i have experienced time-less situations. Experiences out of time or beyond time. That is breathtaking, and scary as fuck.

Originally posted by nefardec consider the possibility that there is no such thing as time, that time is a perceptual effect of physical and mental conditioning. Anyone who has dreamed or tripped or almost died knows what I am talking about. Theoretically 'being' in any time would be simply a matter of looking the right way.

i totally agree. the concept of "time" is a human (ego) created concept. plants and animals have no concept of past or future. BUT this isn't a spiritual discussion. rather, one of speculation on an outcome if time travel were possible.

how about instead of going "back" in time, traveling to a parallel world where all objects and events are the same, but are delayed by a certain amount of time.

i think the physicists disagree with you.

i havent read any research on plants and animals concepts of past and future, but i imagine there is probably SOME concept, even if it isnt the same concept, just looking at the matter from an evolutionary perspective.


i don't like to think of time in a linear way. It's convenient for getting places on time while I go about my mundane life, but when conceive of time itself, I don't think that there is such a thing as forward and backward movement along a continuum, but rather a pleroma potential worlds existing without time. as such i believe that the liberated mind may actuate any such potential simply by directing awareness of it.

I think the continuous flowing experience of time is more a trick of the mind similar to how we see a sequence of photographs as a moving picture, or how we interpret colors on a poster as flat regions when in fact they are super fast fluctuations of waves of light of different speeds.

i took a knot theory class taught by a physicist and computer scientist and he agreed with me after a discussion on hyperdimensionality that time is a perceptual phenomenon of the topology of the universe.

it was one of those eureka moments where i had a flash of insight, but sadly it went away and i could never understand it like i did in that instant

You pleb. What he said made perfect sense.

"I took a knot theory class taught by a physicist and computer scientist and he agreed with me after a discussion on hyperdimensionality that time is a perceptual phenomenon of the topology of the universe."

"I took a class where I tried to be really smart and just ended up looking like a wanker even though the professor agreed with me."

Seriously though his post was extremely clear.
