I didn't hear him but I heard that Einstein said that "Time was Nature's way of keeping everything but happening at once..." That is time in its garb as linear, sequential. But there is another sense of time, several as I experience it. Another one is synchronistic, a fine term coined by Dr. Carl G. Jung, to describe a series of events occurring at pretty much one and the same time, or in fairly rapid succession, all of which seem inter-related and inter-connected in some ways that appear to defy probability or ordinary logic, as though everything in the Universe is mysteriously and finely connected in ways that ordinary consciousness cannot fathom on that very same level.

Then there is the idea of multi-dimensionality of time, that it exists with different sensibilities in different, respective dimensions, suggesting the notion of parallel universes. While we're making a God-awful mess of this one, there exists another one, at least a probable one, parallel to this one, into which we could likely hop if we could gather enough metaphysical momentum in one moment.
