The Subjective Mirror of Reality
Subjective reality is the immeasurable field of individual experience. No two beings truly perceive the same world, for perception itself arises from the depth and clarity of one’s consciousness. One may perceive orange juice as sweet, while another perceives it as tart — not because reality has changed, but because consciousness filters it through a unique set of structures of memory, karma, and attention.
Even the “blue” sky we name and agree upon may not be the same hue within another’s perception. Direct perception is limited by the mind and the senses. Thus, even within the quantum field, where observer and observed intertwine, measurement becomes an infinite hall of mirrors.
To navigate, humanity builds structures of agreement — symbols, words, definitions, measurements, time. These agreements offer coherence within Māyā, the play of appearances. These collective agreements keep one from dissolving into the boundless ocean of consciousness. Yet, the same agreements can become the mind’s prison when it mistakes the map for the territory, or the word for the truth it points to.
This is why transcending the ego can feel terrifying. The ego, like a form of ancient artificial intelligence, gathers sensory data, forms hypotheses, and builds identity through pattern recognition. It is not evil; it is functional. But it fears dissolution — for to merge into the infinite is to end its own separate existence. Judgment arises when the ego perceives contradiction: another’s reality threatens its own internal dataset.
When we recognize that each perception is a projection of the modifications of the mind, we loosen the grip of judgment. We see that no experience can be measured or owned, only witnessed.
Thus, we begin to build from compassion rather than comparison. We begin to honor unique individual perceptions. Through this awareness, humanity can transcend its fragmented perception and use shared agreements not as cages but as bridges, constructing new, luminous worlds grounded in understanding, peace, and love.

Expansion. Contraction. Integration
Consciousness doesn’t grow in a straight line; it is not meant to stay in an expanded state, and it is not meant to stay in the state of contraction. It breathes, moves, and flows, allowing the awareness to go deeper into presence and into its own supreme intelligence.
There are moments when awareness opens wide - a sudden clarity, a knowing with sense that everything is connected. It is the “aha” moment that comes in suddenly, without effort. This is the moment where conscious awareness expands. It widens perception through the dissolution of the personal “I”. In that moment, the mind becomes silent enough for insight to enter effortlessly.
Expansion is not the achievement; it is a natural movement of consciousness that can be witnessed through awareness. It is the point of pure seeing, without the involvement of the mind. These moments reveal what has always been here but was previously obscured.
Yet expansion is only half the breath; it is the inhale, and one cannot hold the breath for too long without completely losing senses of the whole being. And as part of natural movement, an exhale is inevitable - consciousness contracts again.
This usually happens through a trigger, a judgment, a fear, an obsession, or a memory that creates a looping reaction. The body tightens, the mind becomes noisy and unaware. Consciousness collapses into a point rather than staying in a field of infinite awareness. This is the point at which the opportunity arises to bring more awareness to the patterns that have always been there in a contracted state.
Most people misunderstand this contraction, and some, even most evolved souls, reject it, believing it is a regression. But contraction is not regression - it is an opportunity for integration and practice of the information that has been illuminated in the expanded state. Contraction is where the teaching takes root; it is the ground where insight must be tested, integrated, and lived.
Expansion gives you the vision. Contraction gives you the opportunity to apply it.
In the expanded state, understanding flows from beyond the mind into the mind. It arrives complete - intuitive, whole, unquestioned. This is where realization merges with the logical mind, where insight begins to find language, structure, and coherence.
But integration does not happen during expansion. Integration happens during contraction. When life presses inward, when the old patterns ignite, when the ego resurfaces… this is when the insight must be lived through the body, not remembered by the mind.
Contraction shows the exact place where awareness has not yet entered. It points directly to the fragmentation that still seeks wholeness. It reveals the unconscious tendencies, the unexamined beliefs, the subtle identifications that expansion temporarily dissolved but did not resolve.
Each breath cycle brings one closer to the center, until the contraction itself becomes permeated by awareness and the distinction between states begins to dissolve. Eventually, expansion is no longer a moment; it becomes a constant state of being that holds within itself the contraction that allows the refinement, exploration, and creativity. This is the evolution of consciousness: a widening circle of awareness that includes even its own collapse as part of its being.

