concept of kshana

The moment we decide, we enter that kind of body. One more important thing: Because we are so attached to the body and mind, we cannot live without a body for more than three kṣaṇas. The Saṃskṛit word 'kṣaṇa' does not mean 'seconds' or 'moments'. It does not measure chronological time. It is the gap between one thought and the next thought.
