Don't talk about how you don't have time. You have exactly the same amount of time as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, Pasteur, Helen Keller, Albert Einstein had.
To take away an hour of a person's time, to take away a person's life - the only difference is in scale.
"Frank Herbert"
Whoever wins time wins everything.
"Jean Baptiste Poquelin"
Time, of course, is a good healer for a heart that has not received a response in love, and separation helps even more. But neither time nor separation can drown out the longing for a lost friend or calm a heart that has never known happy love.
"Thomas Main Reid"
Nothing replaces old friendship. Years do not add friends, they take them away, take them along different roads. Time tests friendship for rupture, fatigue, and loyalty. The circle of friends is thinning, but there is nothing more valuable than those who remain.
There is nothing longer than time, since it is the measure of eternity; there is nothing shorter than it, since it is missing for all our endeavors... All people neglect it, everyone regrets its loss.
"F. Voltaire"
The hour had come - it seemed to me that I had been waiting for it forever. An hour has passed - I can remember endlessly.
He who lets his time slip away lets his life slip from his hands; he who holds his time in his hands holds his life in his hands.
"Alan Lacane"
Love for the past time is often nothing more than hatred for the present time.
"Pierre Buast"
Time should be managed as wisely as money.
"Randy Pausch"
If time is the most precious thing, then wasting time is the biggest waste.
"B. Franklin"
Your time is limited, don't waste it living another life. Don't get caught up in a creed that exists in other people's thinking. Don't let the views of others drown out your own inner voice. And it is very important to have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you really want to do. Everything else is secondary.
"Steve Jobs"
In fact, no time exists, there is no “tomorrow”, there is only the eternal “now”.
"B. Akunin"
Time is the most valuable thing a person can spend.

Ideas are the daughters of the past and the mothers of the future and always slaves of time!
"Gustave Le Bon"
Times change, and we change with them.
"Quintus Horace"
Each act is nothing in comparison with the infinity of space and time, and at the same time its action is infinite in space and time
If you want, you will find time; if you don’t want, you will find a reason.
There is no atonement, no remission of sins; sin has no price. It cannot be bought back until time itself has been bought back.
Never be late, especially to someone you need.
"Renata Litvinova"
Time passes, that's the problem. The past grows and the future shrinks. There are fewer and fewer chances to do anything - and more and more resentment for what you did not manage to do.
Time flies - that's bad news. The good news is that you are a pilot of your time.
"F. Dzerzhinsky"
Sometimes a day is worth more than a year. Sometimes a year is not worth a day.
Very few people know how to properly manage their wealth, even fewer who know how to manage their time, and of these two things the last is the most important.

The water you touch is the last one to flow and the first one to arrive. So it is with time. Don't regret anything, appreciate the past but never stop.
A person finds time for everything he really wants.
“F.M. Dostoevsky"
Life is not about the days that have passed, but about the days that remain.
"D. Pisarev"
The future must be embedded in the present.
There are always problems with the nobility. They cling to life more stubbornly. The average peasant is just waiting - he can’t wait to leave this world.
Usually people don't notice how time flies.

Time is an amazing phenomenon. There is so little of it when you are late and so much of it when you are waiting.
By giving up the phrase “I don’t have time...”, you will soon realize that you have time for almost everything you consider necessary to do in life.

Don't waste time on a person who doesn't want to spend it with you.
"Gabriel Marquez"
Some moments taste like eternity.
Time moves slowly when you follow it... it feels watched. But it takes advantage of our absent-mindedness. It is even possible that there are two times: the one we follow, and the one that transforms us.
"A. Camus"
Successive years steal something from us every day, until finally they steal us.
"Alexander Pope"
And time does not heal. It mends the wounds, it simply covers them on top with a gauze bandage of new impressions, new sensations, life experiences... And sometimes, clinging to something, this bandage flies off, and fresh air enters the wound, giving it new pain... and new life... Time- bad doctor... Makes you forget about the pain of new wounds, inflicting more and more new ones. So we crawl through life, like its wounded soldiers... And every year the number of poorly applied bandages in our soul grows and grows...
"Erich Maria Remarque"
The universe and time are infinite, which means that any event is inevitable, even the impossible.
