I am very interested on the topic but know very little in comparison to the people I've seen posting. I was hoping for some help on the topic, including some good sources as well as some of your opinions and/or input.

Any help is greatly appreciated!! (Topic "Time is not real")

Thanks a lot,

interesting point, though i would say its not put into order as cause and effect that is a separate part of consciousness used in evaluation and abstraction.

That is quite an interesting set of concepts you put forth though. Basically it comes down to a question of what is our experience of reality, where do you draw the line?

The idea of cause and effect is often evaluated as an abstract. However as a universal law, it is perfectly mechanical. Take consciousness into activity and the result is manifest reality, at all levels of perception and dimensional possibilities. It is the reason the Universe exists and can be experienced. Awareness can be isolated into one idea and experience or in a thousand places at the same time without overwhelming consciousness.

I personally see no line as necessary to the isolation of any experience or thought. Life is perpetual and without end. Only the ego draws a line at the end of a particular storyline or death. Consciousness does not die or end when the personal story transitions into something different any more than a man dies when his eyes close at night to enter a different dream than the one he dreams during the day.

If you don't draw any lines what will your experience of reality be? Obviously we all share a perception that reality exists but no two people see the world or feel it exactly the same way. This would lead us to the awareness that the world is not a something that can only be seen and experienced one way, but rather it is something that we decide is real or not real, and our beliefs are altering our experiences as they change.
