Love is the battery of life....

RE: Does time exist outside of our minds?



Hi,


Time does exist in nature.  Some animals (I think the name in Tsekada or Zekada ?) have a living cycle of 17 years..... (eggs hatch each 17 years !)...... and a similar creature to the Tsekada have a cycle of 19 years (so they "meet" once in many hundred years).  Plants have time to bloom, birds have time to migrate, animals have time to get on heat, and time to give birth, time to get fat (B4 winter) etc....  So time is not only in our mind only.
Best regards,

There's searching, and there's studying, and there's everything else.

RE: Does time exist outside of our minds?



Well, we presume it does, and we act (and can't hardly help but act) on that presumption, and so that seems like a good enough answer from one side.  I hold to that one.

But I also am fascinated by the playing around with time performed in literary philosophy by authors like Borges and W.G. Sebald.  And the question of where the border is also difficult to figure...  So to the extent that I am convinced or at least held suspended and enthralled by the way some play with the question, I believe it remains good-humoredly open.

RE: Does time exist outside of our minds?



I don't think it does.Take for example,when we sleep and our minds are at rest,we don't sense "time"we don't know how many hours we've slept,till we awake and look at the clock.

Time is only relevant to concious beings.

Dates and times only exist as a means of existence.

Without existence we have no use for time so it would cease to exist.

TJS.
