►It is not easy to be conscious of the present moment expanding into eternity. The modern world in which we live is so caught up in linear time, in past and present, and in space, in here and there, and in the dust and ashes that fill space, yet both time and space are delusions of the fallen human intellect, the intellect which has fallen from contemplation of the absolute categories of being, of infinity and eternity, into the relative categories of existence, of past and of future, of here and of there, yet we are here now, in the present, eternal, moment. It is not easy to be conscious.
