The Now Is Not Moving, but Alive

A woman shares her contemplation of infinity as a cosmic pulsation, streaming out and returning, expanding and contracting. She describes feeling the dance of infinity, alive yet dimensionless. She adds that while she resonates deeply with infinity, eternity feels less alive for her, more intellectual. Rupert replies that she doesn’t need to resonate with every metaphor. Then he guides her to explore her experience of now. He asks how long the now lasts and how many moments have passed since they began speaking, and she admits she cannot count them. Rupert suggests that if now is not extended in time, it cannot be called a moment. The Now is not moving, but alive.
