Everything is Here & Now
Why this, why now?
You may have heard sayings such as “Live in the moment”, or “Live in the now.” You may have also heard the term Mindfulness and read books or taken workshops on being Mindful. It may seem these subjects have been thoroughly explored and described.
So, when we say here in P5 – Everything is Here and Now, what do we really mean?
Why is this concept important enough to warrant its own Pillar?
Is all this just New Age talk or is there something here that can make a difference in daily life?
Time is an illusion…
Time is the BYPRODUCT of shifting through alternative realities billions of times per second. It is a byproduct of our perceived existence in this space/time reality.
‘Time’ doesn’t create the shifting
– it’s the ‘shifting’ that creates the time.
But truly, EVERYTHING is here and now.
- What we perceive as the past is done.
- What we perceive as the future is yet to be.
The ONLY place we can experience and create is in the present.
The PERCEPTION of time is the best we can understand things in this 3D reality. Even though things seem to have a past present and future, it’s all happening now.
Assembling your film reel…
Imagine a roll of 35mm film...
All the frames EXIST at the same time but by viewing them in sequence, the ILLUSION of motion and of TIME is created.
In the film reel, the frames have been prearranged in a certain order, but in waking reality, we draw from an INFINITE number of possible frames and arrange them in a particular sequence using our consciousness and what we focus upon.
Our consciousness is like a FILM EDITOR, selecting and splicing together the frames that create the filmstrip of our daily experience.
Just like a movie with alternate endings or a video game with alternate plot progressions, the future is not set and is INDETERMINATE.
There are multiple paths you can go down, OR you can keep REPEATING the same one. The choice is yours.
What you do in the NOW is what selects those frames and your FUTURE.
The elasticity of time…
The passing of time is not constant, and the perception of time is SUBJECTIVE and changeable.
Some examples…
For example, can you recall being someplace you DIDN’T want to BE, doing something you DIDN’T want to DO and felt that time was DRAGGING?
Minutes passed like hours. The hands on the clock (remember when all clocks had hands) barely seemed to move.
Here are some other examples to consider…
- Do you remember as a KID feeling summers lasted forever but as an ADULT, summers seem to fly by?
- Have you ever been ENGROSSED in something that completely captivated your attention and time flew quickly? Perhaps you were just having fun, were reading a good book, absorbed in a project that consumed your awareness, then realized several hours had passed.
- Have you ever been wildly in love with another and felt those first DAYS together contained WEEKS worth of experiences, with everything being vivid, fast moving, and alive when together and so empty and dragging on forever when apart?
- Have you ever spent time with close friends wrapped up in the moment then realized MANY hours had passed? Suddenly it was Last Call or dawn was breaking but it SEEMED only a few hours had elapsed?
- Have you ever experienced a traumatic situation, like a car accident where events progressed in SLOW MOTION, allowing you time to absorb very nuance and detail?
- Have you ever felt you were in your own space/time BUBBLE, watching the world pass by like watching a movie, but not feeling a part of the movie or the world?
- Has time ever STOPPED after hearing shocking news, perhaps a dire medical diagnosis or news of a serious accident or passing of a loved one?
- Have you ever lost consciousness then woken up hours later and felt the LOSS OF TIME between when you winked out and woke up?
- WHERE did that time go? Was it ever there?
- Does time pass differently when asleep than when awake?
- Does it seem linear, or does it skip and jump like dragging the scroll bar when watching a video?
- Have you noticed as you’ve grown older time has SPED UP? Suddenly the day is over, the week is over, the month is over.
- You look back and years have passed. Was it THAT long ago you took that trip, attended that school, worked at that company?
- Where did the time go? Can you really have children who have kids of their own when you still FEEL in your 30s?
Why does time seem so elastic and what is the significance and value of this phenomenon?
Does it matter what the clock says, or how many months or years have passed, or is our perception of time all that matters?
