What is Time?
That is question put by one of my friends.


In the Ultimate Wisdom, Time is only a dimension of Supreme Existence, what may be defined as the Existence-Consciousness-Bliss. Before That, there is no Time. Time begins, as and when Manifestation begins ! With Manifestation, Time is Eternal.

Big Bang or no Big Bang, in Manifestation Time is Eternal When we read Hawking, we are led to believe that there are and will be many universes, and therefore many Big Bangs!

But as the Supreme is Eternal, His Manifestation is also Eternal. There is no beginning, no end. The Supreme Will is not limited by human thought or human belief or human understanding!

Hence one aspect of Time is that it is not there. And another aspect is that it is Eternal. Time is then Eternity. And when it comes to the human level, it becomes artificially limited to seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries, millennia and so on divided by men, artificially.

However, in the pragmatic sense, that is also a level of Truth - though a lesser Truth.

Above, I referred to Stephen Hawking. Hawking is the newest scientist-thinker who does not believe in the concept of 'singularity' of the classical Big Bang theory. And in his concept, the extension of universe is beyond time and space, that is, eternal. He has said that there are and will be several universes. There will be no end. No end of Matter. No end of universes. No end of Time and Space. There is no limit, no boundary. His thought is very close to Indian Philosophy. I seek to quote about his concepts :

“In collaboration with Jim Hartle, Hawking developed a model in which the Universe had no boundary in space-time, replacing the initial singularity of the classical Big Bang models with a region akin to the North pole; while one cannot travel North of the North pole, there is no boundary there. While originally the no-boundary proposal predicted a closed Universe, discussions with Neil Turok led to the realization that the no-boundary proposal is consistent with a Universe which is not closed also.” {Wikipaedia]
