THE ORDER OF TIME - INFORMATION: ABOUT THE ORDER OF TIME more.

Knowledge of the world is cyclic, that is to say, it depends on recurring conditions or circumstances. To have knowledge is thus conditioned or determined by circumstances. Although spiritual knowledge, metaphysical knowledge, to the contrary seems to be above matter, is that knowledge useless and void of meaning without the order and regularity of the moving world of matter; that knowledge exists as a necessary abstract and stable counterpart in opposition.
Writing a story, as with a book, a linear structure is created. First there is a preface written, next follows chapter one, etc. The knowledge presented in a book creates the impression that there would be a compelling order of appearance in which one thing would precede and constitute a prerequisite for what follows; the story knows a plot, a preconceived idea of cause and effect. The existence of a causal order thus is unmistakably true: first one makes love and next one sees a child born, first one sees lightning and then one hears the thunder, that suffers no doubt. But the child grows up and has a child itself, the clap of thunder rests till there is another bolt of lightning. The causality, the phenomenon that one thing gives rise to another thing, that one thing logically follows from another thing, is part of a cyclic order of repeating occurrences and that also is unmistakable; after a day there is a night and following the night there is the day, and arriving in the Far East is the West found in the east. And with that is another meaning found to the idea of causality. Although one thing follows the other one may wonder what would have caused what, what would be there first? Does the light lead to darkness or the darkness to the light? There is causality, but we're not as certain anymore as to what exactly would come first, God or devil, the impersonal or the personal, the science or the religion, man or ape, the

good or the evil, the chicken or the egg, etc.
In fact is it so that in a strictly linear universe in which there is nothing cyclic to be found, there is no causality at all, nothing is generated there, nothing is caused, With linear time only, we would still be the separate atoms of the big bang that never ending thin and spread out into space in an ever expanding universe... Causality thus is evidently linked, if not equal to, a cyclic order in which things give rise to each other: hydrogen and oxygen combined give water, and so, from one chemical reaction to the other, is a complexity generated in which we next find ourselves back as created, or conditioned, beings depending on circumstances.

But from what did we originate then? We, a Lord in the game included, caused each other in a causal order fundamental to our society and a linear order that puts everything to an end again in dissipation so that there is room for the new: dust thou art and to dust thou shall return... In that initial attraction for one another because of which life is generated and creation takes place, and afterwards there is also the repelling or destruction, is there thus as well a cyclic as a linear aspect to the movement of matter we describe as the operation of the time factor. In fact it concerns two effects of the operation of time which are there as fundamental forces of nature: the expanding and the contracting force; the centrifugal en de centripetal force of cyclic and linear time. The expansion so is there as an effect of linear time, and the contraction as a phenomenon of the cyclic of time. The two balance each other out and thus give the reality of a relatively stable universe, planetary system or galaxy. With the cyclic of time we find the certainty and security of life created on a planet. With the linear of time we find the freedom, to break with conditionings, as also the unique of the ever recurring moment so that we may appreciate life as an adventure, even though inevitably death and destruction will follow.

This site is about the time that is not only linear, liberates, gives the unique, and leads to destruction again. This site is also about the time that creates, offers security, knows cause and effect, has meaning and motivates. There is still more. This site is even about the time that knows itself, has consciousness, is eternal and maintains individual living beings as souls, or no, even maintains entire cultures. It is about the time of our experiencing, of our equilibrium, of our confidence, our love, our belief and our hope; the time that is the timeless experience of time, the poetry, the music, the imagination, symbol, metaphor and wonder. The time linear and the time cyclic we may oversee, we can compare, measure and divide, but the experience of time, the experience above it which is ethereal, which is of a mysterious, unifying and fundamental element as the ether, we are ourselves or rather not again also; it is the paradox of a time that is not the time anymore, of a time that is also a space, a time that is also a consciousness, a time that is more than itself. It is an ideal of equipoise, transcendental knowledge, might and happiness we address with the word God, with which we apart from the political-scientific linear also cyclic may be spiritual in self-realization.

With the threefold division of time experienced linear, cyclic and ethereal, are we confronted with problems we'll also discuss. The humaneness makes itself known in personal preferences: the political sees the time, scientific and pragmatically reductionistic, preferably as linear. Science itself, more impartial, prefers to look at time at the one hand as lawfully conditioning and determining while at the other hand considering time as relative and dependent. The religion, then again not so political with the science, talks rather, at the one hand being of order and regularity, at the other hand along with the spiritual about the ether and the 'timeless' experiencing of the time in God-consciousness and self-realization. These systems of human envisioning, these philosophies or paradigms of politics, science, spirituality and the so very personal religion are easily at odds with one another. This incapacity to oversee the complete of methods. facts and analyses at the one hand and the spirituality, science of the person and the politics at the other hand, this lack of love for knowledge, drives man to desperation and the planet to the brink of destruction. This leaning towards the simplicity of preferring a limited philosophy of time, constitutes the problem, gives violent emotions and causes social estrangement, soul-lessness, or estrangement from the self of logic, reason and principle, and mutual destruction in warfare or internal destruction in mental illness.

What this writing aims at is to retrieve the love for the knowledge that was lost in 'modern time'. That love is in short to the greek tradition, also baptized filognosy (from filo or love and gnosis or knowledge). Filognosy aims, considering the before mentioned, at the unification in the love for the knowledge of science, spirituality and the respect for the person, religious or not, and his ethereal connectedness, in such a manner that each and everyone - without being estranged - is capable of having a full life with it, so that it is something concrete to us. For it is because of the one-sided and mutually estranged opinions about time that we've denied each other our lives and therewith have disqualified ourselves as societies. The purpose is to make the progress real, or real-ize us, in such a way that we with each other, and thus with ourselves on a world scale as societies, have a life again in a non-repressive manner. Non-repressive progress, a form of progress that doesn't go at the cost of others or of previous cultures, is what this site is envisioning, for only that way will there be a perspective for a world culture of respect for all human identities.

