I didn’t take it as such.
When you meditate a lot you begin to have a different perspective on time.
You can begin to see that it isn’t as static and it’s not in a straight line as most seem to think it is.
I wouldn’t be surprised if 4D has a whole new set of rules concerning time.
That is part of a partial theory of mine that the reason we sometimes see ghosts, seemingly from another time period - IMO it isn’t because that person has been stuck on the earthly realm for hundreds of years, but rather they are free of the time constraint that we in this dimension and body are forced to obey.
I have been thinking about this post where you mentioned time. I will try to explain how time and space can be integrated.
Usually we regard time and space as separate. We know that time exists and we can describe it. Usually we think of linear cause and effect as described by Newtonian physics, aka classical physics. Classical physics deals with macroscopic objects. Then there is quantum physics that deals with microscopic objects. Quantum physics has a completely different set of rules and inner logic that butts head with Classical physics.
But then on the other hand, physicists such as Rupert Sheldrake try to show that time is an illusion and that certain exotic phenomena such as retrocausality is what we should be paying attention to. Freethinkers of quantum physics emphasize that mental powers - thoughts and feelings - govern quantum mechanical effects. Mainstream quantum physics is rather occupied with fancy mathematical equations and takes the view that many quantum physical phenomena can be accurately described by mathematics.
One way to view space-time is time sequence photography. Notice especially that the movements of the biker makes the image blurry. This also happens if you set high quality on a digital camera. Because it takes longer for the microprocessor to process the data from the lens, any movements by objects become blurry in the image. In old photographs, e.g. 19th century, people look stiff. That is because photographing was expensive and they tried not to move when taking a picture of their family which happened, perhaps, once every five years.
Time sequence photography
Another way to view time is a grid of paths on a 2-D map as described by Tom Montalk (pictures below). Given that the present is all that exists, past and future exist as past memories and future plans. Because 3D is a solid dimension, you only see one image of the present. This corresponds to a photograph where nothing moves during the exposure.
Let us integrate time and space. For simplicity, we integrate only one timeline using linear time. This assumes that there is one past and one future. Now you obtain what is seen in the picture of the map below. That is a simplistic view of 3D time.
If we think of time as being flexible, you can change the past and the future. This corresponds to the pin needles on the image that you move as you wish. In 3D, you can change time with effort using the Law of Attraction. In 4D, you see the entire timeline at once and can change it as you wish. As such, you see the blurry picture of time sequence photography always.
In 5D, you see all alternate timelines. This is more complex to illustrate. It is difficult for us to visualize too many different past and future scenarios at once. Imagine that we have 3 separate timelines. In the time sequence photography, this would correspond to riding the bike 3 times in a row. Now there are 3 blurry pictures. Then, integrate all those blurry pictures and you have 3 different timelines. I think that this describes the point. In the map, this corresponds to 3 unique red lines. If you integrate all timelines, this corresponds to seeing all possible combinations of red lines at once.
This is my interpretation from reading the following excepts from Zingdad.com:
"4d"
"The fourth dimension is time. From your personal perspective you could say your 4d body would be a long snake-like form. It begins quite small at the tail with a new born baby. Then moment by moment it grows longer and larger as you grow to be a young boy. Then it gets to its full girth as you become a young man. Longer and longer it gets with each day that passes for you. Its cross-section shape is your body at any given moment. So, though it ceases to get much taller after you became a young man it may well get somewhat wider as you progress into your middle years. The longer you live, the longer this snake grows. Maybe you can imagine it a little like a loaf of bread: each moment of your life is one slice and each slice is your whole 3d body. Moment-upon-moment the snake grows longer and longer until it eventually ends with the death of your body.
From your perspective you live a linear life from beginning to end forming one long snake-like body."
[...]
"5d"
"5d is an “expansion” or a “projection” of 4d. Let us use you as an example. There are many things you could have been, could have done, could have experienced but chose not to. You feel you are living the life of all the things you did choose and al the things you didn’t choose don’t exist. Well, on some level they do exist. On some level every single choice that could ever have been offered to you was taken and every single outcome to all those choices was experienced. And that level is the 5th dimension."
"
In the 3rd dimension you are living one life with one set of choices. At 4d you are the whole of that time-line from birth to death. In the 5th dimension you are a cloud of potentiality in which all the probable and possible choices you could have taken exist simultaneously. Your 5d body is a cloud through which you could plot any number of possible time-lines. The choices that are closest to your Soul’s intent are nearer the centre of the cloud. That is where the most energy is expended. That is where you will find the most Life and the most vitality. The closer you, the 3d expression, are to this centre core, the more vital and energetic you will be and the more “flow” you will find in your life. You will feel more “right” about what you are doing and things will be easier to do. Move towards the outer limits of the cloud and you will experience hardship and a decrease in personal energy and vitality. As you approach the edge of the cloud where your Soul ceased to express itself so you will cease to be able to function. You won’t be able to go there. If you persist in trying you will experience a termination of the incarnation."

Let me add a couple of points. First, Zingdad also describes from the POV of 6D and 7D that you can read about in the link. Let me just say that time-space as discussed in popular TV programs and films means time from a 4D POV or maybe a simplistic 5D POV. You can make it a whole lot more complex if you want to.
