In Eternity We Stand!

Yes, I think this will be fun and a great way for us to share with each other in between meetings.

I love both of your quotes, Sue. The one by Ken Wilber has so much more detail but Woody Allen gets directly to the point. These fits so well with our blog title.

I love collapsing the boundaries to this present moment. Here, in eternity, we stand! Of course, I have to keep reminding myself - I'm in eternity.

The quote in your email from the book, The Dancing Wu Li Masters, is the Math and Science behind all this. I'll repeat the quote. "Minkowski's mathematical explorations of space and time were both revolutionary and fascinating. Out of them came a simple diagram of space-time showing the mathematical relationship of the past, present, and the future. Of the wealth of information contained in this diagram, the most striking is that all of the past and all of the future, for each individual meet and forever meet, at one single point, now. Furthermore, the now of each individual is specifically located, and will never be found in any other place, than here (wherever the observer is at)." (p. 154) Wow!

See all of you Thursday at the reading group.

Have a great week!

Debbie