If the perception of time is so variable, how do we adapt to receive greatest benefit?
Drifting to the past or future…
- Do you ever drift BACK to something in the past that upset you and REPLAY events imagining what you might have done and said DIFFERENTLY?
- Do you ever drift BACK to Glory Days when you had great times and linger there, RETELLING stories and SAVOURING feelings of being so strong, so fearless, alive, and free?
- Do you ever spend time WORRYING about the future and everything you fear MIGHT go wrong and how awful that would feel?
- Do you ever drift FORWARD to some future event, IMAGINING what it might be like and VISUALIZING how you’d LIKE it to play out?
Focusing deliberately on the past…
Q: Is it HELPFUL to focus deliberately on the past?
A: It depends on how it makes you FEEL.
If you focus on the things that DEPRESS you, then you bring those dis-empowering feelings into your present experience.
If you focus on the things that UPLIFT you, you bring those POSITIVE feelings into your present experience.
The past is gone… or is it?
The past IS gone… UNTIL you RECALL it and bring it back into the present again. The feelings you had THEN are REACTIVATED in the NOW.
Now that you have retrieved and reactivated the past, how do does it make you feel?
- Does your recollection of the past uplift of depress?
- Does it empower or dis-empower?
- Do you appreciate and celebrate the portion of the past you reactivated, or do you just moan and complain?
- Are you ADDICTED to retelling sob stories, as if you were pulling the filling out of a healthy tooth and sticking your tongue back in the cavity just to feel the pain again?
- Are you addicted to being a VICTIM and the attention and pity it garners?
WHY? In what way does this serve you?
Reframing the past...
Changing the past by reframing it
in the present…
You can CHANGE the past by changing the way you THINK and FEEL about it.
You can re-frame the MEANING of events to make them more POSITIVE.
You can choose to APPRECIATE all the GOOD aspects; acknowledge all the ways they SERVED you, and HELPED make you who you are today.
What if in RE-FRAMING those events, they now MEANT something different that was more HELPFUL, UPLIFTING, and felt better?
The intentions of others you IMAGINED were personal and meant to hurt you…
- Maybe there’s ANOTHER way to see it?
- Maybe you read MORE into it than was there?
- Maybe there’s a way to SOFTEN it and see it in a more POSITIVE light?
- Maybe you projected some of your OWN unresolved issues onto THEM?
- Maybe they ACTIVATED something hidden and UNHEALED in you?
- Maybe now that they helped REVEAL it, you can HEAL it and move forward?
- Maybe NOW’S the time to heal and to GROW?
- Maybe what happened WAS for your highest good?
- Maybe it WAS time to move on from that stale relationship or that unsatisfying job?
- Maybe that health scare, or diagnosis, WAS what was needed to REASSESS your priorities?
Changing how you THINK about the PAST, changes it for the PRESENT and for the FUTURE and even for your MEMORIES of the past.

Only the Present matters…
Since the present is the only time that EXISTS, it is the only experience that you can INFLUENCE and is where ALL your POWER lies.
Many people anchor their focus in the PAST, reliving glory days or regretting past choices and actions, but from your present perspective, the past is HISTORY and past EVENTS cannot be changed.
Others spend their time largely focused on the FUTURE and what’s next, ignoring what’s around them NOW, but the future has not yet happened and so is BEYOND their reach.
Spending too much time in EITHER the past or the future is MISGUIDED because the only time you CAN create in is the PRESENT.
It’s fine to spend SOME time appreciating the past, or envisioning the future, but the only time you HAVE is right NOW, in the present; not “one day, or some day,” but RIGHT NOW.
Your point of great POWER is in the PRESENT… in this red-hot moment that you are experiencing right NOW as you are reading these pages.
Change the present changes the past…
The past is SUBJECTIVE.
You create your recollections of the past from your present.
Ask five people their memory of a shared event and
you’ll get five DIFFERENT stories.
