Here and now state is the truth of life, in the lap of it we are leading life. Truth of our life is the Present, that shapes our reality. Living in the Present needs a complete understanding of what is Present?. For analytical and explanatory purposes, the “Present” could be divided into two parts. The first part is the ‘Peripheral state” (Surface reality) which is external, physical, tangible, past dependent and visible to our eyes. Generally, we experience this state and it is perceived easily by us from the beginning of our lives. Hence we call it as ‘Outer Present.’ It is experienced as infinite outer existence with Ecosystem, body and mind. It is also labelled with different names like superficial reality, periphery, materialistic world, Prakruti , outer spirit, outer truth, outer self…etc.,
The second part of the ‘Present’ is an important dimension, which we need to understand scientifically. From a scientific perspective, the whole of Outer Present is made up of atoms with the inner content of 99.9999999% empty-like-space which we refer to as Inner Present. It is experienced as deep sleep like state. It is also labelled with different names like Deeper reality, Inherent present state, center, Real I, core, Purusha, inner spirit, inner truth, inner self… etc.,
Can anyone live outside the present? We believe in past, present and future, but we forget the fact that they are only points in the given series of ‘Present
Past is past or history, it won’t comeback, Do not brood over past, Past is known, Do not worry about future & Past will help you to handle the present.
Make present beautiful – future will be taken care
But Present is the only universal truth which is constant, unchanging and exists forever hence called ever-present reality.
We are born with this state and it is present not only when we are alive, but also continues to exist beyond our death. Hence, it is also called ‘Ever-Present State’.
Every human being should understand the peripheral outer present and core inner present dimensions of his personality in order to achieve “completeness” or “wholeness.”
Our Core Present is beyond time and space. Whereas Outer or Peripheral Present is dependent on both ‘past’ and ‘future’ or an illusion.
Present has wholeness inclusive of both outer and inner Present. Wholeness means all the contents of existence from Quantum essence [ inner present] to infinite galaxies[outer present]
