By the name of almighty the God, when time started? When will it end? One certainly doesn’t know and can’t know. How vast this universe is? One cannot imagine and will not be able to imagine. The eternity can neither be proved nor defined but it can be felt. The God's men do feel it. For example, (just for explanation) it is said that once upon a time there was a God's man. God sent his angel to tell him that the time of his death had approached. The God's man replied to the angel that he didn’t want to die at that time. The angel then asked the God for further orders. The God said, “tell him, that he can live as much years as he wants but ask him the number of years.” The angel again appeared before that man and delivered the message. The man asked the angel, “Again there is a time limit in which I have to die?” The angel replied “Death is must for all the creations.” The man replied “Come, I am ready to die. That time will also approach, so better to die now and fulfill the God's will.” The humans can feel eternity in them. They can transcend to this elevation.
For further explanation let me narrate another story. This will also help to clarify my view. Once upon a time there lived a small group of believers in a town. The people of that town turned very harsh to them. They fled the town to save their lives. They felt tired and slept in a cave. When they woke up they felt hungry. They sent one of them to bring food from the town, they had left. When he entered the town, he was very cautious about his identity. Because if the people had recognized him, they would have been in danger. He produced the coins to buy food but the shop keeper looked upon him very curiously and told him that the coins were very old and were not valid. Then the man walked in the town and saw that everything had been changed. The whole generation had changed. He spoke to the people. The people had heard about those believers from their elders. They heard the whole story from the man and went with him to see the cave and the believers. They verified all the situations and the whole story, and then they brought those believers to the town with much respect and agreed with them in their belief. For the men in the cave there had not passed a day but for the people in the town so many years had passed. Who were correct in the counting of time? Both sides were correct, but there was a difference in perception.
The God can make feel these like differences in perception, whenever and wherever he wants. He is almighty and the creator of time. The people who die might be perceiving the time very very little as compared to living.
Sleep is a rehearsal of death. Why sleep? If a man is tired/fatigued, he can lay down without a sleep. But the God created sleep and sleep is must and this is a sign of the God. How helpless a man is when he is asleep? He is unaware of the world and everything around him, and yet he enjoys it more than anything else. He consumes about half of his life in sleep. When he is asleep, it does not matter for him whether he is rich or poor, mighty or weak, privileged or deprived etc. the God gets hold of him and then he is asleep, not conscious about counting of time. He gets up and recalls in his mind all about himself, rich or poor, powerful or weak, relatives and friends, race and religion, time and date etc. After some moments he is what he was before he slept. Some people say time is money. Time can never be bought with money. Time is child hood, youth and old age. Can these be interchanged with money? Time is the God's creation and the God's creations have no alternatives. Time changes powerful and powerless, rich and poor, happy and sad, many and few, honorable and disgraced and all whatever and whichever are in this universe.
Have you observed a person deeply involved and lost while watching a drama or film? Sometimes he is so lost in such a story which begins from the childhood of a character and ends in his old age or even a generation changes, that he forgets the actual perception of time. He thinks in the moments of his involvement that the time is really changing so fast. He takes some moments to recall his mind out of that sub- consciousness. Here lies the difference in perception of time between living and dead. To the dead the lifetime can just seem a drama. Even for the many living having passed many years, their past time seems to them a drama. Time is a perception like eternity and cannot be subjected to just numerical countings.