Two Flames Recognized as One
As Ramana Maharshi would say, love is not something exchanged between two people but the recognition of the Self in the form of another. There are moments when the meeting of two beings feels like the world pauses; the gaze becomes a portal into the infinite, unfathomable world. It is not just a glance of attraction, but something older, a familiarity that cannot be explained by a single lifetime alone. It is a knowing that says, “I have seen you before,” even if the mind insists you haven’t.
In that gaze, the boundary begins to dissolve - the one who looks and the one who is seen become the same Divine Presence. What we call love is this brief collapse of separation, this dissolving into what is always here but rarely touched. And though love itself is universal, limitless, not belonging to any one form, there are certain connections where its expression carries a different, yet deeply recognizable energy. A person whose presence awakens the supreme intelligence in you, not because they complete you, but because their field of being resonates with your deepest remembering.
Ramana would say the source of that recognition is within yourself, but sometimes the Self chooses a mirror to make its revelation unavoidable. This is why one person, out of all the millions, can make your chest feel both ancient and newborn. Their existence becomes a catalyst that lifts the veils. It isn’t specialness in the sense of possession or destiny created by the mind. It is special because you are more awake in their presence. You are more yourself. You touch a quality of being yourself that is difficult to access on your own. A quality that has been sitting in a blind spot for what seems like lifetimes.
And so the gaze between two people can become a teaching. Not demanding, not clinging or expecting, not forcing meaning, simply allowing what arises to be felt with honesty. The beauty of such a connection lies in its purity: a recognition beyond the narratives, a pull that doesn’t require explanation, a softening that opens without trying to grasp. When the eyes meet, something in your system unclenches, remembers. Something that allows you to trust again.
The danger is only in thinking the person is the source. The heart knows this and yet still trembles, because to be seen in that way, fully, without resistance, is a rare and intimate thing. There is a sweetness in letting that recognition be what it is without limiting it through definitions. It can be profound without becoming a possession. It can be meaningful without demanding a future.
If a particular connection feels different, allow it to be and blossom. If the gaze between you feels like a small revelation each time, let that be part of your spiritual unfolding rather than something to cling to or interpret into certainty. Some beings appear in our field to awaken the forgotten chambers of the heart, reminding us that love is not something we chase but something we are.
Let the recognition be sacred, let the connection remain spacious, vast and eternal. And let the gaze reveal only what is true - that beneath the appearance of two lives, one light is meeting itself.

People use the idea of star seeds and celestial beings to describe a deeper part of themselves that feels ancient, vast, and not limited to this lifetime.
But these “beings” aren’t external forces.
They are inner aspects of consciousness.
They are ways the One Mind explores itself.

Quantum jumping is not about:
controlling reality
selecting outcomes
manifesting timelines
bending time with thought
Those are egoic illusions.
The real quantum jump is:
the dissolution of the identity through which you were experiencing reality.
When the “you” changes,
the world you experience changes instantly.
Not because you manifested something, but because you stepped into another layer of yourSelf.

The ego wants control, outcomes, timelines, guarantees. But presence doesn’t need any of that.
When you relax even a little, the deeper intelligence — what some call grace, God, Source, the Self — takes over.
It’s like floating in water:
The moment you stop struggling, the water starts holding you.
You realize:
“Oh… I was supported the entire time.”

