PHILOCHRONY AND AWARENESS

Philochrony is the branch of philosophy that describes the nature of time and demonstrates its existence. Philochrony emerged on March 13, 2009. The main themes of Philochrony are: the becoming-duration duality, magnitive time, the parallelochron, the qualities of time, and the mathematical definition of time. On the other hand, awareness is the mental faculty of knowing things deeply, of knowing ourselves, and of differentiating between objective reality and ourself. Sensory knowledge is superficial. Even awareness is beyond rational knowledge. Awarness relies on intuition to penetrate the essence of beings. 

Philochrony is the awareness of time.

 Psychology is the awareness of mental health. 

Ethics is moral awareness.

 Law is the awareness of justice. 

Mathematics is the awareness of quantity, numbers, and their relationships.

Note:

Consider this idea: God is the Universal Awarness; He created us in His image and likeness. The Universe has awarness, God. Christ, Buddha, and Muhammad possessed Universal awarness to a primary degree. Moses and the Apostle Paul possessed it to a secondary degree. When we die, the body returns to the earth, and awarness returns to God. Some people and religions identify awarness as the soul.

WHAT IS PHILOSOPHY?

 WHAT IS PHILOSOPHY? 

Philosophy is the method that, starting from reflection (questions), yields an intuition of new knowledge. Philosophy is based on reasoning. The branches of Philosophy are: Logic and Gnoseology or Epistemology, which study knowledge; Metaphysics and Ontology, which study Being; Ethics, which studies moral values; Aesthetics, which studies beauty; History of Philosophy; and finally, Philochrony. Philochrony describes the nature of time and demonstrates its existence. Philochrony emerged on March 13, 2009. The main philosophers in history are: Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, René Descartes, Immanuel Kant, John Locke, David Hume, Friedrich Hegel, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, and Michel Foucault. The main currents of philosophy are idealism and materialism. Idealism can be objective (Plato) and subjective (George Berckely). Materialism can be mechanistic (Ludwig Feuerbach) and dialectical (Karl Marx). Philosophy originated in ancient Greece with the ideas of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle.

MATHEMATICAL DEFINITION OF TIME

Mathematics is an important tool in Physics. That is why time is defined as the physical magnitude that continually increases in value due to becoming and is used to measure the duration of things. In the calendar the days pass increasing the length of the year. In clocks the hours and minutes pass increasing the length of the days. Physicists apply mathematics to natural phenomena to explain reality or the universe. Becoming is the continuous succession of irreversible changes that go from the past to the future through the present. The becoming can be simple or periodic. With the passage of days and years we increase our age. Age is a simple becoming while in clocks we see a periodic becoming.

THE QUALITIES OF TIME (Edition)

Becoming, duration and periodicity These three qualities are inherent to time. Becoming is the continuous succession of irreversible changes that go from the past to the future through the present. We perceive becoming as a succession of moments. Duration is becoming delimited by a beginning and an end. Periodic phenomena are those that are always repeated in the same order and have the same duration. In short, time is the physical magnitude that continually increases in value due to becoming and is used to measure the duration of things. Natural periodic phenomena are the year (translation) and the day (rotation). Artificial periodic phenomena are the month, the week, the hour, the minute and the second. Clocks measures time by counting periodic phenomena. Time is not a dimension as Relativity suggests because we cannot point to the future or the past. Time is a state of things. Like new or old.

SOUND-TIME: ANALOGY

An analogy is the relation of similarity between two different things. Continuity is to duration what tone is to frequency in sound. These processes are objective. Continuity is the union between the points of a line without interruption between a beginning and an end. Continuity is also the occurrence without interruption of an event or phenomenon. Continuity tells us the magnitude of the duration, just as tone tells us the height of the frequency. Continuity is present in the three qualities of time: becoming, duration and units of measurement. In time there is continuity between the different moments of a phenomenon. If we perceive becoming, can we perceive continuity? Yeah. What we cannot perceive are two sequential moments as simultaneous.

THE TRUE NATURE OF TIME 2

THE QUALITIES OF TIME

 Time is the magnitude or physical quantity that continually increases in value due to becoming. In the sound-time analogy, sound is characterized by having 3 qualities: tone, intensity and timbre. Time also has 3 qualities: becoming, duration and units of measurement. Becoming is the continuous succession of irreversible changes that go from the past to the future through the present. Duration (Alpha and  Omega) is the interval between two sequential moments, one of which is the beginning and the other is the end. Units of measurement are periodic phenomena. Periodic phenomena are those that always repeat in the same order and have the same duration. These can be natural (year and day) and artificial (month, week, hour, minute and second). Of the 3 qualities of time, only becoming is perceptible. They are all objective because time does not require an observer to exist as Aristotle believed.
