I don't recall saying that they weren't the same thing. However, one would think that if they were the exact same thing Ra would have called them the exact same thing, which they did not. Space/time is the inverse of time/space.
Ra has stated that time/space represents the metaphysical side of things and space/time represents the physical side of things. They are reflections. But even a in a reflection the image reflected is a reversal of the true image. The material world is a reflection of the immaterial world. So the question becomes: if space/time and time/space are reflections, then what are they being reflected on, and also which is the reflection, and which is the thing being reflected?
The answer is that the mirror is the self. Mind is looking in the mirror (self reflecting), and matter is the reflection in the mirror. Mind is the inner time/space aspect and matter is the outer space/time aspect (the reversal of the inner perspective into an outer perspective). Self is the boundary between inner and outer.
Also, I'm not aware of any part of the Ra material where they say the parts are equal. The only thing I am aware of is that Ra has said that every time/space is an analog of a particular sort of space/time, which doesn't negate anything I've said in the slightest. But if you can provide a quote saying they are equal, I'd be interested to read it. In a sense they are equal, I suppose, but as I said before, the image being reflected is inverted, so narrow inner expression results in broad outer expression.