Since everything is now, your past doesn’t truly EXIST, it’s just a backstory you tell yourself to explain how you got here.
Change some aspect of YOURSELF in the present, and you change your VERSION of the past that you create, remember and project forward to yourself.
Everything of real value IS here & now…
- Your ability to FEEL is Here & Now
- Your ability to THINK and FOCUS is Here & Now
- Your ability to ACT and CREATE is Here & Now
- Your ability to CARE and LOVE is Here & Now
- Your ability to SHARE and CONTRIBUTE is Here & Now
- Your ability to CONNECT and AFFECT is Here & Now
- Your ability to EXPAND & GROW is Here & Now
- Your ability to APPRECIATE and TAKE PLEASURE is Here & Now
- Your ability to LAUGH and BE SILLY is Here & Now
- Your ability to HAVE FUN and BE JOYFUL is Here & Now
- Your ability to IMAGINE, DREAM and VISION the future is Here & Now
- Your ability to BE FREE is Here & Now
- Your ability to RE-FRAME is Here & Now
- Your ability to REINTERPRET and EXTRACT MEANING from the past is Here & Now
- Your ability to BE COMPLETELY PRESENT in the moment is Here & Now
- Your ability to LIVE LIFE FULLY is Here & Now.
FEEL the future you desire to help create it,
but do not concern yourself with the DETAILS of how it may come to pass.
ALLOW it to unfold in the most magical way...
Focus deliberately on what you prefer…
The future holds infinite quantum potentials…
The future is a conceptual PLAYGROUND of all possible timelines, all alternate possible versions of potential future nows.
ENVISION possible futures, gauge how they feel, then FOCUS on the versions of the future that FEEL best and you prefer.
Rather than…
- …fear the future or play out worst case scenarios ...OR…
- …hope for the best and prepare for the worst
WHAT IF…
you deliberately took
a leap of faith and imagined,
designed, and viscerally FELT
the most ideal version of the future
you can envision, and then IMMERSED yourself
in how GOOD and delicious that version of
your future would FEEL?
- Why not savour, milk, decree, and DEMAND it?
- Why not FEEL it as strongly as when it occurs?
- Why not deliberately create THAT future, NOW, in the present?
THEN, let the cooperative components FIND each other and COALESCE into your reality.
The more you practise, the easier it becomes…
Past Lives / Future Lives…
As stated in P2, you CHOSE the specifics of your present incarnation, and of your many other incarnations.
These are often referred to as Past Lives because their time perspective predates what APPEARS to be your present incarnation. However, since they can be set in a future era (a future life), as well as a past era, they are more accurately called PARALLEL incarnations.
This means you have other incarnations as other personalities, genders, races, in other eras and time periods.
These are part of the TOTALITY of who you are and can be glimpsed and accessed to the degree appropriate and desired.
Parallel incarnations…
There are many different facets to the individual. Your current physical human expression is but one.
While some of you is here in your physical body, other parts of your consciousness are elsewhere, including a large portion which remains nonphysical.
Your present physical personality expression is NOT the only one that you have designed. You are having, MULTIPLE physical personality expression experiences SIMULTANEOUSLY in a multitude of identities and settings and circumstances. These may even include different life forms on other planets.
It is as if you have cast yourself in the LEAD ROLE of a multitude of plays all taking place at the same time in different settings with different props and probable story lines, each of which was designed by you with the expectation that each one would provide the types of experiences you most desired to have for your discovery, growth, and entertainment.
Incarnation bleed-through…
Since incarnations are not sequential, but rather simultaneous, there can be BLEED-THROUGH or CROSS-TALK from one incarnation channel / frequency to another.
While these experiences are for the most part walled off from each other to preserve the fidelity of each experience, there can be periodic glimpses of experiences from the other incarnations during dreams, spontaneous remembrances, and what is termed “past life regressions.”
