Before my methodical instruction about this experience which is shortly to follow, I would like to note as a prior clarification that the deep source of all our errors lies in the equating of immanent temporality with objective, concrete temporality—an equation which initially seems to press itself on us as self-evident.
…
Objective time is the extensional form of objective realities, and indeed primarily and authentically of physical nature, which extends through the real world as its structural basis. Mental lived experiences or processes <die seelische Erlebnisse>, in and of themselves, do not, therefore, either singly or combined into wholes, possess any concretely real uniting form <reale Einheitsform> of coexistence and succession of the type one finds in concrete and real spatiotemporality. The form of flowing, or of being in flux in the unity of a stream of consciousness which is proper to their nature is not an actual parallel form to this spatiotemporality. The image of a stream plays a trick on us. Intentional analysis of immanent temporality actually destroys this image and at the same time places its legitimate sense before us.
