This concept is difficult to put into words, but it is quite clear once you understand the relationship between a transformation dimension and the three dimensions that follow it. For example, time itself cannot be measured within our space/time; the measuring of change over time is relative and dependent upon the existence of at least one following dimension. What we call seconds, minutes, and hours are symbols we use to indicate the rate of change along one or more spatial dimensions. If we could use those units to measure time without reference to any other dimension, we would be measuring time itself. But how do you know what a minute is without a clock or other spatial reference to guide you? To get a feel for this, try the mental exercise of attempting to measure time without resorting to the referencing of other dimensions; it cannot be done. This is because the units of measurement we use for time have meaning only when compared to a reference, such as the atomic clock, and inherent in that reference is the referencing of spatial dimensions. Relative to our space/time universe, actual time itself is static, or more accurately, is pure potentiality, but this characteristic enables dynamic movement within the following three dimensions.
True measurement of time could be in units of seconds, minutes, hours, or etc., along the dimension itself but this measurement would define a distance between alternate realities, not between points of movement in our space/time.
Can these alternate realities be accessed? In fact, we do so every day of our lives, and furthermore, we observe them as we compare experiences with other people. Each of us is making our way through a unique set of alternate realities that comprise what we call our life. No two people live through identical alternate realities, as can be demonstrated by interviewing multiple witnesses to an event such as a crime. This is not a mystery; take two of the witnesses at this hypothetical crime scene. One of them is smoking and, on seeing the crime take place, removes the cigarette from their mouth, throws it on the street, and stomps it out. The other witness is not smoking at all. The smoker's reality includes the smoking as well as the extinguishing of the cigarette, while the non-smoker's reality includes neither of these aspects of experience. The non-smoker could have chosen to smoke, but they did not, and that choice made their reality alternate to that of the smoking witness. This difference in realities (smoking vs. non-smoking) is only a single example of many differences between each of the realities we live through.
What we experience as movement through time is in a direction transverse to the actual time dimension. As a result, we are surrounded by neither the past nor the future, but rather a vast plurality of alternate realities that converge and diverge at the point we call "now". The choices we make continually determine which of the alternate realities we live through. This should help you understand what I mean when I state that time is pure potentiality; that potentiality is actualized differently by each of us as we make individual choices.
However, movement through time is not Real, but is a result of dimensional limitation. Actually, any perception of dimensions requires dimensional limitation to be inherent in perception, because finite dimensional measurements are fractions of whole dimensions, while whole dimensions in turn represent fractions of Infinity. This concept, "fractions of Infinity", is explained in Fractalic Awakening; to recap, a fraction of Infinity is a unique parameter of infinite measure, such as a line of infinite length or a plane of infinite area. Since time is One, just as everything else is, accurate perception of time as a whole dimension would be indicated by a simultaneous Awareness of the entirety of the dimension, not just a point or finite distance along the dimension. To perceive in this manner would be to perceive all of time as a simultaneous structure rather than as a linear progression.
An exercise to help you visualize this concept is to imagine yourself at a point on a line, moving inexorably in one direction with no option to reverse course. You can imagine what lies "ahead" and remember what lies "behind", but you cannot alter your rate or direction of travel. Next, visualize yourself "escaping" the limitations of this point and line by "moving" away from them at right angles to the line. From this new dimensional vantage point, you can now see the entire line, including the point you were once limited to, and you see it all simultaneously as a unit, not as a point-by-point progression. From this new vantage point, there is no "past" or "future", just the time dimension as One. Interestingly enough, the only vantage point where this is true is the center; if you move in a direction away from the center, rather than towards the center, you will not be able to see all of time simultaneously because the curvature of time will keep part of the dimension "hidden" from that vantage point.
The eighth dimension, which I call the pulse of time, is also a transformation dimension because it transforms the dynamic into the energetic. The eighth dimension enables energetic movement within the first three dimensions; this energetic movement is defined by dimensions nine through eleven, and is in a direction at right angles to the movement defined by dimensions five through seven. The pulse of time also sets the "speed limit" of space/time (the speed of light); anything moving faster than this speed will transcend the dimensional parameter of time itself and thus "disappear" relative to those of us here in space/time.
With regard to the pulse of time being defined as the expansion and contraction of time, the emission and absorption of energy can be understood personally as expansion and contraction within a given focus (e.g. you). This perception brings with it the further understanding that energy does not leave you or separate from you, but simply expands out from you while remaining a part of, or connected to, you. The act of taking your energy back, therefore, is not a process whereby you must find separated energetic fragments outside of yourself and retrieve them as if you were collecting scattered marbles. The truth is that you pull back or draw in energetic that has remained connected to you after expanding out, being attracted to, and/or adhering onto, something or someone congruent with it. Contrast this with the conventional idea that discrete energy waves, particles or "wavicles" leave an object (i.e. are emitted) and are acquired by another object (i.e. are absorbed) or radiated out into space. In this conventional viewpoint, the wave, "wavicle", or particle separates from the source, moves through empty space, and then is absorbed by the sink, thereby becoming a part of the sink and fully divorced from the source. This idea is congruent with the paradigm of separation which, as I have already pointed out, is not Reality.
Do other dimensions exist besides these eleven? Of course; many more do, but to define them, we must move beyond space/time. The twelfth dimension, for example, is a transformation dimension that I call the dance of time and involves an oscillation that is plane-congruent with the fourth dimension itself, enabling such higher-dimensional (13th through 15th) activities as freezing time or jumps in time. However, moving around in time in this manner is not characteristic of the range of motion available in our space/time universe, so we would consider movement along these higher dimensions to be supernatural.
While the eleven dimensions comprise the fundamental iteration that has yielded our space/time, the process of iteration is not over once the eleven dimensions have been manifested from the Infinite Point. As in the generation of a mathematical fractal image such as the Mandelbrot set, the eleven dimensions are used as a new starting point for iteration at higher orders of magnitude. Thus, the 11-dimensional spherical construct becomes the new point from which a higher-order spherical construct is developed, using the same eleven dimensions as previously described.
