time into some other space, where time flows completely differently. I would go there, do what I needed to do, and then return back. But this is not just an illusion of perception, like when someone feels that time is moving fast or slow, or when people think it’s just about mood or state of mind, or whether one’s thoughts are active or not. No. I mean this physically. Now, I’ll give you a rough example – though later, I might rephrase everything and realize that this example isn’t entirely accurate. But at this moment, it’s the only way I can describe, in images, what I am experiencing – the only way I can try to explain it. Look, imagine that I sit down to write a book, and let’s say it’s 10 in the morning, and I finish writing at 6 in the evening. Now, from 10 AM to 6 PM, people generally – of course, everyone has their own productivity level, their own rhythm, some get distracted by food, by the restroom – but still, the approximate volume of work is understandable, meaning it can be calculated within a certain range, estimating how much a person could realistically accomplish if they worked on a book from 10 AM to 6 PM. Even if it’s the laziest, most foolish person or the smartest person in the world, the range of time would still be roughly predictable. For example, a lazy person might write, say, 100 pages, while the fastest person in the world might manage 200 pages in that same time from 10 AM to 6 PM. But let’s say I took that time and wrote 1,000 pages – just as an example, again, just an example. And now the question is – this is where the key difference lies – how is it possible that I managed to complete a volume of work in that time that is physically impossible for a human to do? How did I manage to write 1,000 pages from 10 AM to 6 PM? If that would normally take at least ten days or a week, even at an accelerated pace – how did it happen? And so, here’s the explanation I’ll give you – what happens is that when I do something, I don’t know how I do it, but I step out of the time you experience from 10 AM to 6 PM, I exit it and live through an entire week within that time – literally, physically, I spend a whole week doing something – and then I return back to you, and the time, for example, is exactly 6 PM, the day has ended. Do you understand? The example isn’t great, but let’s take another one – using an hour, it might be clearer. Imagine there is an hour of time, or two hours, from 2 to 4. And from 2 to 4, you experience time as two hours. Of course, each of you can accomplish a certain amount of tasks, but you still do it within your own time from 2 to 4, meaning you are given these two hours. But I can do something
