Time

A YEAR has passed. Already at school I wondered that: (a) time runs one way (b) how it is known and (c) how do you know that the future is in front and the past is behind. In the Andes there is the AMARO people, for whom the FUTURE IS BEHIND and the PAST IN FRONT. I also thought so much like most children.

That’s why children like to walk backwards so much. The reasons why we like such pleasures were described sensationally by Philippe Delerm in the book: “The first sip of beer and other minor pleasures”. The Cheyen people had the only association in the world whose members had to do everything the other way around.

It was only quite recently that scientists came across an explanation of why the so-called time arrow runs in one direction: well, it has to do with a certain feature of our COSMOS AS A WHOLE. It is a feature of the cosmos, which is the structure of the distribution of all matter throughout the cosmos (this structure is a kind of internal clock of the whole cosmos, through which the universe as a whole has one story).

The same feature also explains why in our cosmos light ONLY FLIES out of the flame of a candle and does not ARRIVE. Maxwell’s mathematical equations showed that it might as well move in the opposite direction – to fly from space to a candle flame.