Time is a tyrant that has its own whims and that every century looks at what they do and say with different eyes.
An ordinary person thinks about how to spend his time. A smart person thinks about how to use time.
Even in the worst fate there are opportunities for happy changes.
"Erasmus of Rotterdam"
Only what should happen happens. Everything starts on time. And it ends too.
“Fyodor Dostoevsky?”
There are many ways to kill time - and not one to resurrect it.
The man who founded IKEA divides his entire day into ten-minute chunks. This is what he says: “If ten minutes have passed, then it’s irrevocable. Divide your life into ten-minute pieces and don’t let even a moment waste away.”
As a child, three months of summer vacation seem like an eternity. And as soon as we grow up, whole years fly by, before we even have time to blink an eye. However, time as such does not change, no matter how old we are. So why does its perception change so much in our minds? Perhaps the fact is that we are subjective creatures, and time flows nonlinearly for us? It does not move from point A to point B at a constant speed, but exists in several dimensions and can slow down or speed up.
We live simultaneously in our biological time and in the time associated with an event that is important to us. It’s all our brain’s fault, says neuroscientist Mark Schwob, who gives the example of a state of concentration when solving a complex intellectual problem. At such moments, time seems to pause: “Our limbic system, the center of emotions and sensitivity, temporarily turns off. We don’t perceive the world around us because the cerebral cortex only transmits vital signals.”
But strong emotions can also “stop” time. While we are waiting for our loved one, minutes turn into hours, but as soon as he appears, the sense of time disappears. The “mechanism” in this case is different - it is the limbic system that is actively involved, which produces a huge amount of hormones that literally intoxicate us.
Perhaps the subjective change in the speed of time is also associated with a change in the rhythms of our lives. “We have swapped the periods of rest and active activity: now we work in the winter and rest in the summer. But such changes require adaptation, which means an increase in stress levels, says Mark Schwob. “Stress hormones, cortisol and catecholamines, are increasingly produced by the body, forcing us to constantly rush and causing a feeling of lack of time.” In addition, time in our minds accelerates with age. The older we are, the more often we turn to memories and thoughts about the future - shortening the duration of the present.
Of course, neuroscience is not able to describe and explain the subjectivity of time perception, but it allows us to at least understand its complexity. Both from a biological and a philosophical point of view, the only way to slow down the passage of time is to be aware of it. By changing our attitude towards each specific moment in time and our sense of self in it, we open up eternity to ourselves.
Psychoanalyst's opinion
"Time speeding up is part of growing up"
Svetlana Fedorova, psychoanalytic psychotherapist, senior lecturer at the National Research University Higher School of Economics
“The idea of time is formed in the process of growing up. The child gradually learns that there is a past and a future, and the present is noticeably reduced in his consciousness. The most important leap occurs in adolescence - disappointment as a result of unfulfilled childhood expectations. The teenager realizes that he will never become a knight or prince. From this moment on, the passage of time in his mind begins to accelerate.
In order to find our time, it is necessary to have internal boundaries that are laid in childhood and allow us not to experience excessive anxiety from the fact that we cannot correlate our desires with the reality of life. In a sense, we enter into a dialogue with time, define ourselves in time, fill abstract chaotic time with our own meaning and content. It is important that impersonal time becomes personal, and then we will live every minute of it consciously and with pleasure.”
Neurophysiologist's opinion
"Information processing slows down time"
Alexander Kaplan, Doctor of Biological Sciences, Head of the Laboratory of Neurophysiology and Brain-Computer Interfaces, Faculty of Biology, Moscow State University. M. V. Lomonosova
“There is no brain structure that would be responsible for the sense of time. And the question of time perception is, of course, rather psychological. Man is unable to objectively measure the passage of time. Neuroscientist David Eagleman conducted experiments showing subjects various images. Some of them were familiar to the participants in the experiment, and some they saw for the first time. Eagleman then asked how long the subjects looked at the pictures. It turned out that, according to subjective feelings, the subjects looked at unfamiliar pictures much longer. Meanwhile, the images were shown for equal duration. Obviously, the more the brain is busy processing new information, the subjectively slower time passes. That’s why the 10 years of childhood are so long, the 10 years of adolescence and youth are so short, and the remaining years, no matter how many there are, are so fleeting!”
