Because there is a timeline, a storyline.
That's the line quality.
It's moving forward.
And then there's the wheel.
And the wheel is like the substrate of God, Abraxas, you know, source itself.
And that substrate is timeless.
And the now is the sequencing, as you're saying, of all of these timeless moments into a storyline and a timeline, and both are true, which is a paradox.
And I think these thought experiments are really valuable.
I'll tell you the one that got me.
Here's the one that got me.
You have an arrow flying towards a target.
i love archery i have a traditional recurve bow i shoot it all the time it's a great practice for me and so the thought experiment was given okay so if you divide the amount of time you know half the distance to the target and then you divide that amount of time half the distance from there to the target and then half the distance from there to the target how much time is that and then half the distance from there there's always half the distance and there's always half the time
So if there's always a little bit of time left in the half, then the arrow never hits the target.
And I was like, oh man, how do I work myself through that?
And I think it ultimately leads you to this understanding of actually infinity.
And Rebbe Gaffney, he says, infinity is not a whole bunch of time.
It's not like, that's what we think.
It's like, oh yeah, infinity.
It's like a ton of time.
No, no, no.
