...doesn't get you to that. I think we might have a legit translation issue here. Not being aware of time is not what the term "timeless" refers to. A delta wing is timeless.
What is "delta wing"?
The triangular profile you see on so many flying things. From birds to earliest tech renditions to childrens paper gliders to cutting edge aerospace. Timeless. The term also refers to persistent aesthetic choices. Grandfather clocks are timeless - despite keeping time..you see?
What you're wondering about is chronoperception, not timelessness. "Souls" may be (or are implied to be) lacking in that area. A malfunctioning or non operative chronoperceptive apparatus would be a credible explanation for our inability to perceive the passage of time in such situations. Like a broken watch, lol.