Philosopher's opinion
"We trust watches too much"
Oleg Aronson, philosopher, art critic, employee of the Institute of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Institute “Russian Anthropological School” of the Russian State University for the Humanities
“When we feel that time is passing too quickly or dragging on endlessly, it is only because we trust too much in objective calculation - the clock, the calendar, and indeed - the orderliness of the world, where the past is followed by the present, and the future follows it. The experience of time and its understanding cannot be reconciled. For Augustine, time is somewhat like the divine presence: it is given without thinking about it, when you ask the question “what is this?” - it disappears. And according to Heidegger, we experience time only because we are mortal. It points us to our finitude; we experience it as a touch of being itself. For Bergson, on the contrary, time is expressed in the idea of duration and connects us, cultivated and technologized people, with the variability of life itself, which does not depend on us.
Every time you have to ask: where is the place of time? Where is it in mathematics? Where is it in psychoanalysis? Where - in everyday life? These are always different images created by the collision of memory and expectation, forgotten and obsessive desire... It can shrink, making our existence mechanistic, or it can stretch indefinitely, revealing in us the capacity for madness and faith.”
Anthropologist's opinion
"Time depends on culture"
Marina Butovskaya, anthropologist, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor at the Center for Social Anthropology of the Russian State University for the Humanities
“Representatives of different cultures experience and structure time differently. From the Datoga, the traditional pastoralists of Tanzania with whom I have worked for many years, you can find out exactly under what circumstances a person was born, but it is useless to ask the date of birth. They do not know their age, only classifying themselves as a group: child, teenager, young man, parent, grandfather.
They agree on the time of the meeting approximately: “at dawn”, “at noon”, “when it gets dark”. Important events (for example, weddings) are timed to coincide with the time of year - when the rains begin, at the beginning of the dry season... Further clarification follows: the ceremony will take place on the full moon or “when the moon has completely waned.” The day and hour are not indicated, but the datagi unmistakably understand when the event should take place. Time in the European sense is not important for them, and no one is annoyed that the event may start several hours later. Everyone is waiting peacefully and doesn’t understand why we Europeans are so impatient.
Ideas about precision, however, vary among industrial cultures, so having a watch does not ensure compliance with agreements. In Latin America, North Africa or the Middle East, an hour and a half late is acceptable. The person waiting is relaxing, drinking coffee, leafing through a book or listening to music. But in Germany, Sweden or Holland, being a few minutes late is already bad form.”

Time - there is nothing longer in the world, for it is the measure of eternity, and there is nothing shorter, for it is not enough to fulfill our desires; there is nothing slower for one who waits, nothing faster for one who tastes pleasure; it reaches infinity in the great and infinitely divides in the small; people neglect it, and when they lose it, they regret it; everything happens in time; it destroys what is unworthy in the memory of posterity.

Priest Alexander Shumsky said that strange things have been happening in recent years - even small children say that time flies very quickly. Meanwhile, adults have long been organizing consultations on the Internet on the topic of what happened over time.
Speaking about modern children, the famous Moscow priest Alexander Shumsky told the Russian Line news agency: “Children’s sense of time is changing. As children, it seemed to us that time flows very slowly, but for an adult, by definition, time flows quickly. I ask young children, but they say that time flies very quickly. My grandson started first grade, and he says that time flies very quickly.”
The priest is perplexed: why does this happen? He speculates: “Either the substance of time is changing objectively, because it is the most incomprehensible substance, or is this impression due to information overload? But in any case, time subjectively passes faster than before.”
According to Priest Alexander, all this is very dangerous, as it leaves an imprint on the psyche. He says that when a person’s internal clock works smoothly, then the psyche develops smoothly and there are no jerks. And when a person is overloaded with information, and time flies quickly, then he, and especially a child, may have mental breakdowns.
The Russian Internet is already full of discussions about the problem of changing time. For example, on one forum a person opened an extensive discussion with the following message: “People, who knows: why does time fly so quickly? Moreover, every time it gets faster and faster! Or am I the only one who feels this way? New Year is coming soon, but it seems like the last one was just recently!”
And even schoolchildren complain that time passes very quickly. For example, on one school forum a girl writes: “Time flies very quickly, and I began to realize this a long time ago. I especially felt it when I entered 12th grade in September and realized that three months had flown by like two weeks for me. Now it’s also flying fast – June is already ending.”
