What is the present?

 The sensation of 'now' arises through consciousness, but I don't believe that either now or consciousness reside within a single sliver. You need a series of slivers to generate both.

  • Now is a construct of that consciousness
  • There is no Now independent of consciousness
  • It's Now when consciousness comes to a standstill
  • When consciousness 'moves', there cannot be a Now
  • Now, as it is perceived, may be spread across a series of slivers
