No one can deny that every organism's "past" and "future" (perhaps for humans only) is real. These concepts can be derived mainly from "temporal scalar labels," from measurements and predictions which are scientifically very sound. This "soundness" means that such measurements can be reproduced by someone else, at some other place, at some other time and with remarkable accuracy. Therefore we MUST begin our definition with time, or its symbol, the variable "t," and build, adding recent suggestions of biophysics, namely that humans may be the only organisms on Earth to have evolved substantial future concepts. So our mystery must include a larger group of ideas for which a variable to represent all time, here so designated "TIME," has a more comprehensive, real and reproducible meaning.

We start with a physical concept of "Now Time." The experimental discovery of "Rhythm Based Time, RBT," defined as: "The Perception of Lateness Relative to OnTimeness" has indicated that "RBT" is biophysically different than "time t." The novel "Real, Rhythm Based Time," which is used in communications, under low stress conditions, for the encoding of information by humans and several, possibly all, species of other organisms, is always in the present!

So how do we enlarge the model of "Conventional time t?"

We must firstly think of "Now Time," as one cycle or less of "RBT," and then assign its measurement to the circumference of an "Event Space Sphere Or Spheroid" (acronym "Essos," pronounced "Eee-sauce"), the "Now" in our minds.

Once we achieve this experimentally (as has been done, mainly with humpbacks and others of "The Great Whales") we can now let temporal measurements within the sphere be related to the perception of real now events.

"Now Time" cycles in one's present from "OnTime" to "OffTime," and back again to "OnTime," and is contained within the "Event Space Sphere" ("Essos") of one's mind. This is an important new concept meaning the extent of the three "Orthogonal Spacial Dimensions, (OSDs)," which momentarily contain all events now, of one's "Mental Thought Processes, MTPs" (or conscious mind). For example if you intently listen to a radio a meter away, then your "Event Space" is roughly 2 meters in diameter. If then you become aware of an aircraft at 10 km, your "Essos" expands to roughly 20 km in diameter. Each perceived event orients your event space so that mass and/or energy coming FROM one's future, enters at an arbitrarily named "Essos South Pole," with part (or all) leaving at one's north pole, but some perhaps leaving to "one's past" (memory and/or unconscious mind). "Now Time" is defined and measured on one's "Essos Equator," in one's "Now TIME."

All events are associated with energy and/or mass vectors and those occurring outside one's "Essos" are by definition not in one's "Now Time." Also associated with such vectors are temporal scalar labels of "Conventional time t" called "timetags," which are in fact the very numbers that we have been using to measure "Conventional time," in all fields. These "temporal scalar labels" are often numbers which are transported by mass and/or energy vectors.

From "one's future," such labelled vectors enter one's "Event Space Sphere" or mind, and it is then that the said energy and/or mass penetrates ones present awareness and the "temporal scalar labels" become additionally associated with "Now Time." Upon leaving one's "Now Time," some scalar labels become part of one's memory, knowledge, education and understanding, "one's past." The transition occurs when the organism, (always at the centre of its "Event Space Sphere") switches internal mental processing from one set of associated "Now Time" vectors representing a distinct event, to another set, as for example a "conscious thought change." Temporal scalar labels outside of one's "Event Space Sphere" (both one's past and future) are valid labels, valid numbers, valid memories, valid plans, but they have not the "reality of nowness," and of Real "Now TIME."

One's mind has a "Mental Thought Process, MTP," (of one's "conscious mind"), which can "transduce" incoming signals in "Conventional time Ct or t" (future-to-past) information, into "RhythmicTime RT or T" (coded "informaTion"), which is the suggested Quantum Mechanical form of active thought processes ("MTPs"). Mind can also use a system of "MEmory Detection And Retrieval," ("Medar," pronounced "Maa-dar") to recall past events, so that they can become one's "Now TIME."

Dr Hitoshi Kitada, at the University of Tokyo, Japan, has recently advanced the concept of "Now TIME," and has mathematically linked Quantum Mechanics and Relativity Theory to an internal mental ("local") form of "Rhythm Based Time (RBT, or RT)," called "KitadaTime, KT." The "transduction formula is <"KT" = exp(-itH(+/-2pi)/h)> where "t" is "Conventional time," "H" is a "Local Hamiltonian Operator" and "h" is the Planck constant. Notice that "KT" is bidirectional. Thus "Conventional time t or Ct" seems mentally transduced, by a proposed "fifth force," expressed by the function "{i(+/-2pi)H}," where "i" rotates the information (in quanta) from sensory transducers, onto an "orthogonal, real plane," "+/-2pi" spins the quanta bidirectionally, and "H" is a Hamiltonian that converts "Conventional time Ct" into "KitadaTime, KT" for thought analysis.

Thus, the proposed "carrier" of unconscious "informaTion" is "KitadaTime, KT".

"RhythmicTime, RT" can be formally defined as: "The Perception of Lateness Relative to OnTimeness (or relative to an RT-synchronization between entities)." For communication, if two minds perceive an event at the same "RhythmicTime" then this is "RT-synchronization" (or "SynchronizaTion"), which can be used to define OnTime. Secondly, "RBT or RT" can be experimentally verified, and is the basis of CETA-Researche's discoveries in human-animal communications.

All "Real TIME" is in the present mind of an organism, for any diameter of its "Event Space Sphere Or Spheroid (Essos)." It consists of "Conventional time (t or Ct)" + "RhythmicTime, RT" (which is "KitadaTime, KT" locally, inside of mind) where "RT" is "The Perception of Lateness Relative to SynchronizaTion," and "KT" is a new characteristic of mental "Essos InformaTion."
