       The concept of time in human terms is unique to that species. Even within that
       species  it  seems  that  time  is  a  “modern”  concept  and  devised  to  order
       humanity. If one is to consider ancient calendars they would only include such
       times as the time to sow and the time to harvest, and would include a few other
       annual events such as anniversaries. The significances of these events were to
       the people and not to the corporations. There was no need for the subdivisions
       of the intervening times into weeks, days, hours, minutes or seconds. These
       days timings are down to milliseconds. Have you ever pondered the necessity
       of this? Time has become your dictator. Yes, creation devised a certain order
       in  the  universe  but  humankind  adapted  that  to  its  advantage,  perhaps  as  a
       control system to maximise the commitment of the ‘slave’ to its ‘master’. If
       one  is  to  consider  how  this  measurement  of  time  determines  one’s  actions,
       how that so often there are “not enough hours in the day” in which to complete
       the tasks that are set for us, and how much time is set aside for the service of
       ‘others’. How little time is set aside for self service, how humankind has lost a
       sense  of  the  importance  of  self,  replacing  ‘self’  with  ‘serve’.  Of  course  we
       acknowledge that there is a greater existence outside of ourselves but it does
       after all begin with the fundamental importance of human life, the journey of
       the Spirit through the world of incarnation. Yes, it might be found that one has
       chosen a life of servitude, but this does not imply that the service is at a cost to
       the  server.  All  life  must  benefit  the  Spirit.  We  spoke  of  how  humanity  has
       been trained to sell it’s self to service. We spoke how humankind has been
       enslaved through the manipulation into dependency. We spoke how time has
       been  devised  down  to  very  tight  schedule  to  manipulate  the  expenditure  of
       human energy to the benefit of others who control and limit normal access to
       the  facilities  that  the  human  being  needs  for  its  continued  existence.
       Humankind  is  on  the  brink  of  extinction  as  a  consequence  of  the  material
       greed of the few. The majority of humankind are enslaved and new births are
       but  the  production  of  fodder  for  the  ruthless  to  use  to  further  their  own
       material  agenda.  If  one  is  to  look  into  past  societies,  or  even  examine  the