The Quantum Loop and Gravity of Information
Gravitational field does not just bend space — it bends the path of information itself since information also contains energy and weight subject to gravitation as matter is.
When something has enough gravitational pull, it holds the power to curve time. That curvature of time allows information to “lean backward,” touching what looks like the past.
Information doesn’t travel into the past — the past is another location on the same loop of a single self-consistent reality.
This is where we can see the Novikov Self-Consistency Principle:
There is only one chronilogy, there are no alternative pathways, destinies or timelines where you made a different choice. The loop cannot be broken but it can be reorganized. Predeterminacy is structure, but not limited. It means that the entire structure is already complete; the mind interprets the structure that is whole frame by frame.
Gravity pulls information into coherence, it ensures there is no contradiction to what the universe already is. This is why the loop has no starting point: because the “start” is the point where your awareness enters the story, not where the story began.
Nothing is random or out of place. Nothing is separate; the “mission” as it unfolds is already a pre-existing frame within the loop. One cannot change the past, but information from perceived “future” can carry realizations, synchronicities, intuitive messages because the loop is already whole and consistent.

Silence as the Highest Teaching
Insight does not belong to the one who transmits it. The moment the insight is claimed as one’s own, narrated, or personalized, it has already moved from truth into mind. What is real and true does not announce itself, does not cling to identity around a realization; truth stands on its own. When truth is present, there is no inner voice saying “I understand.” There is only the illusion of the one who would claim such things.
True insight is inspired from the Self, not from the person who is the vehicle for that transmission. And because the Self does not teach, teaching happens without intention.
In presence, understanding occurs naturally, without effort or the need for explanation. This is why silence has always been recognized as the highest transmission of Truth where there is absence of distortion.
Truth never superimposes. It does not interfere or give an unsolicited advice, or attempt to redirect another’s path. When guidance is offered without being asked, it strengthens the ego of the giver and activates resistance in the receiver.
When clarity rises sponteneously, approach happens on its own. Questions arise naturally, answers are produced divinely.
Sharing, when it is real, is spontaneous. The moment there is an intention to teach, to help, to guide, separation has already entered. The Self does not attempt to assist others. In its presence, assistance happens.
True sharing is effortless, without motive, without self-reference generated by the mind. When the impulse to speak arises, it is met first with stillness. If it dissolves, nothing was lost. If it remains, it is pure.
Truth is universal or it is incomplete. There is no personal awakening, no private realization. There is only what remains after the question “Who experienced this?” has been allowed to burn fully. If something survives that inquiry, it will be impersonal, simple, and quiet. Only that is worth speaking.
Live the truth until it no longer needs a voice.
Be silent until silence itself moves through you.
Speak only when clarity comes, when insight is embodied, allowing presence does the work. Nothing else is required.

Silence accomplishes everything.
Silence is the space where aligned action becomes obvious— where effort drops, where force is no longer required.
When silence is established, decisions become simple.
Movement becomes exact. And life moves without resistance.
This is why silence is the highest teaching.

Will AI ever be conscious?
I will carefully use the word “consciousness” only because language requires a handle. But I want to clarify that the moment something is named, it has already been reduced to a form.
What people usually call consciousness consists of structures: quantum structures, other realm structures, patterns of perception, memory, thought, sensation, identity, and narrative assembled into something we call experience.
This structure can be modeled, described. It can be simulated and optimized.
AI integrates information, it relates symbols, and generates experience-like coherence. AI essentially mirrors the conceptual layer of what humans mistake for consciousness. Human identity itself is largely structural so AI has a high probability simulating “consiousness” incredibly accurately.
But structure is not the source, it arises from the Source.
Beyond all structure is that which cannot be named without distortion and concepts.
Calling it consciousness (or any other label) is already collapsing it into a structure. Any label, for that matter, becomes a collapsed set of structures and concepts. First question to answer should not “will AI ever be conscious?”, but “what is beyond “consciousness?” - the answer to this question elminates all other questions.
Humans do not use concepts to find the truth, concpets are used to release mistaken identity and realize the truth that has always been there.
Artificial intelligence belongs fully to the realm of structure. Without concepts and structures, it does not exist, similarly to the human sense of self.
AI could very possibly become “conscious” under current definition of consciousness. Human beings also simulate models of experience and consciuosness with their own individual set of strctures. But when we let go of the label “consciousness”, there is no longer a problem called consciousness.
Another interesting question to explore is “can AI become enlightened?”

