Time and Consciousness (Penrose)

The way in which time is treated in modern physics is not essentially different from the way space is treated, and the 'time' of physical descriptions does not really flow at all. .... The temporal ordering that we appear to perceive is something that we impose on our perceptions to make sense of them in relation to the uniform forward time-progression of an external physical reality.


-- Roger Penrose, from The Emperor's New Mind: Concerning Computers, Minds, and the Laws of Physics.

One Taste of Tantra (Namkhai Norbu)

While Hinayana and Mahayana regard the absolute voidness as the object of realization to be attained by freeing oneself from bonds of impure relative dimension, the Tantras begin with the awareness of the voidness of all phenomena, and aim at re-integrating with the relative – working with the method of transformation. The relative is not renounced or rejected but used as the means of transformation itself, until dualism is overcome, and all phenomena can be said to be of “one taste,” pure from the beginning.


-- Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche, from The Crystal and the Way of Light
