Time of the experiencer refers to the relationship between the witness of all experiences and the flow of time. On the path of knowledge, the Experiencer is timeless — it is the unchanging awareness in which the experience of time arises and dissolves.

The Experiencer Beyond Time

• The experiencer is not subject to time — time is an experience that appears in the Experiencer, like all other experiences.

• Birth and death are experiences that happen to the body-mind — the Experiencer is never born and never dies.

• Past, present, and future are categories of memory — the Experiencer is always present, always now.

• In deep meditation or contemplation, the sense of time can dissolve, revealing the timeless nature of awareness.
