The experience of time is of identity in flow, the identical being split, separated from itself and unified, rejoined with itself, in the same standing motion, it is at once the splitting and the rejoining. If you take away the timeless identity then all would be flowing together and it is impossible to see how the sense of identity could arise in any but a superficial way. And if you said that it is as if there are two flows at different rates and the identical is a sort of standing interfence pattern between them, then, besides the fact that rate of flow is irrelevant to a fundamental flux, there would be no site within either flow to experience the standing 'wave', unless there were a third flow, and so on to infinity. This kind of infinite recursion is precisely the bad infinity that all such attempts to stabilise an overarching flux fall into. Admittedly the motivation for such a notion is strong because the mind, even as it reaches out towards identity, is repelled by it, since it destroys the very basis for thought or understanding as these are conceived. And besides, 'harmonic' notions of temporalisation make of it a sort of subtle epiphenomenon dancing on the surface of complex motions, but as such it would be fragile, destroyed, like a flame blown out by too much perturbation, but it is rather the opposite, tending to deepen enormously under such disruptions to its basis.
