and, interestingly, one of the best ways to stop time is to play music (on the keyboard ... i'm not good enough at any other instrument to get into that state w/ it...)
music is all about time and the flowing of time. but, playing music seems to so fully occupy the parts of my mind that are absorbed with the flowing of time, that the other parts of my mind are freed from the need to perceive this flowing, and can just float there outside of time, looking forwards and backwards or perceiving time as a whole in the same manner as one perceives regions of space...
after all the logic of music does flow both forwards and backwards, and time-interval-criss-crossing and time-traveling wildly ... sometimes a triumph of time over pattern but sometimes a triumph of pattern over time...
