Comments on: What is time?

I have been studying nearly for 40 years to find out the relationship between time and energy in the light of SRT and GRT. My formula: Time flow = Time / Energy is originated from these theories. However, as compared to Einstein’s SRT and GRT in which the time is related to both velocity and gravity respectively, my theory associates time only with energy. I have also three correspondences published in Galilean Electrodynamics Journal about my theory.

It is not suitable to provide yoall the details about my theory in this message, for that reason please see my website timeflow.org for further information.

Could you please and evaluate and put some comments to my theory?

Many Thanks.

Sincerely

Salih KIRCALAR

Time is the Currency of Love!

As we move along our “worldlines”, which traverse “four-dimesional spacetime”,
we invariably put our money, however much is allotted us, where our
own hearts happen to be at any given moment.

This world is one ever changing electromagnetic continuum. As Human
Beings we are but sparkles of Everlasting Life, Bubbles of
Consciousness, trapped like amber inclusions inside this ocean of
light. It is a pleasure to contemplate the scene.

I love Nature. Its manifestations are amazing!

I have always been amazed at all the natural phenomena, from photons
to wild life to vertebrate nervous and endocrine systems to
consciousness and culture.
The way our mind reflects and creates reality is amazing.

Time relates to all natural phenomena in the same way as length,
height, and width, I suppose. Those qualities may change under
different circumstances and since our subjective perception of those
qualities varies from person to person it makes the process of
investigation more intriguing.
I love Time. It is part of the Nature.

But, what is your relationship with Time?
Do you think Time is finite or infinite? If it is finite, what was
before Time and what
is beyond it? How do you get along with Time?

“Time is one of the properties of the matter”
Sure, only though that one can (in a manner of speaking) solve E=MC^2 for C and C has a component of time…sort-ta. That which ‘knows’ light speed knows no time so solving for a no-time component gets a bit weird. If you look at the sun (quickly) that spot that remains on your retina left the sun (its electromagnetic imprint) about 8 minutes ago (light takes time to travel) but only in that you are NOT the photon. If you were the photon it would take you thousands of years to boil up to the surface of the sun (stars atmosphere) but then NO TIME to travel to the Earth. Seeing as how Matter is energy (E=MC^2 again) it is only that it is energy because the rate at which it travels is less than light ‘speed’…aaaah, it’s relative (you know). We are composed of matter which is condensed energy and we are matter only because we can no longer move at light speed…at the particle (atomic) level the atom has about 99.9% space in it so we too then are mostly space (not nothing). Matter, mass and to materialism goes quantum at the very small and the very fast. Time is energy’s method of movement from the orderly to the chaotic–things decal out–we get old–iced coffee warms up and hot coffee cools down…all will eventually reach a thermal equilibrium (become more entropic) and that “eventually” (word) allows for time.
Let me ask you something. Do YOU ‘like’ time? why or why not? If you do not ‘like’ the word “like” then: Do you get along with and function well within time? Again why or why not?

“Time does exist” In what sense of kind can it be? Length? Weight?, Color? It is like asking one to answer: How long is a piece of string? More information is required…information that for all the possibility is Hawking Radiation and stuck to the event horizon of massive black holes…?! Time does have a link to ‘entropy’ it (time) is a result of the function of a universe which is not eternal nor infinite. Time points the universe into a one way ‘arrow’ of decay and end. All that is (material) was at one ‘time’ only energy…and it is that way it will go–eventually to be crushed by gravity or to escape in the expanding universe lost. The energy was first seeded at the Big Bang with information, laws of the universe, forces, and relationship…all to eventually reach a thermal equilibrium.

