Heart Space Time: Shiva Sutra 3.41 Part 2
Einstein’s theory of relativity showed us that the sheer mass of a black hole bends space time so dramatically, that if you were to sit and meditate on the edge of one for a year, you would have missed the entire dawn of mankind since the neanderthal, 255,000 years would have passed on earth in that year next to a black hole. That’s alot of mass! Well, what would happen if you meditated next to Brahma, the God of Creation in the Hindu tradition, for that same amount of time? According to the yogic tradition, a lot more than mankind would have passed by on earth while you sat there— all of earth would have come and gone, and the universe as we know it, 23 times over! 311 trillion years would have passed while you meditated next to Brahma for a year.
So what’s the point of all this mind-bending science? To show you how truly massive time is, and that if you want to really discover something eternal you can’t approach it horizontally. According to this Sutra, we can escape the inescapable density of time, which is at least 1.2 billion times the size of a black hole by the way, though the present! The present is an escape hatch from time, the most massive mass of them all, the truly infinite. When we are present, we don’t just escape time, we discover eternity, we rise up out of our limitations. So consider taking some time now to join us as attempt to jail break time through the key hole of the present.
