A philosophical way to look at Time is that character and relation of all events and things with respect to which they are distinguished as simultaneous or successive, and as becoming , enduring,or passing away; that order of phenomena in general by reference to which all permanence and change are predicated,-usually conceived as a dimension of reality, distinguished from the spatial by the fact that the order of temporal succession is irreversible. The oldest conception of time is that of an absolute flowing, which is a reality apart from the events which fill it and has a fixed uniform rate in terms of which all change is measured. The classic expression of this conception of absolute time is in Newtons Principia. Kant conceived time as having no existence outside the mind and being but a subjective mode in which phenomena appear to us. More recent conceptions take time to be objectively real but emphasize the impossibility of any determination of time apart from the observable process of change in things, and hence, conceive time as relative or consisting in the relations of phenomena, not as absolute. The subjective feeling of duration, with its absolutely given present, is sometimes distinguished from the objectively determinable order in which durations are measured and any absolute present is indifferent, the former being called subjective time, the latter objective, mathematical or physical time. Astronomical time is time measured by reference to the mean apparent motion of the fixed stars. According to current conceptions of mathematical physics, the distinction between temporal and spatial order is not absolute, since all observation of events at a distance occurs not only in a different place from the event but also at a later time. The interval between the event and the observer is thus a space-time interval, and the manner in which the time dimension is separated from space dimensions depends upon the relative motion of the observed system and the observer. Thus for observers whose motion relative to the system observed is different, two events which are simultaneous for one may be successive for another. But if event A is later than event B for one observer, there can be no other observer from whom B will be later than A. Thus this conception retains the notion of time an an irreversible direction of change. : The basis of all health, sinlessness, and immortality is the great fact that the one most high is the only Mind. : Mind may be described as the sentient subject...of all feelings; that which has or feels them. : Of these self expressions of the substance, we mortals know only two. One is the material world, - Spinoza calls it body or bodily substance. The other is the inner world of thought, - Spinoza calls it thinking substance, or mind. : Mind is sometimes used as coextensive with an individual experience in its entirety, as in empirical psychology, for instance; at other times it is restricted to the subject that has the experience. : Books can never teach the use of books. : Usual Covenants in English Law are defined as follows: In conveyances, those covenants (called covenants for, or of, title) usually inserted in a deed conveying land to secure to the grantee the benefit of the title purported to be conveyed. They are: 1) The covenant of seizin (that the grantor is seized of the estate in questions); 2) the covenant that the grantor has a good right to convey; 3) the covenant for quiet enjoyment (that the grantees enjoyment of the conveyed estate shall not be interfered with by the grantor or by the lawful act of anyone claiming under him); 4) the covenant against encumbrances; 5) the covenant for further assurance (that the grantor will make such further conveyances as may be necessary to perfect the grantees title); and 6), in the United States, the covenant of warranty (which binds the covenantor to warrant and defend the title against anyone claiming under paramount title an interest in the estate conveyed). Of these the 1st covenant is sometimes omitted, and in the United States the 6th often replaces the 3d. In some States the 6th covenant is the only one commonly used. In the law of landlord and tenant, a covenant by the lessor for quiet enjoyment so far as concerns his own acts and those of persons claiming under or through him, and covenants by the lessee to pay rent, to pay taxes except those expressly payable by the lessor, to keep and deliver up the premises in repari, and to allow the lessor to enter and view the state of repair. : Time wasted is existence, used is life. : Matter is inert, senseless and lifeless. : Matter is another name for mortal mind; illusion; the opposite of Spirit; that of which immortal Mind takes no cognizance; that which mortal mind sees, feels, hears, tastes and smells only in belief. : Differences between a Serf, Slave and a Thrall. A Serf denotes, strictly, one who is attached to the soil and sold with it into the service of any and every purchaser; a Slave is the absolute property of his master and may be sold at will; Thrall is now chiefly poetical or elevated for slave. Slave and thrall are often used in figurative senses. : There is a slavery that no legislation can abolish, - the slavery of caste. : There are two different definitions for a freeman so you better be specific if you are going to define yourself as one because LAW is specific. One who enjoys liberty, or who is not subject to the will of another; one not a slave or vassal; also, one enjoying civil or political liberty. A member of a corporation, company or city, possessing certain privileges; a citizen of a borough, town or state; one having the freedom of a company or municipality. t: Finance is not that which causes business but is only the management of the value representations of the various goods and services that go to make up business. : Your liver is regarded as the seat of passion or desire. A white liver is traditionally the characteristic of a coward. : At common law...the contrast between free land and servile land resolves itself into a contrast between precarious occupation and proprietary right. : That which has the power, or not the power, to operate, is that alone which is or is not free. : There can be no friendship without confidence. : The reality of human nature is bound to elude us if we look only at a momentary cross section of it. : Differences between the words Emancipate and Enfranchise are as follows: Emancipate emphasizes the idea of release from bondage or restriction. Enfranchise is that of admission to new or wider privileges or liberties; as, the slaves were emancipated when freed from slavery and enfranchised when admitted to citizenship. : In the philosophy of the mind, subjective denotes what is to be referred to the thinking subject, the ego; objective, what belongs to the object of thought, the non ego. : At the outset, subjective and objective express plainly enough a relation between the act of perception and the object perceived. But soon some one understands by it the position of the single individual in relation to the entire mas of persons judging; and then the relation of the specifically human view of the world to the real nature of things; and finally, the relation of though to being in general....VSM
