Indeed. Not only that, but it can be a lived experience. One sees that the need for something called "time" is actually an invention of the mind, and totally unnecessary. I know this sounds bizarre and like mystical woo-woo, but w

You certainly don't need a grad degree to understand the math behind entanglement or basic QM!
