Benedict de Spinoza taught that the mind can enter a rare state of eternity, timelessness - not as a spirit enduring beyond the corpse, but as a mind collapsing into the eternal. How then should we treat time in our lives? What should time mean to us? Philosopher of mind and metaphysician Dr Peter Sjöstedt-H examines, through the lens of Spinozaism and psychedelic experience, our relationship to time.

Peter Sjöstedt-H is a philosopher of mind who specialises in the thought of Whitehead, Nietzsche, and Spinoza, and in fields pertaining to panpsychism and altered states of mind.
