Eternal Now is a concept of time perception suggested by some proponents of New Age spirituality. [1] Its characteristics vary from increased awareness of the present moment to a broader, more open and holistic perception of one's subjective past and potential variants of future. The concept is consonant with and constitutes an integration and development of a number of approaches to spiritual alertness and totality of perception advocated by various forms of Buddhist philosophy (in particular Zen Buddhism) [ citation needed], Shamanic practices, and other philosophical and spiritual directions, both ancient and contemporary. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Related terms used in various spiritual traditions and meditative practices include: restful alertness, total awareness, perception of here and now, as well as others.
