The Dance of Space and Time

by Administrator on February 6, 2012

Hayward asked that I post this…in living appreciation of Rinpoche.

Primordial Couple
Forever entwined

The dancing embrace
Of Space and Time


Through the eyes of Convention
The limits of known
Time and Space invisible background
Framing when and locating where

Space as container
Surrounding all things

Gracefully contours
To accommodate dimension

The length height and width of all things
Occupies focused attention

Confusing form and substance
Space appears solid

Vast openness is selectively ignored
As measurements’ meaning is routinely explored

Time is partitioned and sequenced quite clear
As past present and future appear

Here, there, after, before
Ordering, taming, dimming splendor


Through the eyes of Knowledge
Time and space visible appear

Let the background come forth
The dynamic revealed

Behold transcendent dimensions
Intrinsically within

Allowing all objects be Space
And movement be Time

Space surrounding, permeating and infusing
All form

Time nakedly exposed
As inherent movement of all change

Time and space in information
Informing all message

Time giving form to meaning
And Space meaning to place

Space allows by surrounding
And supports by infusing

And Time as weaver runs through
All that is woven

Subject and object mutually appear
Sharing moment

The intimacy of
Time’s space

Focal settings macro to micro all confirm
Time and Space is ever-present for the knowing

Time giving form to space
Present and entirely open

Appearance without substance
Sheer afterglow of loving embrace
…….

What Is/Am I?

January 28, 2012

There’s a nice little video on the web at http://www.microphilosophy.net/?p=210 that shows a number of well-known philosophers–Dan Dennett, Sue Blackmore, and others–giving a one-sentence answer to the question, “What are you?” Each of them, good natured, answers, “I am . . .” Most of them take the view that as individuals they are constructs created [...]

Focus on the knowledge aspect of the establishing activity of the senses

July 22, 2011

From my porch, I’m looking out over a field of very tall grass; windblown uncut that is roiling green. At the edge, the farmer cut a wide path. He will return and cut the rest at some point, but now the path lies flat and golden in the sun, like a beach at the [...]

reg. text page 223 … in moments of surprise or unusual intensity…

March 20, 2010

Moments of deep experience I new through the death of my friend Suneth. Suddenly the linear time stopped to be and I found myself in a space that was new and unexplored for me. There was no old pattern, that the Self could count on, no chances to look to experiences from the past, no hope for [...]