These glimpses can provide useful insights into some aspect of the alternate life’s personality or perspective, that could be relevant and beneficial to you in your present incarnation.
They may help you see your circumstances DIFFERENTLY, and enable you to envision and sense POSSIBILITIES in your present incarnation in a way that can be empowering, enlightening, and inspiring for helping you move forward in your present life.
Informing yourself from parallel selves…
Imagine being able to access the attributes and knowledge you desire from your parallel selves.
Imagine, if you were lacking confidence, being able to tap into SUPREME CONFIDENCE from another version of you that possessed such confidence?
Or tapping into certain self worth, laser-sharp clarity, wisdom, sharpness of mind, courage, and strong clear voice to speak your truth, to say what you want to say, to be articulate, powerful, and impactful?
What if...
…you were to access more understanding, empathy, tolerance, and COMPASSION for others?
…you were to access more PATIENCE to nurture and teach others at their own rate?
…in response to your craving to better UNDERSTAND the workings of the Universe and the meaning of your life, you received hints of how to FIND those answers for yourself?
Why not tune in...
Since these programs are playing on other channels…
…why not deliberately TUNE IN and EXTRACT from them what would be useful to you, right here, right now?
Shouldn’t this also be possible given that
EVERYTHING is NOW?
Informing yourself from the future…
You have probably heard of the idea of writing a letter to your younger self.
Maybe IF you knew THEN what you know NOW, life could have been so much EASIER.
This presupposes your younger self would TAKE advice from their older self, which is a big IF given the know-it-all, confidence of youth. It’s also been said…
…there’s no use answering questions that aren’t being asked,
and
it’s no use offering advice that isn’t being requested.
There’s a word for unwanted help or un-requested advice… INTERFERENCE.
But imagine reaching a state of maturity where you WERE asking questions, and DID want advice from someone you TRUSTED, and who had your best interests at heart…
…a point where you HAD learned HUMILITY after being knocked back enough that the arrogance of youth had lessened such that you were open to advice?
Who would you ask for such advice?
A parent? A brother or sister? A trusted friend?
A spiritual leader, a priest, a rabbi?
A sage, a shaman?
GOD?
What if you asked your FUTURE SELF who already lived what you are living NOW…
…and without giving away too much to spoil the adventures in store for you…
…gave you some hints, some fresh perspectives, some insights
regarding OPTIONS available to you for moving forward
that THEY can see but YOU cannot?
What if you were to deliberately access your future self’s wisdom to receive advice to benefit your current self TODAY?
Shouldn’t this be possible given that EVERYTHING is now?
Informing our collective selves
from the future…
Since everything is now,
in addition to being able to inform ourselves INDIVIDUALLY from our most ideal version of the future, we can…
…EXTEND THE CONCEPT…
…to informing ourselves COLLECTIVELY from the future.
Just as EACH of us can seek advice from our ideal future selves,
We can seek advice from our future COLLECTIVE wisdom.
IMAGINE reaching forward in time to
ACCESS the most ideal version of our future society and community,
then EXTRACT from it key understanding and wisdom relevant to our present era,
and using this to ENHANCE our collective experience as a community and a society.
Simply put, accessing what THEY will know THEN, and apply it to improve our NOW, today.
This is Paradigm 3k’s MISSION…
…to take AVAILABLE understandings, truths, and wisdom from FUTURE timelines
and brings them into the PRESENT to benefit us TODAY.
These understandings are the PILLARS and the PRACTICES are their application in daily life.
The concept of bringing FUTURE knowledge to the PRESENT hinges on the understanding that
Everything is Here & Now
This fundamental understanding UNDERPINS the entire concept of this WEBSITE and its VALUE to individuals, and to Humanity.
This has been a LOT to absorb...
We have just covered another concept that is challenging for most to integrate into their understanding. It is not something the mainstream, Official Line of Consciousness acknowledges or even understands. So now…
Like we did at the end of P4 – Oneness…
