Something that happened in the passed yoctosecond is said to be the — PAST

Something that will happen in the next coming yoctosecond is — FUTURE

What can happen in between this past — future ?

Does PRESENT exists ?
Present does exist

For those in "no mind" state

Its an interesting thought.

I think "true present" does exist, but might be too short for us to experience, so I assume that one could at least make the argument that we don't experience this.

Maybe if you travelled at the speed of light you could experience it, but that is just speculation. Im not even sure we can experience the future, rather we all live in the past.

In the beginning me and God both were one with each other like; "Drop in sea and sea in drop"

So, If the question is; Sea/God's exisence is before-thought ? then the answer is YES
But, If the question is; My individual existence is before-thought ? then the answer is NO

NO BECAUSE

I am NOT God's thought.
I am thought which will cease to exsit if merge back into God.

Don't know anything about God so can't help you with that.

But I think perhaps you are thinking about it too much. :D

'Present' points to time. Are you sure time exists in that state?
More like "Being (present/aware)"
Lack of thoughts (future, past or present)

The moment we use words for "state beyond"
We understandably fail, the key is to read between te words, and Be, and Know in Silence

Me.

Can you prove that past and future actually exist?
NO

Past and future is just an illusion because of thyself.

Pull thyself from the timeline o----o-----o

o Your-past — o thyself — o Your coming future

——————— a blank timeline is left behind, or even a blank timline will also cease to exist.

Present does exist

For those in "no mind" state
An interesting thing is that "No-mind" state = "God"

Those in "No-mind" state, refrain using the word "Present"
Those in "No-mind" state, like using the word "God" :)

Those in the "No-mind" state have no use for words. ;)

If you read this article from 2019, although it talks of reversing time for an exquisitely brief but real interval, you can also read it as allowing the argument that physics says NOW is one ten billionth of a second thick.

Hence exists.
