Is Experience Continuous or Made of Discrete Moments?

"Does life consist of continuous moments or discrete, separate moments of experience? Rupert says: ‘When you’re watching a film, there are numerous discrete frames . . . but we don’t experience a movie as numerous discrete, still shots. The movie has a continuity to it . . . Where does the oneness of the movie come from? It’s the screen. It’s the screen that is the continuous element in the always changing images . . . It’s exactly the same with our experience . . . What is the continuous element in all experience? It is consciousness. Consciousness is the screen, the ever present screen, on which the intermittent experiences come and go.’"
