It isn´t an object in itself but it´s measured with them, time is a widely used and almost unknown concept, something that in concrete terms means little and nothing because it isn´t a physical element but in turn, it´s inextricably linked with everything. What we see, touch and measure; as all fact experienced. It contains an abstract meaning that by itself represents nothing because all moments seem to each other, as equal as they´re different, a mere consequence in the succession of events determining the measure of movement; movement that´s not by chance, is also a concept that´s measured and doesn´t exist by itself. This contrast between the abstract of phenomena and the concrete of things is the result of an immediate judgment that can bring us some surprises; precisely because of that sequential principle derived from time. Linked to things and events, time is inseparable from them and contrary to what is supposed, it isn´t very different from them either.

Linked to things and events, time is inseparable from them and contrary to what is supposed, it isn´t very different from them either. Everything comes and everything goes, everything is and it isn´t because everything happens and nothing remains, everything follows the dynamics of a mechanism that reduces the concrete to its abstract foundation, where even the real is idealized. Everything passes and nothing remains, things exist in time and don´t remain because, like time, to exist they´re affirmed and denied consecutively; then the image of time is the image of an existence that of life is its experience. Time brings everything and carries everything and in that which comes and goes, everything is transformed; being in this process the living image of existence. This changing form of things is the image of becoming, about an existence that is its experience of life, as if the physical structure of the world were a metaphysics of time.

PURPOSE OF THE WORK

With this small work the author tries to broadly expose a very brief sample of his model of logical and philosophical analysis, but it´s also a kind of introduction to a much more complex, extensive and deep treatise that will be published at some point.

AUTHOR'S FOREWORD

Regarding the title, this is the meaning derived from the image of time, the reason can be said in advance: it isn´t a metaphor because its meaning is literal, time has images that aren´t few because they´re precisely all; as a space that contains everything based on the same and the different. The world is made to be observed, it´s for this reason, the extensive and active field of form and movement, which is the product of things in time; as is the succession that follows from every process. This means that every image is a function of time, generating and transforming things that, when viewed, become conscious meanings. But it can also be said with the same right, that this time is the consequent result of a meaning-creating process; leaving both possibilities as the terms of an equation - different, symmetric and equivalent. This relationship isn´t accidental, since every construction is made of quantities, proportions and intensities that can be calculated. And because the world is characterized by the logic of a mathematical order, directly associated with the mystique that´s followed by elements that can be both concrete and imaginary, on a reality elaborated with numerical entities and geometric procedures.

INTRODUCTION

Based on common sense and even science, it´s inferred that time doesn´t seem to exist by itself but, on the contrary, is intimately linked with all observed phenomena; It wouldn´t be a thing but the discontinuous relationship of a continuous context. It´s then necessary to resort to the analysis of phenomena to discover their true meaning; not coincidentally, this procedure is a process that also develops over time.

Life is made of a multiplicity of conscious and unconscious meanings that constitute the experience of existing, where the most important thing is found in a sense that, being decisive, isn´t directly observable. Without this sense, everyone's life at some point becomes unbearable because, in fact, it´s the cause of all evil; which are existential problems. We look for this sense because intuitively we know that it exists, and also that it´s the ultimate meaning and the one that serves as a reference as a starting point and support for all experience. A sense that due to its unique character, must be beyond all inconsistent and contradictory speculations, such as magic, miracle and even reason; these concepts, identified with superstition, religion and science-partially instrumented and essentially lost, like all ideologies. Attempts with various intentions, whose ultimate ends are not in the truth but in establishing themselves as a dominant belief; where only power seems to make sense - a power that death turns into a failed attempt.

There´s no greater problem for man than his way of existing and being in the world ( He suffers from it and doesn´t understand it a lot ), a place understood as previous, alien and external that contains everything, the area where everything that exists inhabits and moves; and that paradoxically, it appears different from the very thing it contains. But with equal right, man in his consciousness also contains imaginatively the totality of the sensible world; both are different and each in its own way, mutually contains the other. In one case as a material phenomenon and in the other about an ideal process, remaining to determine which´s the actual and which´s the symbolic. This hypothesis of a concrete and external world is already from the first moment, the result of a previous contradictory composition based on two fundamental aspects that, being necessary to justify themselves, belong to different principles such as space and time; especially because even being the foundation of the obvious, none of them is observable. But this is only the beginning of an existential problem that, being equal and different from the vital question, implies having to consider a relationship that mediates between a physical and a psychic nature from the same and unique experience; a situation that´s as effective as it´s incomprehensible and definitive. This conception of reality starts from an extensive problematic principle, about a world that from the outset doesn´t seem to have limits or measure but especially, because its study seems to be intuitively unfolded into three complementary and contradictory aspects; which´s at least an incongruity. Due to the sensory fact of its procedure, the context destined for interpretation needs the concurrence of the different; that is, of the psychic component. The first factor is a process, the second is an object and the third is the subject that gives an account and reason for everything that is being observed, it´s also what is thinking about all this; ideas that constitute with experience, the general meaning of their existence.
