KAIROS - the spirit of time
In our hectic world where the pace of progress is ever-quickening, life seems to be rushing by; we lack the space and time for leisure, to contemplate things and to take an inward look at ourselves. We crave those rare moments more and more when time seems to stand still, moments of fulfilled and fulfilling time. The Greeks called this moment in time "Kairos", removed from the law of decay and
opening up the dimension of growth.
"Kairos" is the moment in time when opposites meet and contradiction evaporates. It is the moment of turnaround, of change and of building bridges. An island juts out from the perpetual stream of time, bringing us closer to the meaning of life - the connection with ourselves and the world around us. With this thought, we feel connected to "Kairos - the spirit of time".
There are moments in our life when time and space become deeper. And the feeling of existence extends infinitely. (Charles Baudelaire)
The blessedness of a moment prolongs life for a thousand years (Japanes proverb)
To be in control of the present is to be in control of your life (Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach)
