The now-moment is believed privileged because now is when happening is experienced: Commentary on BBS target article: Thinking in and about time, by Hoerl and McCormack

Abstract

Hoerl and McCormack (H&M) risk misleading about the cognitive underpinnings of the belief in a privileged now-moment because they do not explicitly acknowledge that the sense of existing in the now-moment is an intrinsically temporally dynamic one. The sense of happening that is exclusive to the now-moment is a better candidate for the source of belief in a privileged now.