Some forum visitors, citing some unnamed scientists, say that something really happened over time. And others ask questions about this problem to priests on Orthodox websites. But they answer that nothing fundamentally new is happening. None of the scientists have yet made official statements that time has accelerated. On the contrary, all they say is that this is a subjective and little-studied category, and that time passes faster with age.
There are Christian prophecies according to which time will change greatly before the end of the world. The “Posthumous Broadcasts of St. Nile the Myrrh-Streaming Athonite” says that in the very last era of the existence of mankind, when the tyrant Antichrist reigns, something incomprehensible will happen over time.
“The day will rotate like an hour, the week like a day, the month like a week and the year like a month,” said the Monk Neil. “For human wickedness has caused the elements to become tense, to hurry and strain even more, so that the number prophesied by God for the eighth century will end as quickly as possible” (here we mean the eighth millennium from the creation of the world).
Temporal Acceleration Theory
The problem of the modern world is an acute lack of time. At the same time, those over 50 will say that before this shortage was not felt so acutely. There was enough time for work, for rest, and for doing something around the house. Now, literally, you barely have time to do the most necessary things. Why is that?
Many modern scientists have paid attention to the issue of the transience of time, or rather to the fact that it has begun to run much faster than before. The passage of time has been significantly accelerated. This problem could generally be considered fictitious, so to speak, attributed to the subjective perception of a person, if not for the theory of relativity of Albert Einstein, who in 1905, at the age of 25, revolutionized science and ordinary human thinking with his discovery.
He wrote: “Anyone who seriously engages in science is convinced that the laws of the Universe bear the imprint of a higher Intelligence, so superior to human that we, with our modest capabilities, must bow reverently before Him.”
The beginning of the 20th century was the beginning of a particularly progressive development and formation of science. Einstein also made a significant contribution here. Once, when journalists asked him how he made discoveries, Albert Einstein replied: “I simply turn to God, who created all these laws, and ask Him how they work.” This answer was perceived by journalists as a joke, and indeed, it could have been understood as such, if not for the fact that the discoveries made by Einstein exceeded the limits of ordinary human thinking.
He wrote: “The more science comprehends the physical world, the more we come to conclusions that can only be resolved by faith.” The Bible says, “There is one Lord of all, rich to all who call on Him.” (Rom. 10:12) “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.” (James 1:5)
The special theory of relativity - STR, refuted the concept of constancy of many fundamental quantities, such as time, mass, length, etc. For example, in Newtonian mechanics time was considered absolute, it was believed that, as Newton wrote, it “flows the same way, regardless of anything external " “The duration or age of existence of things remains the same, whether the movements are fast or slow or not at all.” Constant synchronicity of time was considered obvious in Newtonian mechanics and independent of different reference systems.
But in the theory of relativity the opposite conclusions were drawn. As a result of the experiments, it turned out that Newton's statements are valid only for special cases when two or more events occur in the same frame of reference. From the postulates of SRT - the special theory of relativity - it follows that time flows differently in different reference systems. If you put exact clocks with exactly the same time readings on different planets in space, you will later find that each clock shows a different time. Different planets move in space at different speeds relative to each other, and each planet is an independent frame of reference.
The duration of events will be shorter in the frame of reference in which the point is stationary. That is, a moving clock runs slower than a stationary clock and shows a longer period of time between events. For example: If you launch a spaceship into space at a speed equal to 99.99% of the speed of light, then according to calculations, if this ship returns to earth in 14.1 years, then 1000.1 years will pass on earth during this time. The higher the speed of a moving object, the slower time passes on it.
Time dilation was directly measured in experiments with chronometers placed on jet aircraft. This experiment was carried out in 1971 by two American physicists, J. S. Heifel and R. E. Keating. The experiment required two fully matched cesium clocks, accurate to 10(-13), that is, with an error of 1/10,000,000,000,000. One of them stood motionless at the Naval Observatory in Washington, and the other was installed on a jet aircraft , which flew around the world, first from east to west, and then vice versa. In both cases, a clear and well-measurable difference was found in the readings of the clocks standing still and the clocks flying on the plane. The difference completely coincided with the theoretically calculated value.
