FastSaying

The present (time) is a very subtle thing. On one side there is the past and on the other side there is the future, and in the middle of this, in the subtle part, lies the present. It cannot be grasped by one who is ignorant of the Self (agnani), only a a Self-realized being (Gnani) can grasp it.
