Bang, an explosion, then going at the speed of light, it would take half the radius in light years to get where it is today.”
“And 96 billion is just what we can see.”
“Half of 96 billion is 48 billion. So if the univere began here, it woul take at least 48 billion light years to get where it is today,” said another.
“Unless,” said another, “it was already 82 billion light years in diameter when it began.”
The children all thought about this quietly for a while an nodded. There were other ways to explain it. maybe someody figured wrong.
“Or maybe,” said the Little Boy, ‘there is something faster than the speed of light. Maybe there is the speed of now.”
Looking down on a map, we see it all at once.
God, looking down at the Universe, through our eyes, in many different ways, sees it all at once, too. He sees it now.
The speed of light is no limitation to Him.
Neither should it be for us.
[...] The first entry is entitled “The Speed of Now.” [...]
Light has no speed, because it is everywhere at the same time – now.
The particle physicists are all in entanglement.
Symbiosis is the reality.
Everything starts as a little bubble and expands and contracts, because time is not linear, but cyclic.
There is no beginning and there is no end.
It is all a cyclic symbiosis in the now, going nowhere at zero speed.
