The extracts from the book titled: The User Guide To Life: Bring Your Mental Self Back Home The real present or here and now is actually the border between the immediate past, and the immediate future, which never stands still for a moment. The actual present doesn’t tick along or stop for you like a ticking clock. Here and now sweeps along in a constant mode exactly like the second hand on a clock. That is the real character of the actual present. Here and now has very limited space just like the second hand on a clock; the rest is the area which belongs to past and future. If you look at the face of the clock, you can clearly see that past and future cover the area before and after the second hand, an area which covers almost the whole face of the clock apart from that tiny space where the continuously moving second hand is. Past and future also share the same characteristic of being non-existent or not real because the past has gone, done and dusted, whereas the future hasn’t arrived. There is no real substance in them. The real existence is only here and now, which is also constantly moving. Training our mental self with the breathing and movements is the same thing as being with here and now. https://youtube/watch?v=6o1tZHtUuL4