This and that so implies that we'll not directly be simplifying matters. Counting with others happens to be a complex matter. Thus wel have a big site with methodical expositions and scientific tables, spiritual and analytical discourses and religiously colored, personal and political accounts. As said, must the order of presentation of these three sections be taken relative. On the internet is the knowledge, being presented as a site, more easily considered cyclic with a circular interface. Thus is the free choice of taking up this matter clearer. With the same subject in the form of a book though one may read this tree of knowledge with its branches to all sides thus from section two to section three, to end with section one as the conclusion; or differently, starting with the last section end with the second one or simply read from the beginning to the end in neatly following the suggested causal order. It may be clear that we're not saying here that, despite of the indeed existing causality, science would find its fulfillment in religion or that, with another idea of causation, spirituality would be the end-result. We not only stress here the cyclic relativizing of linear consciousness, but also the integration in the ether of the spiritual of each and all in a well integrated scientifically founded democratic society of religious norms and standards, but then without the estrangement, the airiness and the cultism.

Part I

A Method. To imbed this island of realization in the internet is there next to a general info-section with considerations on the way to proceed, a cyber-section with a humanities -directory and other more specific linkpages and a chatroom that together have grown out of linking to all relevant sites concerning the subject and other sites that felt themselves at their place here.
B Facts. For the science department there are three tables for the sun, the moon and an alternative calendar called the cakra-calendar that divides the solar year the way the moon divides the lunar year. There is also a selection of articles from the diverse timesciences,articles about time-oddities and a designs-page. Next to the pages on the order of the time of the moon, de sun and the galaxy is added is a basic concept of philosophy putting all this science of time in a meaningful perspective.

Part II

A Analysis. As an extra to counterbalance all this rationality there is an art-department offering analytical insight in the structure, the operation and the emotional experience of filognosy.
B Spirituality. For the spiritual department there is a free on-line basic e-book called The Other Rules and articles, a guide and instruction-pages on more specific subjects that together describe the more general aspects of relating a more natural and spiritually healthy way to the system of standard time.

Part III

A Personal. The personal department gives room to the emotional and religious aspects of time-consciousness. There is room here for the story of the author; how did we arrive at these insights and this responisbility? And what authority does that responsibility follow? What texts are we involved in precisely? What is the meaning of identity and participation?
B Politics. For the political department there is a manifesto describing how societies did function and should function concerning matters of human values, employment, authority, representation, economy, the digital age and timemanagement to name a few subjects spoken of in this treatise. Next to this manifesto there are articles on the concept of time and a new world order, the year-count, cynicism, elections, dualism and how to hearten posterity with the internet.

This is the basic set-up of this site.

Further in detail :

At the different departments there are serveral free accessible on-line e-books collected which add to the purpose of the Order of Time in promoting integral publishing of e-books without prior commercial control. The idea is that essential knowledge may not be obstructed by commercial conditioning and possessiveness. Still from this .com site one may expect to be able to buy this info also in print because of the less digitized part of society. But the priority lies with digitization.

The basic confession of the whole approach is the apollonian sober sense of truth and soul as is most clearly explained in the charter of order (as opposed to the hedonistic, dyonisian principle - although there is also room for intergating the two, see fields-table).

It can be said that the Order of Time constitutes a concept of societal order that is progressive, that is to say, it represents the fundamental knowledge and rules of present-day society and offers as well a clear vision of its next phase in evolution and emancipation. This concept is derived from the lore of vedic wisdom spread in the western world in the second half of the twentieth century. It can be considered an adaptation in western terms of the oldest of human culture fixed in Sanskrit, for which the new term filognosy (love for knowledge) is introduced. To this the emphasis lies on the (scientific, political and spiritual) sacrificing of the impersonal nature of God. The sacrifice of a good system will do justice to the interest of the person just as the other way around a good person sacrificing will do justice to a righteous system. To the personal interest the vedic scriptures are respected of which several unique translations can be found at this site. Factually this, together with the political option mentioned above, amounts to an alternative calendar and clock that are in better respect with the 'complete whole' of time and its diversity of religious and cultural preferences of the world. This concept is not meant as a repression of the existing roman calendar and its standard-time. It is to be understood as complementary to the existing system offering a new concept of time-consciousness in an, as said, more natural and relaxed tempo of life and an unprecedented freedom of choice in time-management. Therefore basically to the Order of Time there is no single political or subcultural confession although there is a clear but holistic confession to the vedic foundation of knowledge.

Concerning the subject of time specifically one finds here the proposal of a calendarscheme and timescale that provides for a uniform 24-division of matching days with dates, uncovering a harmonious (rational, parsimonious and less psychologically complicated) concept of time. For its practical mangement next to the tables under science there is a design for a simplified (not the planets) version of the classical astrarium (a clock indicating the relative positions of the earth, the sun, the moon and the stars) to figure as the paradigm , common denominator or model of thought to control and master the diversity of cultural timerespect of our present age. To this innovation of time-respect the name aquarian is used as well as the sanskrit root cakra-- (meaning: celestial sky from wheel or disc), also denoted as cosmic. In sum this alternative concept of time-consciousness of the Order of Time enriches the existing culture with a second mind of order for settling not only times and days of festivity, study, socializing, doing business, being privately active and media-arrest in control over standardtime realities, but also for settling a new age of real progress of world-order.
