What is the relationship between eternity and time?

Eternity is not the absence of time, but the depth of the moment where the timeless penetrates the temporal, awakening your innermost core.

— Osho
According to Osho, time is a horizontal line—A to B to C—where life moves toward death; eternity is vertical, a deepening from A to more A. They meet only in a rare, ripe moment of meditation, when your innermost core awakens. Then you stand at a crossroads, and the timeless penetrates the temporal, transforming ordinary duration into living presence.

Time is like a road you walk, eternity is like going deeper inside, and when you become very quiet within, they meet in the now.
