"The Now"

"It starts now, it didn't begin in the past, there was no past. See, if the univerese began in the past, when that happened it was the now, it's still the now. And the universe is still begining now and it's trailing of like a wake of a ship from now, and the wake of the ship fades out, so does the past. You can look back there to explain things but the explanation dissapears, you will never find it there, things are not explaind by the past, they are explaind what happenes now. The Now creates the past. It begins here. Thats the birth of responibility." - Alan Watts
