Time is unlimited, nitya. The past, present and future are due to this body. But the soul is ever existing; it has no past, preset or future. Just like the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, who is the only one that remembers our past lives, knows the results of our present activities as well as our future.

If Kṛṣṇa, the form of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, were māyā, material, as the impersonalists consider Him to be, then like the living entity He would change His body and forget everything about His past life. Anyone with a material body cannot remember his past life, nor can he foretell his future life, nor can he predict the outcome of his present life; therefore he cannot know what is happening in past, present and future. Unless one is liberated from material contamination, he cannot know past, present and future. (Bhagavad-gītā 7.26)

Kṛṣṇa is the Absolute Truth. Relative truth is not truth in all the three phases of eternal time. Time is divided into past, present and future. Kṛṣṇa is Truth always, past, present and future. In the material world, everything is being controlled by supreme time, in the course of past, present and future. But before the creation, Kṛṣṇa was existing, and when there is creation, everything is resting in Kṛṣṇa, and when this creation is finished, Kṛṣṇa will remain. (Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.2.26)