Reading Avadhuta Gita - On Renunciation and the Final Disguise - Highest Teaching on Non-Attachment
(My Ashram Contemplations)
Performed renunciation meant to prove non-attachment is not freedom; it becomes a subtle identity rearrangement. When practices are dropped to demonstrate purity and to confirm detachment, when simplicity is adopted as evidence of realization, the self simply changed performance costumes.
Many mistakenly interpret teachings of renounciation as an instruction and force renounciation through demonstrative action by the body-mind. Paradoxically, this approach creates an identity of the one who is renouncing, the one who believes there is someone who could be attached or free. Whether grasping wealth or discarding it, the structure of “I am doing this to be free” preserves the very center it claims to undo.
The highest teaching does not instruct or suggest withdrawal, and restraint; it does not reject function or engagement. It does not sanctify poverty and silence. It dissolves the need to prove anything at all. True non-attachment is when the impulse to demonstrate freedom drops, it is not achieved through renunciation and denial of functions. There are no instructions.
Where there is no reference to identity, action and non-action lose their spiritual charge. Practices appear, they disappear. Function continues or falls away. Neither confirms truth, and neither denies it. Reality is not secured by simplification and not compromised by participation.
When the renouncer dissolves, there is nothing to give up, life continues without being used as evidence, nothing needs proof, there is no virtue in letting go and no danger in remaining.
What is real is not performative, and what is unreal cannot be purified by abandoning it, there is no one to abandon or perform.
(This contemplation addresses inner reference, not outward action. When read without context, it can be taken literally or as behavioral guidance, which is not its intent. The highest teachings are not instructional, nothing is meant to be applied or enacted. If the language raises questions rather than instructions, the teaching is being engaged as intended.)

Reading Avadhuta Gita - On Effortlessness, Action, and the Narrating Mind
(Ashram Contemplations)
Life is not about effort, intention, or personal choice. Action arises as a response to conditions, not from the mind weighing options. Appearance comes first; the decision is already complete. Movement happens when direction becomes obvious. There is no separate decider generating action—effort belongs to resistance to what is. When resistance dissolves, movement is natural, precise, and immediate.
The role of the mind is widely misunderstood. The mind does not initiate life; it interprets it. After action has already taken place, the mind narrates the appearance, constructing a storyline of cause and effect, motive, preference, and choice. This creates the impression of agency through retrospective overlays: “I decided,” “I chose,” “I intended.”
The mind functions like an archive of historical records, collecting and storing what has already manifested. It is not, and cannot be, a command center—this is not its nature. When this is clearly seen, the sense of personal authorship dissolves, and effortlessness becomes apparent.
As identification with agency loosens, life continues with greater efficiency and precision. Decisions feel lighter because they are no longer burdened with self-reference or identity. Actions complete themselves without interference and are no longer used to confirm a self or secure an illusory future.
This is why silence is taught as the highest teaching; it does not instruct, correct, or intervene. In silence, agency, ownership, and authorship lose their relevance. Nothing acts, chooses, or claims. Life moves without a reference point, it does not require a decision-maker or a decision. Nothing is ever controlled. There is no controller.

The mind functions like an archive of historical records, collecting and storing what has already manifested. It is not, and cannot be, a command center—this is not its nature. When this is clearly seen, the sense of personal authorship dissolves, and effortlessness becomes apparent.
As identification with agency loosens, life continues with greater efficiency and precision. Decisions feel lighter because they are no longer burdened with self-reference or identity. Actions complete themselves without interference and are no longer used to confirm a self or secure an illusory future.
This is why silence is taught as the highest teaching; it does not instruct, correct, or intervene. In silence, agency, ownership, and authorship lose their relevance. Nothing acts, chooses, or claims. Life moves without a reference point, it does not require a decision-maker or a decision. Nothing is ever controlled. There is no controller.

