Time does not pass for light
— light does not go through time.
It travels at the maximum speed in space
—the speed of light. So what is its speed in time?
Zero. That is, since its speed in space is the speed of light,
and the speed of light is the maximum speed,
its speed in time is zero.
Einstein was talking about physical light, but when we are experiencing the inner light, the actual luminosity of our True Nature, we begin to appreciate Einstein’s idea and have an actual experience that is analogous to it, instead of just a theoretical understanding of the idea. We begin to know what it means when we say that for light, time does not pass; that for light it is always the eternal now, and there is nothing but now.
So what we call present time is actually the intersection between what we call time and that timeless presence. The only place we touch True Nature is in the present moment, not in the past or the future. In the present moment is where True Nature intersects time, because it is the now
