The Happening of Time in Consciousness

Author(s) Dr. Plamen N. Nikolov
Country Bulgaria
Abstract From a subjective point of view, the true essence of time consists in the fact that current events that impress us are experienced either as mentally occurring and happening now (in the present), or simply a priori defined as past or future, relative to the apodictic legitimacy of actuality.
Because of this observation, we will focus this article on assessing the happening of the anthropological status of the present, or the so-called “now”, viewed as an attribute of events that undergo a collision at the level of perception in the subject's consciousness. Therefore, we could note that our anthropocentric experience discovers a variety of “now-contents” in consciousness, which are arranged in time according to each “before” or “after”. In this way, the most essential property of the experienced world, which is encoded through instrumental (physical) time, becomes nothing other than the very existence of an apparent variety of “now” moments, in which the future as such should not be considered more significant than the past.
