Every moment is infinite

What does it mean that every moment is infinite?

A person’s lifetime, no matter how short or long, is made up of an infinite number of smaller moments. A single day is made up of an infinite number of smaller moments. Even a single second is made up of an infinite number of smaller moments.

If we are able to dwell in the infinitesimally small moments that make up every second of our realities, then we can experience infinity itself. Time would seem to stand still. This is why we often experience timelessness during meditation.

Mindfulness is the art of arriving at the present moment. By inhabiting our bodies, accepting all things that are happening both inside and outside of us, without resisting, we arrive at the present moment. We can say to ourselves, “This is it, I am here.”

Mindfulness is the quality of being here now. Being here now means dwelling in the present moment and actively participating in the unfolding of our own reality. When we actively inhabit our bodies and attune our awareness to the here and now, we dwell in the eternal stillness that is this moment.
