"nec cum illis moror, quibus me tempus aliquod congregavit aut causa ex
officio nata civili, sed cum optimo quoque sum : ad illos, in quocumque
loco, in quocumque saeculo fuerunt, animum meum mitto." (Seneca Ep. ad Lucilium
LXII)
"Nor do I linger with those whom some time or other has brought me
together nor because of something born of civil office, but rather I am
with the best -- to those in whatever place, in whatever time they were,
I send my mind and soul."
The mind is precisely this three-dimensional time-space through which we human beings can mindfully move freely, back and forth, to the "best" this time-space has to offer. Such time-space is open, whereas today's scientific, efficiently causal, linear time is one-dimensional, calculating, constricted, unfree.
