Here is this infinite world, and what one claims as his possession will be left behind at death. Advaita Ashrama, Calcutta. The one peculiar attribute we find in time, space. and causation is that they cannot exist separate from other things. Try to think of space without colour, or limits, or any connection with the things around-just abstract space. It has to be connected with some object to have any existence.
Time depends on two events, just as space has to be related to outside objects.
And the idea of causation is inseparable from time and space. This is the peculiar thing about them that they have no independent existence. They have not even the existence which the chair or the wall has. They are as shadows around everything which you cannot catch. Thus we see, first, that the combination of time, space, and causation has neither existence nor non-existence.
