We experience the present under the fragrance cast by the past and under the illusionary aura of the future.
What we are at this very moment is determined by the sum total of all our experiences till this moment. And the step that you take at this moment, will determine your future. Past and future both require a functional mind to exist. Only the present prevails independent of mind _ independent of life.