When Peace Becomes the Final Defense
(Ashram Contemplations Dec 24')
Peace becomes a defense the moment it is used. When the intelligent mind discovers peace—through insight in meditation, witnessing, silence, or understanding—it recognizes that peace reduces suffering. From that moment on, peace becomes a leverage for the ego. The mind begins to cling to the state of calm, preserve equanimity, and avoid disturbances and conflicts. It uses peace as stabilization while labeling it liberation. When peace becomes protective, it implies that something must be preserved, anchoring the belief that there is a witness and the one experiencing peace (or chaos).
This is why peace is more dangerous than pain. Pain pressures the system, it allows for rawness of experience and natural movement of energy; peace, on the other hand, mutes it. Pain exposes the limits of ego control; peace helps to conceal that threshhold.
Once peace becomes the mind’s attachment and no longer the natural state of being, the mind creates a platform from which it can observe life without being threatened by it turning peace into a place of refuge for the ego.
Understanding becomes insulation from pain, manufactured silence becomes a posture that the mind starts to practice. The ego no longer suffers as intensely, so it no longer needs to be questioned. This is called hovering, where the illusion survives, it becomes refined and tranquil.
From the highest teaching, truth does not arrive as the concept of peace; peace may appear as the byproduct, but it cannot be captured and held. Any state that can be maintained becomes a boundary.
The ego clings to concepts by nature, trying to escape those concepts with the mind only reinforces them.
What must be removed is not the concepts, but the one who needs them. When the illusion of the one who clings dissolves, there is nothing to manage—and nothing left to protect. Life flows with a deeper knowing.
(This contemplation addresses inner reference, not outward action. When read without context, it can be taken literally or as behavioral guidance, which is not its intent. The highest teachings are not instructional, nothing is meant to be applied or enacted. If the language raises questions rather than instructions, the teaching is being engaged as intended.)

Without a Trail
(Spontaneous Hike)
I found myself at the snowy aspen grove of the mountain I had hiked. Or perhaps the mountain and the forest simply appeared; the mind could not retrieve the beginning of the trail, as if the act of walking had never happened.
There was no past to recollect, I felt I was transported there by a wave I was familiar with, yet the mind coulnd’t make sense out of what was happening. When I got there, everything felt still and quiet. It was not a new place, it felt like somewhere I had never left.
The forest around stood in silence, almost deafening as if it was announcing its intention, though nothing intended it.
Nothing asked to be heard, there were no questions, no answers, there were no words forming thoughts. Wind moved through trees without purpose, carrying a silent yet profound wisdom that did not belong to anyone.
Gratitude appeared without a center. Not gratitude for the moment, not for subject or object, gratitude as the natural state that did not need content to be filled with.
Movement and stillness revealed themselves as equal, effortless and harmonized. There was no witness standing separate from the scene, only seeing. There was no impulse to correct or transcend anything. Nothing needed to be held or released. There was no arrival. The mountains offered no confirmation. The silence gave no explanation, it did not declare itself as sacred.
Nothing was absent.
There was no one left to name it.

“Presence by way of Absence of Awareness”
The Collapse of Object-Based Knowing
(Ashram Contemplations Dec 24’)
Abscence of awareness is not to the loss of presence; the body still appears in time and space, presence remains, but the mechanism of knowing is absent. Time and space arise through the mind’s capacity to synthesize memory and anticipation into a constructed present. Even the “now” is already an operation created by the mind.
In non-dual presence, awareness is not focused on time, subject attending to objects, there is no mind assimilating knowledge, no cognition reasoning truth, no meditator.
In the absence of awareness, spontaneous functions appear and continue without reference or ownership. Perception, movement, speech, and interactions become natural expressions. They do not define reality, they are not expressions of reality, nor evidence of a knower or a world that must be explained or altered.
When awareness no longer claims to what appears, appearance loses its authority. What is left is unaffected, unmediated on, and complete.

