Is There Something As Present?

Is There Something As Present?

The neural impulses from your taste buds and your ears get transmitted to your brain, which process them and dump them into working memory-so by the time you know you are experiencing something, it's already in the past. Already a memory.

Everything we experience us this careful, tape-delayed reconstruction.

Is Time An Illusion?

More like our perception of it is so flawed that it may as well be an illusion. Every moment is equally real and happen ing now, but the nature of our consciousness only gives us access to one slice at a time. Think of our life like a book. Each page a distinct moment. But in the same way we read a book, we can only perceive one moment, one page, at a time. Our flawed perception shuts off access to all the others.

When a person dies, he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past... All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist. It is just on illusion we have here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever.