Second, I am describing this from a Western POV. For example, in some languages, verbs lack past and future tenses. There is only the present.
Thirdly, we are still in the Matrix and it has its own rules of space-time imposed on us. Before the Matrix was started, I suppose that space-time were more flexible.
So, I have been trying to integrate time and space into higher dimensions. I think that everything is patterns in the end. I found this page that describes a
4D space-time in the shape of a torus. This in turn makes me think of sacred geometry. I have not studied sacred geometry, so I do not know what else to to show except this picture and text that I found.
Enjoy the reading:
The Torus of Space and Time
8: With a shape. Can you picture a torus?
Z: Yes. A donut-shape is called a torus.
8: That’s one kind of torus. I’d like you to imagine a shape that is halfway between a donut and an apple. Like an apple it is more-or-less round. It is slightly flattened at the top and bottom where it dimples inwards. Like a donut there is a hole that goes right through where the apple core would be. But the difference is that the hole tapers from both the top and bottom so that it meets in the middle at a point.
Z: Yes, I can imagine that.
8: Good. For what it’s worth, this is called a Horn Torus. And if you can imagine such a shape, then you are holding in your mind an image of the 4th dimension of the universe you currently inhabit.
The form of your universe is, at the 4th dimension, equivalent to the surface of a horn torus.
Perhaps this seems like a purely academic thought, but it has some striking implications that will actually give you access to insight and answers to some of the fundamental conundrums with which cosmologists at this point are still wrestling.
The difficulty that arises for anyone on earth that would ponder the nature of your universe is that you are 3 dimensional beings, living in, what appears to be, a 3 dimensional universe. It is nearly impossible for you to discern the form and nature of the 4th dimension and beyond. But coming to these understandings is what will allow you to begin to understand your own true nature and your place in creation. And that is what we will be doing in this conversation.
Z: Wow, okay! I look forward to having you explain that!
8: Good. But before we proceed, I want to make sure that everyone who reads this is on the same page with us, as regards this very special shape. So I am going to place an image in your mind and ask you, please, to find a way to draw that for our readers.
Z: Okay (I get the image), got it. That shouldn’t be too hard... (I go away and do some graphics work and then…).
Okay… what do you think of this?
8: Not a bad job at all. So, what you have there is a 2-dimensional picture showing a 3-dimensional object that represents a 4-dimensional surface. So it’s a nice picture, but please understand: it’s just a representation. The trick is to extract the understandings implicit in that representation without getting too attached to the universe actually
looking like that from your 3-dimensional perspective.
Z: Okay. So, 8, if I understand you correctly then you are saying that the 4th dimensional form of the universe is represented by the surface of this torus. How so?
8: Yes. Let’s get into that. The first thing to be aware of, when looking at that image, is that you are looking at a representation of all of space and time right there in front of you. If you look at a normal map you look at a representation of a piece of land, right? Well imagine you could see a map that showed you that piece of land from the beginning of time to the end. Now imagine you can look at a map that shows you the whole universe for all of time. That is what you are looking at when you look at this illustration all of space and all of time represented in one picture.
If you travel
inside the 4th dimension, as you currently are, you do so in a time-like fashion. The easiest way for me to explain that concept is to begin with the bright light at the centre of the torus. See that? That is the universal singularity and is also where the event commonly known as the “Big Bang” occurs.
[...]
The Universal NOW
All the matter, energy and light that you are able to perceive (directly or indirectly) is exactly the same age. Everything, from the matter in your own body, to the light that comes from the most distant of galaxies, was all expelled in the same moment from the singularity. You can only see (or in any other ways perceive) matter, energy or light that was expressed from the singularity at the exact moment that the matter that makes up your body was expressed.
Z: I don’t get that.
8: Stay with me. This is quite interesting and quite important. When you get what I am trying to tell you, you’ll understand something quite fundamental to the concept of space and time being the same thing.
The easiest is for me to give you another image; a very small variation of the first one. Here we go…
Z: (I get the image and draw it). Okay… How’s this:
8: Yes, that’s the idea. Now here is where it gets interesting.
One of those lines - the one around the middle of the torus - represents the whole of the universe that you can interact with right now. Everything that you can see, or in any other way experience in each moment, is inside that one line. That line is one moment thick. And when you consider that a moment is one flicker of time and that each flicker is many trillionths of a second in duration, then you understand that this line is very, very, very thin indeed. And every single thing that exists within your universe is inside that line.
Z: There is a line just trillionths of a second thick and the whole observable universe exists inside it?!?
8: From the 4D perspective, yes, that is so. The universe you inhabit started out as a pulse of energy some 14 billion light years back at the singularity. It all started as a single point. Then, with its first moment of expansion, it became, on our horn torus, a very, very small little circular line around the inside of the horn. As the universe has expanded, so the circle has expanded; growing bigger and moving up the horn of the torus. The rate of expansion has been steadily increasing and so the circle has been getting bigger and bigger, faster and faster.

densities, dimensions and time if you want to:
