This postulate places consciousness as the ontological and phenomenological center of the experience of time. By affirming consciousness as the "universe clock," this postulate opens up space for the integration of physics, philosophy of consciousness, and adaptive systems studies in understanding temporal reality comprehensively.
3.4 Postulate 4: Fragmentation of Time Causes a Crisis of Meaning
The fourth postulate states that in modern life there is fragmentation of resonance between relative time and absolute time, which culminates in  of meaning existential, ethical, and ecological. When the harmonious relationship between consciousness and absolute time is broken or fragmented, the experience of time loses continuity and depth, resulting in chaos in various aspects of human life and civilization.
3.4.1 Time Fragmentation: Definition and Manifestations
Resonance Fragmentation
The resonance between consciousness and absolute time is shattered into disjointed and asynchronous fragments of temporal experience, producing a sense of alienation from the whole and meaningful flow of time.
Manifestation in Modern Life
This fragmentation is reflected in various phenomena, such as the acceleration of social time, the loss of natural rhythms, the disintegration of historical narratives, and rapid technological change that breaks the continuity of human experience.
3.4.2 Existential Crisis
Losing the Meaning of Time
Individuals experience restlessness and emptiness due to the inability to align their experience of time with a broader, more eternal context.
Temporal Disorientation
A fragmented sense of time triggers feelings of alienation, stress, and existential anxiety, which in turn impacts mental health and well-being.
3.4.3 Ethical Crisis
The Break with Absolute Time
Modern ethics, which often focuses on short-term results and pragmatic gains, loses its solid moral foundation, because it is not connected to the broader and eternal dimension of time.
