Science seeks admirably to establish truth (as far it may measure and quantify it) in reality of how the universe actually works, but this is an exercise confined to the spacetime, 4D realm and thus incapable of touching that which lies beyond this 4D realm, as in the dimension of soul and spirit, the neshama of our human reality.

Beautifully said, MHGinTN!

We can only directly observe phenomena that are taking place in time: Cause-and-effect ineluctibly involves a temporal process. The interesting thing is that once an observation has been made, it instantly becomes a part of "the past."

As you insightfully point out, humans live "in the dimension of soul and spirit, the neshama of our human reality" -- which do not belong to time proper, as conventionally understood. Science can't "go there"; but that doesn't mean that human participation in timelessness is an "illusion."

Thank you so very much for this beautiful essay/post!

True... timing is far more importasnt than time.. All past and future moments are composed of the present moment..
