Embracing the Expansive Edge of Now: The Steadiness of Stones Nature Meditation {part 2}

·18 min·1 clip
Quantum physics reveals the universe is made of events, not things—even a stone is just a very, very long event.
Meditation teacher Meryl Arnett explores the physics and philosophy of time, correcting a previous error about time contraction and grappling with physicist Carlo Rovelli's idea that 'now means nothing.' She merges these concepts with meditation, reframing the present moment as a personal, expanding edge of experience rather than a static point, culminating in a guided nature meditation.
