Peace be upon you, dear teacher.
A question has come to mind about time. If we imagine time as a ruler or a thread, with the past, present and future unfolding along it, and a person moving through it, then if that person could step outside this space—or, more precisely, look down on this journey from above—they could easily witness the past, present and future all at once. My question is: could this be possible in reality? Can it be said that such a thing is actually achievable?
Thank you for your kindness.

When a person gains access to the realm of destiny, they become able to survey time and space. Time, in a sense, is a particular manifestation of knowledge. For knowledge to be absorbed by the faculties of understanding and perception, it requires various means, one of which is time. In other words, time is a gallery of knowledge, and one of its tablets. Time is a garment that clothes knowledge, and one of its veils.
To enter the realm of knowledge without any garment, veil or covering is to pass beyond time and space. Time and space are like shadows, images, traces and footprints of knowledge. They are signs that direct our attention to knowledge. Once we reach knowledge itself, all of time and space will be held in our embrace.
