The Present Moment Is Not What You Think

विवरण

Time is experienced as a sequence of change, but the mind is capable of directing its attention beyond the immediate moment. It can revisit the past, imagine the future, or focus on the present. Attention is the concentration of consciousness on a particular object, thought, or moment. In that sense, the present moment may be understood as the portion of reality to which attention is currently directed. When we focus our attention on a segment of the ongoing sequence of time, that segment becomes our lived experience of the present.
