The faster an object travels, as it approaches the speed of light, time goes more and more slowly. As the object reaches light speed, time stops.


There's a practice in Shintaido that can involve sprinting (though not quite at light speed!) or just taking a focused step forward, called eiko dai (big glory). Through the projection of the mind and/or body forward like a laser, there can be an inner experience, a sudden burst from speed to expansive stillness.
