You Are the Center of a Whirlwind, and What’s Around It Is “Time”
How This Analogy Helps You Step Into Your True Self
Imagine yourself standing in the middle of a whirlwind. All around you, winds are howling, things are flying, and time is swirling. It’s wild, it’s chaotic.
But right there, at the center, where you are, it’s calm. This is you — the unchanging, infinite part that’s at the core of everything.
The whole whirlwind (or in this representation, a hurricane) represents life, with all its ups and downs, its crazy moments, and its quiet ones.
And time? Time is everything that whirls around you. But no matter how crazy it gets, the center — that’s you — stays still.
Time flows by, it flows around you.

Our 3D Reality Is Beginning To Blur
As We Head From Spacetime Into Timespace, Our Rulers Don’t Rule the Same Anymore We live in a world of structure, where everything has its place and time. We’ve always seen reality in three dimensions, and time as a straight line stretching from the past, through the present, and into the future.
But time is not changing the thing that’s always here.
This stillness at the center, that’s your true self.
Many books have written about this strength that can be found in the center, in the present moment, in the stillness within. An example you possibly know is “The Power Of Now” by Eckhart Tolle.
It’s not shaken by the storm, not pushed by the wind. It’s the part of you that’s always been there, unchanged, since you were a kid. It’s your essence, your spirit, your core.
Now, Why Does This Matter?