There is another confirmation of time dilation, proven with the help of muons. A muon is an unstable, spontaneously decaying, elementary particle. He has an extremely short lifespan of 0.0000022 seconds. Originating in the upper layers of the atmosphere, it moves towards the ground and is recorded by instruments. And here it becomes noticeable that the path he has traveled, that is, the length of his flight path, must correspond to a much longer duration of the time that he can actually exist. It turns out that moving chaotically in the atmosphere at a speed close to the speed of light, according to STR, the lifetime of a muon is slower. In this case, the muon’s own lifetime in its own reference frame remains the same, but in the reference frame of an earthly observer, the muon’s lifetime has changed and become longer.
But let's return to the theory of temporary acceleration. Why did time on earth begin to run faster? It is known that in order to slow down the passage of time you need to increase the speed, so to speed up time the speed must be reduced. Our planet had to reduce its speed. There needs to be a serious reason for this. And there is this reason.
American astrobiologists D. Brownlee and P. Ward came to the conclusion that the increase in temperature on planet earth is the result of solar activity, and it is due to the fact that our star is a young growing star. Expanding, the sun gradually engulfs our planet. This understanding is consistent with biblical prophecies, which say: “The fourth angel poured out his cup on the sun: and it was given to him to burn people with fire. And the intense heat burned the people, and they blasphemed the name of God.” (Rev. 16:8-9) It is also said: “The heavens will pass away with a noise (“Pass” is an old Slavic word meaning “will cease to exist”), and the elements, having flared up, will be destroyed, the earth, and all the works on it will be burned up.” (2 Pet. 3:10)
It is worth noting that mining production has reached fantastic numbers over the last century. Many billions of tons of oil, billions of tons of gas, coal and other minerals have been extracted and burned. They are destroyed forever, turned into energy that was wasted. If we take into account the oxygen burned and other factors, then huge numbers come up here too. The needs of humanity are growing, production continues and increases.
According to satellite imagery, massive melting and sliding of glaciers have already been noted, but the flooding of territories that should be associated with this does not occur; rather, on the contrary, the water disappears. Inland seas are drying up. As water vapor evaporates, it rises into the atmosphere, where it cools and falls back to earth in the form of precipitation. Probably, the supersaturated thermal masses, which always tend to rise upward, prevent normal cooling. In other words, we began to lose water, it goes into space. The total amount of material consumed by the planet has far exceeded trillions of tons. The mass of our planet has decreased by this amount.
According to the laws of gravity, any decrease in the planet's mass should affect its orbit. The attraction of the growing sun will act in increasing proportions to the two processes occurring. At the same time, the moon, the only natural satellite of the earth, will begin to gradually move away from us. The reason for this is the same laws of gravity. The fact that the moon is slowly moving away from us has already been noticed by astronomers. We are gradually losing it. Since its effect on the earth is extremely significant (high tides, low tides, etc.), a decrease in its influence due to its distance will lead to a number of natural disasters. A change in the earth's orbit and its gradual approach to the sun should cause an increase in average daily temperature and climate change. This is what is happening now. A phenomenon that is considered in the scientific world to be the “greenhouse effect.”
Several thousand tons of chlorofluorocarbon compounds are produced and used annually in the world. Once in the atmosphere, they are able to remain there for 60–80 years, migrating over the planet. It is known that one molecule of chlorine oxide destroys a thousand molecules of ozone. “Ozone holes” are formed. The ozone layer, like a blanket, protects our planet from the scorching sun, dangerous ultraviolet rays and solar radiation. The destruction of the ozone layer will also lead to an increase in the scorching effect of the sun.
The Bible says: “And there will be signs in the sun and the moon and the stars, and on the earth there will be despondency of the nations and bewilderment; and the sea will roar and be disturbed. People will die from fear and anticipation of the disasters coming to the world, for the powers of heaven will be shaken.” (Luke 21:25-26)
“Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look down on the earth: for the heavens will disappear like smoke, and the earth will wear out like clothing, and its inhabitants will also die.” (Isa. 51:6)
Year after year, revolution after revolution, our planet continues to change its orbit and gets closer to the sun. If you compare the solar system with a model of an atom, where electrons rotate at a certain distance from each other, around the nucleus, you can understand how the speed of the earth’s movement has decreased. Electrons that are closer to the nucleus spin slower than those that are further away from the nucleus. The closer a planet is to the sun, the slower it will rotate around it, slowed down by the more powerful gravitational field of the sun. As the speed decreases, time will speed up. It will just go faster. This does not mean that the day will become 23 or 22 hours. No. The smaller orbital trajectory is compensated by the lower rotation speed along this orbit. There are 24 hours left in the day, but they are no longer the 24 hours they used to be.
