Sestdienas naktī TV3 mani pārsteidza nesagatavotu ar interesantu (mult)filmu "Pamosties, lai dzīvotu" (" Waking life"). Tas bija viens apskaužami labs klausām un skatāmgabals. Neliels citāts no filmas: "And he [ Philip K. Dick] was really into Gnosticism, and this
idea that this demiurge, or demon, had created this illusion of time to make us
forget that Christ was about to return, and the kingdom of God was about to
arrive. And that we're all in 50 A.D., and there's someone trying to make us
forget that God is imminent. And that's what time is. That's what all of
history is. It's just this kind of continuous, you know, daydream, or
distraction.[..] So we're walking along, and Lady
Gregory turns to me and says, "Let me explain to you the nature of the universe.
Now Philip K. Dick is right about time, but he's wrong that it's 50 A.D.
Actually, there's only one instant, and it's right now, and it's
eternity. And it's an instant in which God is posing a question, and that
question is basically, 'Do you want to, you know, be one with eternity? Do you
want to be in heaven?' And we're all saying, 'No thank you. Not just yet.' And
so time is actually just this constant saying 'No' to God's invitation. I mean
that's what time is. I mean, and it's no more 50 A.D. than it's two thousand
and one. And there's just this one instant, and that's what we're always
in."
