true simultaneity

[anagogy]

everything that can happen not only can happen but has happened and is happening at the same time

Everything is always in a state of "isness". Even the words "happening" and "happened" and "can happen" want to define a beginning and an end, which there isn't.

What you have is a spectrum of "isness", a complete matrix of all possibility. Every reality exists, and what we call time is really just the momentum of thought progression, or evolution, which is just comparing one state of change to another state of change. We call those states of change different things depending on our frame of reference, like "past" or "present" or "future". But mark my words, if there were no change, you could not know time, because time is simply a measure of change.

But its like a projector in many ways. All the images in the reel are there, its just whichever one we are currently playing that equals "now" for us. We could say the creator is simply that perspective which is looking at all the images in the reel at the same time. It's comprehensive awareness of all possibility, all infinity, all states of change, is precisely why it exists outside of time, and is therefore changeless and eternal.

The main problem with the projector analogy, however, is that it creates the idea of there being only one timeline. If we could somehow imagine a spherical projector reel, which somehow encompassed all possible images one could pass through on their spiritual journey from one point on this sphere to the another, we might have a slightly more accurate conception of how all realities past, present, and future may currently exist simultaneously, yet there still be free will.