In each individual reference system, time flows differently, but it flows the same for an observer in this system. If 14.1 years passed on the spaceship, and 1000.1 years on earth, then the astronauts lived their 14 years quite normally, just as the earthlings lived their 1000 years quite normally. Being in different independent reference systems, they did not feel any difference in the run-up. Everyone lived their own time, the same seconds, days, weeks, etc. They lived according to the same standard of time - a measurement that uses a constantly uniform process, for example: the swing of a pendulum, the movement of a hand on a dial, etc. d.
The question arises: How then, in general, could one see and realize temporary acceleration?
Firstly: The change happened very quickly, in a short period of time - one human life. If this had lasted for 300–400 years, no one would have noticed anything.
Secondly: The change occurred within the same frame of reference - this is our planet.
Third: Change is still happening. Time continues to accelerate, and this acceleration is within the perception zone of our biological clock, which is forced to constantly adapt to the continuously changing regime of transience. The speed of the planet is now not constant; it continues to decrease. This year will pass faster than the last, and the next one faster than this one.
Every system tries to return to its normal state, that is, to balance, but the earth continues to reduce speed, increasing temporary acceleration. If the speed of the planet stops decreasing and becomes constant, the earth will take a certain orbit and the acceleration will stop. Time will go on as usual. In other words, the uniformity of the passage of time depends on the constancy of the speed. From this dependence it follows that time can not only be accelerated, but also slowed down if the speed constantly increases.
There is a speed limit at which time ceases to exist altogether. The limit at which time is zero. If we assume that even it can be stepped over, then we find ourselves where time has gone negative, i.e. into the past. But in this case, the speed should be equal to plus minus infinity, that is, it should be so enormous that it will be much less than zero. A speed that is so far ahead of time that it begins to catch up with it. At such speeds, no matter can exist.
According to calculations, when moving at the speed of light, the length of an object is so compressed that it becomes zero. No material body is capable of moving at such a speed. The speed of light is the speed limit for any material body.
All matter consists of molecules, molecules consist of atoms, atoms consist of nuclei and electrons, and in the end, all this division comes to the point that everything consists simply of positive and negative charges and even less, or rather nothing, from emptiness. However, all this emptiness, or vacuum, is nothing more than energy. The vacuum energy contained inside a simple light bulb is enough to completely destroy the earth. It is known from physics that the particles that make up any physical body move inside this body at speeds close to the speed of light. When we pick up any thing in our hand, we don’t even think about what movement is happening in it and how much energy there is in it.
The speed of light is the limit at which matter ceases to exist, turning into energy. When moving at the speed of light, any matter turns into light. The sun is a huge reactor where explosions of the greatest power occur. Sunlight is the mass of the sun thrown into space at a speed of 300,000 km/sec. Light is a stream of tiny charged energy quanta called photons. The elementary particles that make up any matter continuously move within its closed system at very high speeds close to the speed of light, but never reaching it. If any material body begins to move in space faster than the speed of the particles of which it consists, the system will “open up” and the body will “scatter” down to photons. When the speed of movement of a physical body exceeds the speed of movement of its own particles, a rupture of the closed system of this body occurs. This means that no matter can move faster than the speed of the particles of its components. Anything that starts moving at the speed of light turns into light.
Photons are the only particles that always move in space at the speed of light and do not have a rest mass. Photons at rest do not exist. The resulting photons can exist forever until they are absorbed by matter, that is, converted into material particles.
If two particles with opposite charges and equal masses, such as an electron and a positron, collide, they will both disappear in a bright flash of light. It is also known that light can turn into a particle: a photon can transform into an electron pair of an electron and a positron. When an atom transitions from one stationary state to another, one photon is emitted or absorbed, that is, light is released or absorbed.
