1065. Since the above-mentioned "I" can acknowledge or experience itself as a "something" that wills, that can juggle with energy, movement or substance and thereby create "material" phenomena and can thus, as the creator of these phenomena, perceive itself as being "outside" them – none of these phenomena therefore being capable of expressing its analysis – it is clear that it can experience its own highest analysis only as "X". But as "X", it does not constitute a "living being". It is merely "something that is". It constitutes a "living being" only by virtue of its ability (X2) to experience itself being "within" these "created phenomena" (the organism and the movement), which are produced by itself; it then appears to its own senses as a "living being". The difference between its analysis as a "living being" and its analysis as "X" is defined by the fact that in the first analysis it constitutes the "now", while in the second analysis it constitutes "eternity".
      In order to understand this, one must realise that "eternity" is the same as the "unlimited". And since only the "unlimited" can equal "X", the "unlimited" constitutes the living being's primary or highest analysis. One must likewise remember that the "now" is the same as the "limited". It will always constitute a well-defined "central area" between past and future. Since past and future do not exist for something that does not have consciousness, the living being will be the absolutely only existing reality that can be "one" with the "now". The "now" thus constitutes the "temporary" reflection of the above-mentioned "something" or "eternity". Since this reflection in its entirety can occur only in the form of a "living being" it here thus becomes an unshakeable fact that this being and the "now" are identical. The highest cosmic analysis of the living being is thus "eternity", while its highest temporal analysis is the "now".
