Reflection is the movement of negation of nothing, that is without passing over to nothing, back to itself, thereby equating with itself. Movement in the sphere of being, that is, external, sensuous motion is the transition from determinate point to another point. While at one and the same moment moving something is both here and not here, considering two different moment, the second point is nothing in relation to first point as being. What is permanent during motion implies essence, in other words all relativity to what is external is sublated in the character of what is essential. For this reason, the movement of essence is from nothing to nothing.
Time is the expression of movement.
However, the movement of positing reflection does not imply time. Just as Being and Nothing are same as well as opposite and passes into each other in their unity, so too are the moments of reflection. Here, negative or other with respect to becoming is internal, namely the other of reflection is showing of essence itself. The determination of reflection, on the other hand, has taken its otherness back into itself. Like, production is immediately consumption and consumption is immediately production.
