Thats what I'm talking about. When a person says they "remember" nothing it would mean that there isn't anything to recall. We would be oblivious and not know the difference between a second and an eternity.
edit: However it is just that we can't recall it, doesn't mean nothing happened.
That is not the point we are trying to make.
Suppose a man says "I remember nothing of the time I was fast asleep", it indicates that the man was existing and his not knowing anything indicates that he knows that he knew nothing.
At any point of now, denying existence and awareness is not possible. To deny the self a self is required.
Take time please. This may seem illogical but examine whether the present can ever be obliterated with thoughts of past and future? To think about past and futre an aware self is required in the present.
