You have actually just hit the proverbial nail on the head. Even though we are able to intellectually understand, to a certain extent, that time may not exist, we are limited in discussing it because of the limitations of our language and of our own understanding.-Maybe it's just me--but I don't have this problem. It is likely due to my time in Buddhism, but time is a concept I am willing to let go; many religions speak of acting in the present moment... the reason is that when the urge to do good comes your way, most people decide to shelve it for later, for when they don't have time... Sufi writers especially discuss this tragedy. -A timeless universe is easy for me to comprehend. It actually simplifies a great many things.

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
