POSTULATES OF THE PHILOCHRONY

POSTULATES OF THE PHILOCHRONY

First: In time there is only one frame of reference. 

Duration is measured with respect a moment in the past.
All observers are in the present. There is no observer in
the past or in the future who has a different measure.

Second: Speed affects clocks, not time.

A change in time is, for example, 10 seconds in the past or
10 seconds into the future. Clocks of the GPS are always in the present.

Third: The speed doesn't affect length.

The speed affects the perception of the relative observer.

THE MAGNITIVE: THE NATURE OF TIME

THE MAGNITIVE: THE NATURE OF TIME

What is magnitive refers to the property of beings that is imperceptible, but measurable. What is magnitive is objective, but not concrete; for example in Physics: force, gravity and time. We feel weight, but not gravity.

Magnitive (created by Sibilia) is a modification of the word magnitude.


Being magnitive is the ineffable quality of time: objective, imperceptible and measurable (thought mathematically).

WHAT IS THE FUTURE?

WHAT IS THE FUTURE?

The future is the set of events that have not happened. These events may be possible (the tomorrow day) and fortuitous (a car accident). The future can be close (hours, days) and far (years, decades).
----------------------------------------------
At the age of 15 I felt that Time was walking.

At 35 I felt Time was running.

Now with 53 I feel that Time flies.

NATURE OF TIME

NATURE OF TIME

Time is the duration of things subject to change.

Time is perceived as a continuous sequence of irreversible moments.

Time is measured by counting sequential intervals of equal duration.

The Chromnesia is the registry of the passage of time in the brain. History, Chronology 
and Philochrony are part of the Chromnesia.

THE PUZZLE OF TIME

THE PUZZLE OF TIME

Time is the variable that ACTUATES continuously causing:
a) aging,
b) the deterioration of things,
c) the succession of events and
d) the duration of things

- The measure of time is a mathematical entity
- We perceive changes
- We do not perceive the time intervals
- The units of time are intelligible
- At 65 years old I have only changed my appearance: child, adolescent, adult and elderly.
- The past are memories and the future expectations

TIME IS NOT AN ILLUSION

TIME IS NOT AN ILLUSION

The horizon is the visual limit of the earth's surface, where the sky and the earth seem to gather together. In a reflexive approach, we realize that time is part of a trilogy: becoming-duration-time. Becoming is the continuous succession of unrepeatable changes (becoming flows). The duration is the relation between two sequential moments. Time is the variable that increases continuously (time is mathematical). When we think that time is an illusion we do not differentiate between this one, becoming and duration, We see time as an invisible river that drags us all.

PS: The concept of duality becoming-duration (time) changes to the becoming-duration-time Trilogy.
 

PHILOCHRON CLASSIFICATION OF BEINGS

PHILOCHRON CLASSIFICATION OF BEINGS

According to their duration, things are classified in: Eternal, enduring, perishable, ephemeral, fleeting and non-existent.

A) Eternal things have no beginning or end; Like space. For believers, God and Paradise are eternal.

B) Lasting things last a long time. They are divided into:

- Centenarians, if they last from 100 to 999 years. For example the spruce tree and the saguaro cactus.

- Millennials, from 1000 to 999,000 years. The redwood trees.

- Millionaire, more than a million years. The geological eras, the life of the planets and the stars.

C) Perishable things are short-lived; They last from one day to 99 years. The life of the human being.

D) Ephemeral things are short-lived, some hours.

E) The fleeting things are of very short duration, some seconds or fractions of second. The flicker, the heart rate.

F) Non-existence is lack of existence, without duration. Planet X between Mars and Jupiter. All things have existence and essence.