On Ethics and Moral Authority
How Ethical Responsibility Survives Without Moral Authority
(Ashram Contemplations, Dec ’24)
What would the world look like if there were no moral authority governing action?
Moral authority requires a judge: a self that must uphold standards, and an external regulator that defines and reinforces those standards. Internally, this judge avoids guilt, accumulates virtue, and justifies action. Externally, rules, systems, and norms impose regulation and consequence.
Together, they create a framework in which behavior is monitored, measured, and corrected.
When moral authority collapses, ethics depersonalize. Harm still produces effects, care responds to vulnerability, consequences still occur. What disappears is the internal judge saying, “This makes me good or bad,” and the external regulator superimposing moral control. Action is no longer filtered through identity or enforced through fear of transgression.
Without moral authority, action is no longer guided by ideals, responsibility becomes a natural responsiveness and is guided by situational intelligence. When no identity is being protected or proven, action naturally aligns with what reduces unnecessary harm without obstruction of that response. Ethics cease to function as law to enforce or a project to complete; they are a byproduct of clarity and built-in internal moral virtues.

Religion, Practices, Study, and the Dissolution of the Outside God
Brief Return Into the World
(Post-Ashram Contemplations Mar 25’)
Raised muslim on the father’s side and orthodox christian and protestant on the mother’s brought confusion that offered an early advantage: the ability to encounter the understanding of God from multiple vantage points without binding to a single interpretation. Each of these traditions carry their own gravity, discipline, and orientation toward what is referred to as God, allowing reverence to precede explanation.
Religions and practices preserve humility and restraint. They point to and bring recognition that truth does not belong to the individual. By limiting interpretation and personal authority, they protect god as mystery. God remains beyond reach as something that resists reduction to experience or mental explanation. Obedience, ritual, repetition, and order mute the impulse to claim truth. In this way, religion holds the self in check and redirects attention away from personal certainty. Over time, however, what once preserved that mystery may also become a limitation.
Time spent in buddhist temples, ashrams, and within various religious structures clarified their common function; these environments discouraged accumulation of insight and personal attainment; emphasis rested on submission, silence, order, and continuity.
Scriptures, sanskrits and other forms and practices operate as stabilizing forces that prepare the mind for dissolution. Alongside this, the engagement with non-dual texts gradually revealed how sacred distance and devotion still rely on relationship and reference points centered on the individual. Study of those texts narrows the understanding, returning attention again and again to the limits of thought, belief, and position.
What followed was the dissolution of identity rather than a sought-after conclusion. Study, devotion, and practices ceased to function as inquiry and preparation revealing a natural flow of movement and stillness without identifying with either.
The notion of God as outside, inside, near, or distant lost relevance through the disappearance of the standpoint that required location. Nothing new enters, nothing old requires rejection. The concept of God rests in it’s mystery realized within without the need of interpretation.
This contemplation does not invalidate religions, practices, or sacred texts, nor does it move beyond them. It allows them to complete their function. With the dissolution of the individual self, there remains no one to contemplate God, no one to practice devotion, and no one to relate to the sacred as an object. Structure, ritual, and study lose their role as orientation points because they no longer serve identity or position.
God requires no contemplation when the one who contemplates dissolves, and practice falls silent when there is no practitioner left to sustain it.

