How long a minute is depends on which side of the bathroom door you are on.
Thanks, GOPJ. Fascinating. Deserves its own thread.
Bump for later reading
“Rubber Band, a-Rubber Band Man...Guaranteed to blow your mind!”
If you live far from the city, in a place where only the sights and sounds of nature form the passage of time, you become human again. The pretensions of modernity fall from your skin, your mind is at peace.
The dirt over which which you so laboriously toil to provide most all your food, is both the giver of live and your last bed of repose.
The transition is transparent. With each step you see your life and feel your death as molecules everywhere fall to the soil.
Time is not just a function of the speed of light. It is a function of the frequency of consciousness divided by the speed of light.
As we cleanse our souls, the frequency of consciousness increases and time collapses.
This is why in God’s perfect Love, in Heaven, a day is as a thousand on earth.

It can hardly be pure coincidence that, before gaining a university position, the young Einstein worked in the Swiss Patent Office, dealing specifically with patents relating to the synchronisation of clocks at railway stations. It was probably there that it dawned on him: the problem of synchronising clocks was, ultimately, an insoluble one.A more in depth article on the same subject:In other words, only a few years passed between the moment at which we agreed to synchronise clocks and the moment at which Einstein realised that it was impossible to do so exactly.
Einstein was remarkably in the right place at the right time with the right idea. All of his miracle papers of 1905 treated particles as if they were real, something almost forbidden by the physics community at the time. Einstein's position as an outsider really helped.
Is time really slower the closer you get to the core of the earth, or is it simply that mechanical instruments are affected more by the forces of gravitational pull on objects closer to the the core of the earth? I think time is constant, and it’s just devices run at different speeds as they move further from the core of the earth and the effects of gravitational pull upon objects.
Time is applying numbers to the reality of motion of objects. Go see St Thomas of Aquinas to see how he explains it.
Regardless of where you are in the universe, the time is always now.
Maybe for him.
“In other words, only a few years passed between the moment at which we agreed to synchronise clocks and the moment at which Einstein realised that it was impossible to do so exactly.”.........................It’s only a matter of time...................or is it a time of matter?.....................
Posting this on 4/20 is no coincidence, right?
Time isn’t holding us/Time isn’t after us
The sun seems to revolve in the sky
It is not just the clocks that slow down: lower down, all processes are slower"
Yep! Just another reason why it's best with the woman on top...
