The presence of the clock gave birth to the notion that time lies outside our bodies

that it can be tracked by a machine, and that we can sit and watch it "fly" by tick-tock as though it is something linear, containable, and separate from the organic, flowing process of life. The adherence to the clock for our sense of time and timing is noted as the greatest obstacle to allowing the full telepathic abilities of the human to flower.
there is a 6,000 year cycle in which Earth transits through each of the 12 signs of the zodiac for about 2152 years each. Each of these astrological ages represents one month of the grand, Cosmic Year. Sumerians, Tibetans, Egyptians, Cherokees, Hopi, and Mayans refer to this same 26,000 year cycle in their mystical belief systems and each have developed calendars based on this great cycle.

what's your point?
using the stars to track time,...using clocks to track time....using radioactive isotope half lives....it's all the same -
different methods to track time.

Time is real and does exist independently of our bodies.
If it wasn't real...then what do clocks measure?

If time doesn't really mean anything, then why would I get fired from my job for showing up late?

Time to me is very confusing, we have the time we go by, that we run things by, that humans and business goes by. But does it really exist? Is there something called time that's really moving? Wouldn't that mean that a future and past already exist? Or is everything static but not, in a way where there is no true future and past is instantly gone? Hmmm. I wish I knew better ways of explaining what's on my mind, I'm very stoned.

I heard that the first clock was invented by a Chinese emperor to schedule sex with all of the women in his harem.
The crops could be regulated by the sun and seasons, he needed a timer of some form to give each of them equal time in the day. That eventually evolved into a clock, giving equal segments to the day.
Time is relitive, just like reality. But even with it being a imperfect scale, our lives very much are dependant upon its regularity. Its chaotic, but in a infentestimaly small scale in our regards. So for all prectical means its accurate for all of us due to our point of referance being generally the same.
