Overcoming Time
Overcoming Time
July 2011
The West has always been under the spell of Aristotle's conception of time.
The trichotomy of past, present, and future has framed all analysis of time ever
since. It is time that time itself be overcome. .
The reason for overcoming time: Time as the basic structure of
evil/egoism/possession/protection/security/domination/conatus essendi.
Aristotle's analysis of time.
Augustine's analysis of time.
Kant's analysis of time.
Husserl's analysis of time.
Heidegger's analysis of time.
Nietzsche's overcoming of time.
Levinas's overcoming of time.
Buddhism's overcoming of time.
Attention to the present – Zen.
Intention without time – Buddhism.
Mystics' participation in the present.
Participation in the Whole – Um.
Conclusion: What if time had never existed?
