DURATION AND WAITING

You can not perceive time intervals, it is necessary that each one visualize the TAO (total activity occurred in a given period) through chromnesia. The visualization of the TAO allows us to organize and arrange properly our personal activities. Doing this time does not finish to us neither is remained. 

In another sense, the waiting is the logical equivalent of duration. The duration is the definite permanence of things and their changes in reality. The indefinite duration is eternity. Waiting is the mental attitude to the possibility of the occurrence of an event in the immediate or mediate future. Time is the magnitude of duration and waiting. The watch measures both the duration and waiting.

THE TRUE TIME ARROW

Entropy is taken as the classic arrow of time.

ENTROPY
--------------------------------->
hot .......... heat .......... cold body
body

In the true arrow of time (TAT) the future changes to the past passing through the present. This is the temporary change. The past, in some moment, was future.

The philochron line is the TAT.

CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE PHILOCHRONY TO THE KNOWLEDGE

1- The Theory of inexorability:

Time is inexorable or absolute in the sense that the succession of moments is continuous and irreversible.

2-  The becoming-duration Duality (the philochron causality):

Time is an example of the primary form of the causality law. The identity of time, becoming (cause), produces the duration (effect).

3- The philochron line (temporary straight line):

The temporary straight line or philochron line is continuously making itself for sequential instants. The present moves away (becoming) continuously with respect to a reference moment (RM) in the past (duration).

4- The concept of chromnesia:

Using the sense of chromnesia we perceive the sequential intervals.

TIME AND MOVEMENT

The movement is the change of position experienced by a body with respect to a reference point (way). Time is the dimension or framework that allows us to: a) establish a past, a present (now) and a future, b) sort the events sequentially. The past exists no longer, but has been registered and measured; two of the pillars of Science.

THE PHILOCHRON CONSENSUS

I have abandoned the idea of the intangibility of time. Now I think time is objective because we perceive intervals sequentially. The sense of time is the chromnesia (from Greek khronos = time and mnesis = memory).
  
Time, in any frame of reference, is inexorable or absolute in the sense that the succession of moments is continuous and irreversible. Time is unstoppable and unrepeatable. Time is also relative if we consider the speed in what a body or a particle moves.

The OAT (objective abstract time) changes to OFT (objective flowing time).

DIVERSE OPINIONS ABOUT TIME

Time is a physical magnitude that affects all reality, but we do not have a specific sense to perceive intervals. This makes each person makes a different idea about the nature of time. There is no consensus about what time is.

1- Heraclitus of Ephesus (philosopher): becoming flows like a river, is the Being.
2- Parmenides (philosopher): no changes, no time.
3- Isaac Newton (physicist) time is real and absolute.
4- Immanuel Kant (philosopher): time is an a priori form.
5- Albert Einstein (physicist): Time is an illusion and relative.
6- Henri Bergson (philosopher): rejected the mathematical time.
7- Martin Heidegger (philosopher): time is the being-there or dasein, time is temporary.
8- Julian Barbour (physicist): time does not exist.
9- Paul Davies (physicist): defends the unidirectionality or arrow of time.
10- José Ignacio Latorre (physicist): time is a parameter that connects two movements.
11- Lee Smolin (physicist): time is real.
12- Bradford Skow (philosopher): past, present and future coexist in the universe.
13- David Eagleman (neurobiologist): time is invented by the brain.

Summary of these opinions:

1. It is objective (real)
2. It is subjective (ilussion)
3. It is subjective (a priori)
4. It is the becoming-duration duality (real)