In fact, it turns out that any matter is created from light, representing its lower energy level. Gold and iron are made of this light, as well as the bread that we eat. Everything is made of light. Energy constantly forms matter, and matter, being destroyed, gives birth to energy. This cycle in the Universe is constant. God created everything with His word: “He spoke and it became.” There have already been statements in the scientific world that matter is actually some kind of oscillatory waves similar to sound waves. By the way, the spectrum of light scattering can also be used to judge the sounds that come from matter. After all, they perform oscillatory movements that generate acoustic waves. But these same movements cause the play of reflected light. Therefore, the spectra of sound and light completely correspond to each other.
The energy reserves are unimaginable. From Albert Einstein's theory of relativity it follows that every kind of energy has mass, and that every matter, having mass, also represents energy. Expressing the relationship between mass and energy by the formula E=mc2, where energy is equal to mass times the speed of light squared, we find that 1 gram of matter contains 25,000,000 kilowatt hours of energy.
Matter is like a repository of energy that is stored there until a certain time, so that it can be extracted again, creating more and more new things. But since the energy of photons always significantly exceeds the energy of the molecules of matter from which they were formed, such cycles constantly increase the reserves of matter in the Universe. This means that if you split, for example, an ingot of gold, turning it into light, and then create an ingot from this light again, you will get not just one ingot, but much more. This is very reminiscent of the principle of sowing and reaping revealed by Christ. What is sown will not bear fruit unless it dies and ceases to exist. We won't get more unless we sacrifice less. Speaking in parables, Christ revealed many secrets of the Universe. He told his disciples: “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the Kingdom of God, but to others in parables.” (Luke 8:10) God is the Creator. This is his essence. He didn’t just create once and stop. No. He continues to create always and unceasingly. Astronomers have already established that the Universe is constantly expanding.
Returning to temporary acceleration, we can note that since time depends on speed and any material body already at the speed of light turns into light, that is, is practically destroyed, then only beings consisting of light itself can step over all these limits and exist where there is no time . It is noteworthy that the Bible describes angels as beings made of light.
If our planet stopped and stopped all movement altogether, then time on earth would be more fleeting than anywhere else in the Universe, but we would not realize it. Of course, this will not happen, but time will go faster and faster. This may be a second, deeper understanding of the meaning of the words of Jesus Christ. Predicting future events, He said: “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until now, nor will there be. And if those days had not been shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.” (Matthew 24:21-22) And the days will become fewer, and they will pass faster. The beginning of temporary acceleration is a signal that everything has already begun. The great time of trouble awaiting the earth is at hand.
Among all the civilizations of the Universe, created by God of creation, only one Earth has fallen and lives in sin. The first earthly civilization was destroyed for its sins by water, a global flood. “For the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” (Gen. 6:5) Our civilization will be destroyed by fire. But before this, so many disasters will fall on the earth and such a time of sorrow will come, which the earth has not yet known from its very creation. “But for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened,” says Christ.
The simplest example of space-time relativity is a picture of the starry sky. Looking at Jupiter, we see what happened 40 minutes ago. If you look at the closest star to us, Alpha Centauri, you will see what happened 4.3 years ago. The light from the star Sirius reaches us in 8.8 years, the light of Capella from the constellation Auriga takes 46 years, Canopus - almost 200. In the constellation Orion there is a star Rigel, its light reaches us only after 800 years. If you point your telescope at a small patch of fog a little higher than the average star of Andromeda, this means that we are seeing the light of a new star system in another galaxy. More precisely, what happened there 2.2 million years ago. Right now you see not the present, but the past, in its various temporal distances. The picture of the present is created from pictures of the past.
