No. 19
The Complete Exclusion of All Suppositions with Respect to Objective Time
Paragraph 127
In phenomenology, we are not concerned with an objective time that might be thought of as existing independent of consciousness. So time in phenomenology is not a container in which our acts of consciousness fall into.
Consider for example a new-born child’s visual field. It sees a band of what lies before her. But the way that space is given to her has little to do with an objective space with no center of perspective. (194) Likewise for time. Also, our minds constitute the objects we see. They also constitute the time we experience. Hence in phenomenology we do not ask about some original objective time that our minds intuit. (195c)
