Timelessness

What is time. Since childhood we are told that time will pass on, time will move on. But what is time. Is time real or time is just a concept exploited so much. Time is a concept. Time is one dimension like length, weight etc. Why are we getting carried away with time. The reality is present moment. When it was past, it was at that moment present. And when it will be future, at that moment it will be present only. So there is no other thing other than present. When we live in past, we remember some incident of past, we are doing that in present only. Similar is the case with the future.

Time is just a dimension of measurement. Nothing more than that. The concept of flow of time is created in mind by the conditioning of mind. Time is a reflection of change. If something is changing, the concept of time came to measure and observe the change.

If the reality is present, why are we so worried. The difficulty is to be at present in thoughts. To be present is to be in now and in the situation of thoughtlessness or in control of your thoughts or at least aware of your thoughts. If you are aware of your thoughts, you are at present. That is you are observer.