According to the theory of relativity, we are all in a curved four-dimensional space - time. Where time is the fourth dimension of reality. Any movement is now recognized as a displacement in time and space. The four-dimensional space of our Universe is curved. Every point in this space is both the beginning and the end. Having left any point in space and gone around the Universe, you can freely return to the same point. But since space is four-dimensional and the fourth quantity is time, then, having left a certain point in time and going around time, you can return to the same point in time from which you left. If we could move along the fourth dimension, then walls would not be a hindrance for us. We would be able to leave and enter enclosed spaces without going through doors and windows. The Bible says: “In the evening, when the doors of the house where His disciples were meeting were locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst and said to them: Peace be with you! They, confused and frightened, thought that they saw a spirit.” (John 20:19; Luke 24:37)
In 1943, at the height of the Second World War, A. Einstein participated in an experiment by the American Navy to create an undetectable ship. Using a powerful force field, scientists wanted to create a ship invisible to enemy radar. The destroyer Eldridge was specially equipped for the experiments. As a result, the ship became truly invisible, but then everything took an unpredictable turn, the destroyer disappeared. The ship moved in time and space. All this led to a series of very strange events, both with the ship and with the crew on it. Subsequently, this experiment was called the Philadelphia Experiment. At that time, Einstein was working on the unified field theory. This was supposed to be another breakthrough in physics.
Everything that was achieved was used primarily for military purposes. This was probably the reason why, shortly before his death, Einstein destroyed his last scientific works, writing in his diary that humanity is not ready to possess such knowledge and uses everything for evil.
Back in the mid-1930s, two Russian physicists proposed a theory that treated time as matter or energy. It turned out that time can be both absorbed and released by matter. Both scientists were repressed, and one was shot. The second physicist N.A. Kozyrev survived; while still in the camp, he continued to work on his theory. It is noteworthy that in the 1990s, a group of physicists from the Russian Academy of Sciences signed up to this discovery, officially recognizing it as valid and confirming it with a series of experiments. Now we can say that the possibility of the existence on earth of special zones with a changed course of time is quite real.
God said: “Call to Me and I will answer you, I will show you great and inaccessible things that you do not know.” (Jer. 33:3)
God is ready to reveal to us much more than we want to know. The Lord, who has no change or shadow of change, is the complete owner of time and space. Time is in his hands like clay, with which he is able to do whatever He pleases. The Creator is Incomprehensible, Unchangeable, Limitless, Infinite, Omnipresent, Omnipotent, Omniscient, Eternal... One of His names is Existing, which means existing always now. Just as any point in space is always “here” for God, so every moment of time is always “now” for Him.
Meister Eckhardt, who experienced a meeting with God in a vision, wrote: “The uniqueness of the Lord lies in the fact that God is exalted above space and time. He lives in the continuous “now” and in the “eternal now”, where the past, present and future are fused together. For God everything is instantaneous. When we mortals talk about the past, present or future, it is because we are subject to time and think in temporal concepts associated with it. But for the Lord time does not exist. This means that God will not hear my prayers tomorrow, just as he did not hear my prayers yesterday. No. He hears all my prayers right now, both yesterday and tomorrow.”
“And it shall come to pass, before they call, that I will answer; They will still speak, and I will already hear.” (Isa. 65:24)
About the Antichrist and the acceleration of time
Father, good afternoon!
I wanted to ask about one of the current topics on the Orthodox part of the Internet - the Antichrist. Now, I noticed, time has begun to go much faster, which means that the end of the world is near. Misunderstanding Americans think that the Lord will appear at the end of the World to destroy us, but this is not so. He only wants to save us from Satan, who will soon break free and get out of hell. So now I noticed one strange thing:
Previously, last year, I did a LOT of homework, we were asked so much and managed to do everything before 7 pm, but now they don’t ask much, I come home at half past three and do my homework, do it quickly, then turn around... Oops! It's already 6 o'clock! It's definitely time that goes by much faster! I wanted to ask about this - by whose will does time speed up or does it do so on its own? I just read somewhere that time was invented by Satan, in revenge on God, who invented eternity.
If the Antichrist comes, will there come an era of slavery of 3.5 years? They also say that he will force everyone to accept his mark. If there is a refusal, then there will be expulsion. I swore to God that if the Antichrist appears in my lifetime, then I will never give up his sign at any cost. Although this may be a bluff, I feel with all my soul that I can refuse the temptation sign. I would rather die in a waterless desert for the glory of God than enjoy the false pleasures of Satan. Am I on the right track?
Time will be shortened in the last times by the will of God, and the Lord created it. Yes, when the Antichrist comes, after the first half of his reign there will be slavery for those who accept his seal. Yes, you are on the right path, and to have a correct idea of the end times, read the Apocalypse. God bless you!
