Your concept of time does not of course change time itself, but it does force you to perceive actions in a certain manner. Much of this is the result of the limitations of the physical organism, but much more is the effect of the development of the ego, which attempts to set itself up and apart from action.
The inner self and the deeper layers of the subconscious are relatively free however from the ego’s false gods, and it is for this reason that precognitions are at all possible. For these layers of the self are simply able to perceive a larger portion of action than the ego is able or willing to perceive. As a rule, the ego will not even accept the information that is derived in such a manner, for to do so would be to deny those artificial precepts of continuity upon which it feels its dominance rests.

And physical reality, believe it or not, is not dependent upon the theory of time as a series of moments.
