Is The Time Real?

Is The Time Real?

My colleague asked and talked to me in our workplace today
We worked together, and he just asked me about my opinion
My meaning of time. He is a young man, a student in London

So intelligent, positive person, his parents are from Bangladesh
He asked me about the present. “Do you think the present exists?”
“No, I don’t think so”, I replied. “Because the present is a moment.”

“A moment, what is passing away in every moment. So, it is not real.
The moment has no time extension, so it does not exist”, I said to him.
He explained many things about the past, present, and future. Intelligence

Yes, this young man is a real intellectual. Professor. I wish him a successful career
In his life. Oh, and he took one more question. Do you think the future is fixed?
I said, I don’t think so, because that is a very unstable thing. So, not fixed

I needed to explain something. I heard this from a theologian in Hungary
He was my religion teacher in Budapest. He was old. Joseph. I hope he is still alive
I couldn’t explain because there was a lot to do. So, Joseph said

Imagine a triangle. The top vertex of the triangle is God. The horizontal side
of the triangle is human life. You live there. You walk there. In front of you, people
Behind you, people. You are blind, because from the people you can’t see
the left way, and the new way. Old way, new way. Past, future. But the God
God, from the top, from the top vertex of the triangle, can see everything
At the same time. So, past, present, and future can exist in the same time. In a moment
In a moment, what is infinitely expanded.

My friend, my colleague, said it too
Time and space are concentrated into a point
And everything comes from there
And he was talking about Einstein

I think he is right
That is the vertex of the triangle


I come from a different culture 
He also from another country 

And our opinions
And worldview

From God
The same