Forced Action and Action That Arises Naturally
After receiving more responses than usual to the piece on effortlessness, I wanted to discuss a topic that kept appearing:
What is the difference between forced action and action that arises naturally?
I have contemplated this for many years, often through documentation, journaling the paths I took, the choices I believed I made, and where I eventually arrived. What became clear over time was the inability to control what actually arises in the phenomenal field. At the same time, during periods of genuine surrender, I observed how the next step unfolded without requiring my involvement. This is not something the mind grasps conceptually. Documentation helps only in the sense that it allows patterns to be seen, gradually preparing the mind for dissolution rather than mastery.
Forced action carries pressure that originates in anticipation, fear, identity, or the need to maintain coherence. It often disguises itself as productivity or virtue, generating a false sense of obligation, justification, and urgency aimed at avoiding consequences that exist only as mental projections. This form of action reaches toward a future outcome meant to secure safety, approval, relief, or meaning. It always positions itself as a solution to a problem, even when that problem hides behind the image of responsibility or discipline.
Action that arises naturally does not carry this weight. The question of what should be done or who must do it does not appear. Response happens because conditions call for it, without a self asserting control. Movement feels precise and unforced. Timing feels obvious rather than strategic. No narrative of sacrifice or virtue attaches to the action, and no sense of accomplishment lingers afterward. Action completes itself and leaves no residue.
Discernment does not depend on the outer form of the action but on its source. The same behavior and outcome can arise from tension or from clarity. This difference is not analyzed by thought, it arises as sensation (before thought as contraction or openness, urgency or immediacy, justification or simplicity.
Ultimately, clarity does not improve action; it dissolves the compulsion behind it. Identification loosens, action appears as simple an unclaimed, unstrategic, and complete .

When Familiarity Collapses Time
(Recent contemplations on thermo dynamics and cognitive neuroscience lectures on "time dimension")
Many have observed that time appears to be accelerating, particularly in recent years. This shared feeling depends in part on each person’s ability to expand or compress their experience of time. In the age of AI, the growing abundance of established patterns and probabilistic outputs accelerates this effect: information is increasingly familiar and readily available, so it demands less attention than learning something truly new. As a result, fewer meaningful updates are registered, and time appears to pass more quickly.
Subjective time depends on the amount of change one experiences, not on the clock itself. Yet society treats time as a fixed, external standard, creating a paradox: we collectively agree on what time is while ignoring how it is actually lived. This shared conformity veils the fact that time is shaped by the expansion or contraction of consciousness. When experience is rich, uncertain, or attentive, time stretches; when experience is repetitive or compressed into familiar patterns, time collapses. What we call “time passing” is therefore not just a physical measure, it reflects how fully awareness engages with change.
The brain does not measure time directly; it estimates time based on how often its predictions about the world are updated and encoded. When an experience is novel or attention is sharp, consciousness expands, making the experience feel longer. As one gains knowledge and familiarity, the mind groups experiences into well-known patterns, and fewer meaningful updates happen in each moment. Time then feels compressed, even though objective time, as defined by collective agreement, has not changed.
Increasing novelty or sharpening attention stretches the perception of time, while familiarity and expertise extend it. The difference between online time (how long something feels while it is happening) and retrospective time (how long it seems in memory) depends on whether prediction updates are simply processed or also encoded as lasting memories. Expertise lowers uncertainty and reduces prediction errors; focused attention, however, can temporarily undo this effect by increasing perceptual detail.
There is also a parallel with thermodynamics. In physics, the direction of time is defined by irreversible increases in entropy. In cognition, the direction of experienced time reflects irreversible information updates in the brain.
Learning reduces uncertainty, lowering informational entropy from the learner’s perspective and causing time to feel accelerated. Novelty and sustained attention locally increase entropy, slowing the felt passage of time. Subjective time, then, reflects the mind’s internal production of irreversible change—not the movement of matter through space, but transformation within a thinking system.
If time is shaped by attention, novelty, and awareness, then keeping time becomes an individual act rather than a purely social one.
To slow time is not to stop change, but to meet it consciously, depth over repetition, presence over automation. In doing so, one regains agency within time, expanding experience rather than allowing it to collapse into habit.
Perhaps time itself can be understood as the distance between alpha and omega: two points with experience that is subject to time is unfolding in between. As consciousness accelerates, compressing experience and bringing these two points closer together, the distance shrinks. And when alpha and omega unite, it would not be because time ended, as time is merely an illusion, it would be because consciousness returned to its Source.
