If time travel was possible, all it takes is for one person to travel back to, let's say, 5,000 years ago, over and over again. Has this time realm in which we live been broken down into a holodeck type realm where people, places, and events can be relived, remembered, and reawakened? Would an endless amount of dimensions and timelines get created as a result?
I remember reading an article a while back that talked about the drug 'dmt'. A professor who spent a lot of time researching the drug decided to go on a dmt trip and get the full experience of it. He felt like he had completely left his body and made his way into this room full of other beings. Most of the beings looked alien until he came across a man that looked like an Aztec from the 1400's. He was in a corner vomiting on himself and then looked up and noticed the professor. He nodded his head to the professor in respect and looked glad to see a fellow human.
Was this an actual encounter with someone from the past? Were they both in a certain state of consciousness where time doesn't exist and were able to communicate with each other? If so, what if in some way the professor was able to show the Aztec man that he was from the future? And what if the Aztec man told about his experience and what he saw to his people. Interesting indeed.
Time travel, if possible, seems much more like a consciousness thing than a physical thing.

A cynic who is time based, is screwed, but for an optimist, time is just a tool for perfecting his craft.

And English is presumably your first language and yet your punctuation and spelling is worse than his.
People in glasshouse...? Ring any bells?

Sounds a little 'deviant' when you put it that way though, not that I disagree, but...if you can see what I mean...it implies more polishing than perfecting...as a turn of phrasing...and on a number of levels...but by implication, it does change the overall meaning. Subtly mind, Chaucer-like, I suppose one might say.

To fear Time is to fear God, since both are One in the same. To fear God is to be stoopid, so to fear Time is to be stoopid as well.

To truly understand it's meaning, one must know that one is perfection in the process of perfecting itself.
So then comes the question, how does one perfect perfection?
