Change is the perception of sequence such as the movement of the Sun in the sky. This illusion of movement is due to the memory capturing the position of the Sun and comparing it to its previous positions in the sky relative to the landscape. Time is the illusion of movement created by the mind.

Hello ayar415.

Is it fair to say that in your example the change observed--i.e.--the sun moving across the sky--has been incorrectly attributed to the sun moving rather than to the earth rotating?

Hello BigJohn.

If the thought that "change" requires "time" is accepted, --is there perhaps another component to add to this relationship??

Venturing into wild imagining:-

If gravity is imagined as a longing propensity that all which is to return/restore to a single state/point? of origin, then such a longing cannot be fulfilled without "change" ?

And so, in this wild imagining, there appears to be a relationship between gravity/time/change which links these together in a three way interdependence?--and perhaps there are further components to add to this interdependence?
