Paul Brunton Philosophic Foundation homepage > Notebooks of Paul Brunton



In timelessness there is no past to remember, no future to foresee, no sense of one moment succeeding another which is the present. In timelessness we experience only being, whereas in time we experience what the metaphysicians and the Buddhists call becoming. Whereas our experience is in fragments, whether it be now or later or in the past, in being experience attains wholeness, totality.
