Perception Of Time Quotes

“Time is basically an illusion created by the mind to aid in our sense of temporal presence in the vast ocean of space. Without the neurons to create a virtual perception of the past and the future based on all our experiences, there is no actual existence of the past and the future. All that there is, is the present.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Love, God & Neurons: Memoir of a scientist who found himself by getting lost

“Everything in your mental life proceeds in proper neurological order.

Time was irrelevant to our existence, for we didn’t want to exist outside the tight and glorious knots of each other’s arms. Time is basically an illusion created by the mind to aid in our sense of temporal presence in the vast ocean of space. Without the neurons to create a virtual perception of the past and the future based on all our experiences, there is no actual existence of the past and the future. All that there is, is the present.”

“Time is Illusion (The Sonnet)

Time is a necessary illusion,
forged from the fabric of memory,
meant for adding coherence to life,
so that you're mindful of your duty.

Body cannot survive in the vacuum of space,
Mind cannot survive in the vacuum of time.
Brain cannot survive in the vacuum of skull,
So it floats about in the fluid of spine.

Memory makes the past, memory makes future,
Memory is the bedrock of the time psyche.
Physical time is irrelevant to the mind,
Mind creates its own domain of temporality.

Time is a myth, that aids us survive.
Master the myth, o divine maker -
Time and tide are born inside!”
― Abhijit Naskar, Tum Dunya Tek Millet: Greatest Country on Earth is Earth
