They said that's the way it looks to you because you are looking at it from a region having certain conditions, certain influences, but they said that if you were to go away from this region you would find that a different set of circumstances prevailed. definite velocity of 186,000 miles per second. They said that's away a year. So you can see right away that the very premise the way it looks to you because you are looking at it from a on which the theory of relativity is predicated—namely, that if region having certain conditions, certain influences, but they B is relative to A, then A must be relative to B—leads you to said that if you were to go away from this region you would —_an impossible paradox. This paradox is resolved completely if find that a different set of circumstances prevailed. you recognise the variable nature of time. As you move around from one part of the universe to the other, you THE PARADOX OF TIME encounter all sorts of values of time in certain given intervals. Another thing they told us cast a great deal of doubt on our Now, I find that this idea of the concept of the variable ideas of time. They told us that time wasn't at all what we nature of time to be almost incomprehensible to most people... thought it was, namely, what might be marked off with the We were born with more intelligence than we have after we ticking of a clock; that time was, in fact, a field function, the graduate from university because we've had it beaten out of us result of there being a universe—that is, something which was in the process. The very first thing that we learn when we are derived from the basic primordial concepts which brought this a very small child is that the feeding must be regulated by the universe into being, and that it differed as you went from one clock. We don't know about the clock, but regardless of how part of the universe to the other. Also it could be altered, we feel on the subject we still get the bottle at a certain time, sometimes by natural