Time is a subjective perception of continuous relationships between different states of space configurations. Time does exist! We perceive it through the changes and events that take place in this space-time realm of which we are part. Since we can only observe certain events by which time is measured, Time itself seems to be either something invisibly stretched and spread into perpetuity or just an illusion. Perhaps, it seems so because we ourselves are just observers in physical bodies and are part of those same changes we observe and we can observe the space configurations and the relationship between their various states from within only. We are space configurations. When we as Beings reach out and beyond these space configurations, our perception of Time will change. Then, Time might begin to seem to us more as an Entity, whereas space configurations in their various states and their relationships as mere illusions.

Time is illusion,and yes you are right, time is considerations

Perpetual states are beyond space-time. Happenings take place within space and time. Perpetual, eternal states find their expression in happenings. Between the realm of “no space-time” and the realm of “space-time” there is the transitional zone of various states of consciousness. What happened depends on the state of your consciousness which is aware of everything in terms of various space configurations and their relationships.

my question is if their is no time in space how is it still motion out there? I think that if all time stopped anyone would have unlimted time to do anything ,but if time start again where it stopped at ,all what you did between where it stopped and started it never happened.

Definition of time will perhaps become easier as soon as we answer the question: Who is the definer?

I am convinced that darkness rules the Universe. Simply because black holes are the most powerful forces in the Universe, sucking in light. So not even light can overcome a blackhole making darkness the ruler over everything.

Time is motion(group of movement)

I’m not too sure that time is a thing as is a ‘car’ or a ‘hangnail’. Rather time is a sense as in love or integrity as time relates to what is done in the physical world. In other words if it were not for time then we would not be able to appreciate or even relate or react in the world we know as is: length., width, depth or as is time space matter energy and intelligence.

It also seems clear that time is not definable unless space is included: the universe is a fabric sort of definable as a rubber sheet whereby our mass (material) in life deforms the fabric (be that mass us or the Earth or an infinite mass…a black hole).

But allow me to go in another direction!

In that we are complainers of time for a reason: We complain that time is too long when we are young and too short when we are old. We try to save time, borrow time, kill time, make time, cut time and etc ad nausium. We also wear time (wristwatch), make a history (whereby we want to learn from past mistakes but regret that we all too often do not succeed), and plan a calendar (filling it up but often in vain).

We complain about time because we are foreign to this physical world: whereas an astronaut gets inside his space suit to experience an EVA mission, we are spirits put inside an earthsuit (body) to experience the physical world and to accomplish a mission here in recognizing the design and specialality that is this planet, universe, and life.

Now is this going to jump into Bible verses and God and Christianity? Well, it could…because there are verses in the Bible that smack enough to where science and philosophy are pointing…and if that bothers you then good and if it does not bother you then…get bothered!

Why is it that no matter what we do or get or desire it is never enough and we always want more? I assure you…that, that which makes you, you and not me is not going to be able to take it all with you when you leave your earthsuit (body). What if, when we step through deaths door there is just existence without the need of an earthsuit (body) because we will then not longer be in dimension to experience only the four dimensions but be beyond them?

Scientists state via the WMAP satellite that the Big-Bang is basically fact—there was a beginning to time-space, matter, and energy. And, let me so bold as to add in ‘Intelligence’ (yes that is with a capital “I”). What if we are more than just Darwnian ‘meat’ robots but that we are timeless spirits on a mission of exploration (aren’t we all insatiably curious?) to explore and to then relate to this intelligence?

Time certainly is weird and it has been related to entropy (the decay of energy potential into an even quantity…a heat death). Without that second law of thermodynamics we would last forever here (well, until the planet failed to support us) and frankly, we would not be happy about that either. Life is work! Life is interesting!! Life is Pain!!! Life is Love. We are complicated creatures to the point to which we should look like creatures from a far off distant galaxy from the ‘eyes’ of every other creature here on this planet. Frankly, we do not fit here! When animals sleep they just replenish their biological strength but when we sleep we do that plus we understand (know) that we are disconnected from the experience of reality around us…we are out of time…we are in a dreamlike state…we are totally defenseless/vulnerable. We should not like that if Darwinianism is all we have to fall back on for our ‘existence’!?
