Space-Time (Friendly Version)

Time Isn't What You Think

Have you ever been so absorbed in something you loved that hours slipped by feeling like minutes? Or endured a long wait where ten minutes stretched like an eternity?

In Lifechanyuan's framework, these experiences are not illusions. They are faint echoes of a real shift between different space-time states.

Time: A "Recorder" of Motion

Lifechanyuan offers a striking definition of time:

"Time is the 'recorder' of the states of material motion; time arises from motion — without motion there is no time."

In other words, time is not an independent river flowing on its own — it is produced by the movement of all things. Stop all movement, and time itself ceases.

Even more counterintuitive: time is antimatter. It is not something you can see with your eyes or touch with your hands. It belongs to the invisible world that physical senses cannot reach — a world that must be felt through spiritual sensing.

Two Kinds of Time: Vertical and Horizontal

This is one of the most fascinating distinctions in Lifechanyuan's philosophy of time:

Vertical time = the ordinary flow of time we experience day to day, moving from yesterday through today into tomorrow — a one-way street.

Horizontal time = at any given moment on that one-way street, the possibility of "turning" into an entirely different dimension — one where time stops flowing.

"There is horizontal space-time in the universe; within horizontal space-time, time does not exist. Upon entering horizontal space-time, one feels no passage of time. Yet from the perspective of earthly time, a few seconds in horizontal space-time may equal decades or even thousands of years."

Picture a peach placed inside a refrigerator. Outside, time races on — but inside, the peach stays fresh and young. Xuefeng used exactly this image to describe what horizontal space-time does to a person:

"People who can regularly enter horizontal time… are like a peach placed inside a refrigerator — it is perfectly at ease in there… You will be free from illness, you will preserve your youth, you will gradually adapt to the way of life in higher LIFE spaces, you will forge immortal affinities, and ultimately cultivate into an immortal to live in the Kingdom of Heaven."

Space Has More Than Three Dimensions

We're taught from childhood that space has length, width, and height — three dimensions. But in Lifechanyuan's cosmology, space has 36 dimensions, connecting 20 parallel worlds that coexist simultaneously throughout the universe.

These worlds each occupy distinct coordinates: - The human world where we live is just one of them - The Kingdom of Heaven, the Thousand-Year World, the Ten-Thousand-Year World, the Elysium World, the Celestial Islands Continent… all are real spaces - The ghost world and demon world each have their own coordinates too

All 20 parallel worlds connect to a single point — the Zero Point, also called the Cool Realm: the dwelling place of the Greatest Creator.

"What connects the 20 three-dimensional parallel universes turns out to be 0… 0 is the beginning and the end; all things depend on 0; without 0 there is no universe, without 0 there is no LIFE. 0 is the Greatest Creator."

Change Your Space, Change Your LIFE

One of Lifechanyuan's pivotal insights is this:

"For a person to change themselves and undergo transformation, they must change the space in which they are active."

This is not a metaphor — it is literal. Different spaces produce different physiological states, different modes of thinking, different conditions of existence. Entering the Second Home or reshaping one's environment is itself an act of shifting one's space-time layer — a form of cultivation.

Space-Time Tunnels: Passages Between Dimensions

Lifechanyuan describes two types of tunnels:

  • Time Tunnel (vertical): the passage to the past and the future
  • Space Tunnel (horizontal): the passage to other dimensions within the 36

Want to glimpse your past or future? Take the time tunnel. Want to visit the Kingdom of Heaven or the Elysium World? Take the space tunnel.

Fuzzy Space-Time: The In-Between Zone

As a person's cultivation deepens and they begin moving from earthly space-time toward higher LIFE spaces, they pass through a peculiar transitional zone — fuzzy space-time.

Neither fully of the human world nor yet arrived at the immortal realm, it is like wading through a murky swamp. This phase calls for Dharma protection: external support that acts like "the final straw that breaks the camel's back," helping the cultivator cross through the murk and reach the other shore.

Going Beyond Space-Time: The Ultimate Aim of Cultivation

Lifechanyuan teaches that transcending space-time requires neither qigong exercises nor medicine nor long retreats — only:

  1. Walking the Way of the Greatest Creator — letting consciousness range freely across all 36 dimensions
  2. Perfecting the antimatter structure of your spirit body — escaping time's grip at the root
  3. The Consciousness Entry Method — a practice anyone can begin immediately
  4. Entering the Second Home — completing the dimensional ascent through communal cultivation

And the destination?

"To become a celestial immortal and reach the Elysium World is to reach the peak of LIFE."

Beyond that lies the Celestial Islands Continent — the Greatest Creator's garden. Eighty billion islands, each roughly the size of the Earth, each home to a single celestial immortal, waiting for those who have cultivated their way from the human world into immortality.

In a Single Sentence

Space-time is the coordinate system of LIFE; understanding it is the first step toward transcending it — moving from three-dimensional earthly existence through 36 dimensions, until at last you merge with the Zero Point (the Greatest Creator) and arrive home in the Kingdom of Heaven.
