Tertium-Organum-by-P-D-Ouspensky

motionless bodies -
species, varieties, families, peoples, tribes 
and so on, and possibly only 'thought phenomena' will appear as motion. 
We know that phenomena of motion or manifestations of energy are connected with an 
expenditure of time. And we see that with a gradual transition from lower to higher 
space, movements disappear, becoming translated into properties of motionless bodies. 
This means that the expenditure of time disappears, the need for time disappears. The 
two-dimensional being needs 
time
for the explanation of the simplest phenomena - an 
angle, an incline, a cavity. We no longer need time to explain such phenomena, but we 
need it to explain phenomena of motion and physical phenomena. In a still higher space 
our phenomena of motion and physical phenomena will probably be seen, without any 
time, as properties of motionless bodies, and biological phenomena - birth, growth, 
reproduction and death, will be regarded as phenomena of motion. 
Thus we see how expansion of consciousness makes the idea of time recede. 
* C. H. Hinton, 
The Fourth Dimension,
London, 1912, reprinted Arno Press, New 
York, 1976, p. 77. 


We see how entirely conditional it is. 
We see that by time are designated the characteristics of a space higher than the 
given one, i.e. the characteristics of representations of a consciousness higher than the 
given one. 
For a one-dimensional being all the characteristics of the two-dimensional; three­
dimensional, four-dimensional and still higher space lie in time - all this is 
time.
For a 
two-dimensional being time includes characteristics of three-dimensional, four­
dimensional and still higher space. For a man, i.e. a three-dimensional being, time 
includes characteristics of four-dimensional and higher space. 
Thus, as consciousness and forms of perception rise and expand, the characteristics 
of space increase and those of time decrease. 
In other words, the growth of space-sense proceeds at the expense of time-sense. Or 
it can be said that time-sense is an imperfect space-sense (i.e. faculty of imperfect 
representation) and that, as it becomes more perfect, it passes into space-sense, i.e. into 
the faculty of representing in forms. 
If, on the basis of all the principles we have elucidated, we try to form an idea of the 
universe, however abstract, it will quite naturally be a universe totally different from 
the one we are accustomed to represent to ourselves. In the first place, it will not 
depend on time at all. 
Everything
in it will exist 
always.
It will be the universe of the 
ETERNAL NOW 
of Indian philosophy - a universe in which there will be no 
before
and 
no 
after,
but only the present
known
or 
unknown. 
Hinton feels that with the 
expansion of space-sense
our view of the world should 
undergo a complete change, and he speaks of this in his book A 
New Era of Thought: 
The conception which we shall form of the universe will undoubtedly be as different 
from our present one, as the Copernican view differs from the more pleasant view of 
a wide immovable earth beneath a vast vault. Indeed, any conception of our place in 
the universe will be more agreeable than the thought of being on a spinning ball
kicked into space without any means of communication with any other inhabitants of 
the universe.* 
What then is the world of many dimensions, what are many-dimensional bodies, whose 
lines and sides are perceived by us as 
motion? 
A very great power of imagination is needed to escape, even for a brief moment
from the limits of
