Past Live In The Moment Forget

More From Nicole Kidman

To dwell in the here and now does not mean you never think about the past or responsibly plan for the future. the idea is simply not to allow yourself to get lost in regrets about the past or worries about the future. if you are firmly grounded in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness and concentration. you can attain many insights by looking into the past. but you are still grounded in the present moment.
Buddhist Regret Mean
The past is dead, and has no resurrection; but the future is endowed with such a life, that it lives to us even in anticipation. the past is, in many things, the foe of mankind; the future is, in all things, our friend. in the past is no hope; the future is both hope and fruition. the past is the text-book of tyrants; the future is the bible of the free. those who are solely governed by the past stand like lot's wife, crystallized in the act of looking backward, and forever incapable of looking before.

We spend our whole lives worrying about the future, planning for the future, trying to predict the future, as if figuring it out will cushion the blow. but the future is always changing. the future is the home of our deepest fears and wildest hopes. but one thing is certain when it finally reveals itself. the future is never the way we imagined it.

In quantum mechanics there is a causing b. the equations do not stand outside that usual paradigm of physics. the real issue is that the kinds of things you predict in quantum mechanics are different from the kinds of things you predict using general relativity. quantum mechanics, that big, new, spectacular remarkable idea is that you only predict probabilities, the likelihood of one outcome or another. that's the new idea.
Real Ideas Issues
How can we dare to predict the behavior of man? we may predict the movements of a machine, of an automaton; more than this, we many even try to predict the mechanisms or "dynamisms" of the human psyche as well. but man is more than psyche.
Men Trying Machines
Let each of us examine his thoughts; he will find them wholly concerned with the past or the future. we almost never think of the present, and if we do think of it, it is only to see what light is throws on our plans for the future. the present is never our end. the past and the present are our means, the future alone our end. thus we never actually live, but hope to live, and since we are always planning how to be happy, it is inevitable that we should never be so.
