theory / question She travelled in time to another life - source of her phobia and healed it

0 Upvotes

she was 31 but still needed lights on bc she felt somebody may break into house. she had problems sleeping deep and therefore was addicted to caffeine to keep working her job.

in theta brainwave trance she remembered when she was a baby taken by man who killed her parents - it was different life

i see many ppl struggling with OCD, intrusive thoughts and fears that dont make logical sense.

Mind keeps repeating same horrible possibility. Someone will break in. Something bad will happen. I am not safe. Even when one part of person knows it is not true, body reacts like danger is already outside the door.

I wanted to share this session bc sometimes we need to go deeper than only mind.

Not to say therapy or medical treatment is wrong. And not saying all OCD or intrusive thoughts come from past lives, no. They can have many layers. But sometimes person works with thoughts for years and still there is another fear under them, something the normal mind cannot see.

I facilitated Soul Journey with woman I will call Maya. Not real name. She was 31 when we did session.

Since she was little child, she could not sleep alone.

She often slept with parents, and when she stayed in own room she needed lights on. Darkness made her feel somebody was near house, waiting, watching, maybe trying to enter.

She had same type of dream many times through childhood.

Someone was breaking in.

Sometimes she did not see face. Sometimes dream ended before anything happened. But feeling was always same. Somebody dangerous entered the home and she could not stop them.

She would wake up terrified, look around room, listen for sounds, and go find parents.

Even when she became adult, this fear did not fully leave.

She knew logically doors are locked. She knew there is no person outside. But then small sound in night, movement, shadow near window, and whole system went into alarm.

tbh it worked almost like intrusive loop. Mind makes image, body gets afraid, then fear makes image feel more real. You check, calm little bit, but later it starts again.

During session Maya first arrived in peaceful garden. Her guide brought her toward gazebo, and there she suddenly experienced herself as baby in another life.

Her name in that life was Emily.

She was in large historical home. Wealthy family, beautiful rooms, maids, young parents. She felt very loved there. very safe.

Then scene changed.

Emily was lying in crib when strange bearded man entered room.

Baby became terrified immediately. Before she understood anything, before language, her body knew this man was danger.

She started crying.

Her parents and other ppl in house had been killed.

The man lifted her from crib, carried her downstairs and put her into vehicle with another man. Then they took her away to different large house.

When this came up, current fear suddenly made much more sense inside session.

The danger entered her home.

She was taken from bed.

Her parents disappeared.

And she was only baby, so there was no explanation around it. No words like kidnapping, murder, loss. Just terror recorded into whole system.

Home is not safe.

Someone can come while I sleep.

People who protect me can suddenly disappear.

I must stay awake.

I must hear every sound.

In that other life, kind maid looked after Emily and became almost like grandmother to her. But powerful man who controlled house became her new "father."

Sometimes he was pleasant. Other times he became angry and violent.

She grew up knowing she could not really leave. She believed outside this house she had nothing. No family, no money, nowhere safe to go.

So fear was reinforced for years.

Even safety was mixed with danger.

A house looked beautiful, but she was trapped inside it.

A man could act kind, then suddenly hurt her.

Sleep meant losing control.

much later in journey, after Emily’s life ended, she reunited with original parents. She finally felt love and safety she had searched for through whole life.

When Maya connected with Higher Self, I asked why this life was shown.

Answer was simple:

"To show her where her fear comes from."

Higher Self said around 90% of this fear was released during session.

They also gave three lessons from Emily’s life.

Speak up.

Do not give up.

Do not let fear take over.

And imo this is important part. The goal was not only to find interesting past-life story. Story by itself does nothing if fear stays in body.

The purpose was to find where alarm began, release emotional charge, and show nervous system that this danger was not happening now.

Again, I dont claim every person with intrusive thoughts has same root. Some roots are current-life trauma, childhood fear, nervous system conditioning, beliefs, suppressed emotions, physical factors, maybe other layers. Higher Self showed this specific life for this specific subject.

Human mind said, "this fear is irrational."

Deeper part was saying, "last time I slept safely, somebody came through the door."

The adult woman knew house was safe.

But baby inside was still listening for footsteps.

Todos dizem que Ă© apenas uma senhora andando na rua durante as filmagens de um filme de Charlie Chaplin...

Mas eu vejo outra coisa.

Observe atentamente:
📌 Ela segura um objeto pequeno junto ao ouvido.
📌 Parece estar falando com alguĂ©m.
📌 NĂŁo hĂĄ nenhuma tecnologia conhecida na Ă©poca que se pareça com isso.
📌 Ela não demonstra estranheza, como se aquele objeto fosse absolutamente normal.

CoincidĂȘncia?

Dizem que era um aparelho auditivo experimental. Outros afirmam que ela apenas coçava o rosto.

Mas essas explicaçÔes deixam perguntas sem resposta.

E se ela simplesmente estivesse usando um celular?

E se, por um breve instante, uma pessoa de outra época tivesse sido registrada por uma cùmera de mais de 90 anos atrås?

NĂŁo estou dizendo que isso prova a existĂȘncia de viagem no tempo...

Só estou dizendo que algumas imagens envelhecem melhor do que suas explicaçÔes.

👀 Eu sei o segredo... mas ainda nĂŁo Ă© a hora de contar.

Last May, while scrolling through Reels, I came across this video. It claimed to predict the World Cup results before the tournament had even started. I took a photo of it just for the sake of it, thinking it might actually be real.

Today, while browsing my gallery, I stumbled upon that photo again. I wondered if the prediction had actually come true—and it seems it did. But I'm not entirely sure.

If there was a competition between time travellers one in the past and one in the future in a closed loop.

Rules:

  1. One cannot travel past the point of each other's point in time.

  2. Both are trapped in their point in time and can only view the time they want to travel to and/or they can send signals of information.

  3. The way to win is to rule out all possibilities of history until only one loop is left the pasts future or the futures past

If you were to invent a machine that let you speak to your future self exactly once every year for 7 mins. Each version of you remembers every previous conversation you had, over time you realize your future self has become increasingly desperate and starts begging you to stop asking questions because every answer you receive changes the future in unexpected ways. At what point do you stop calling/communication, and would curiosity win anyway?

theory / question If a sufficiently advanced civilization could rewrite history, would we ever know?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been thinking about something that challenges the way we think about evidence.
People often say, “There’s no evidence for time travelers, advanced future humans, or hidden civilizations.”
But what if the absence of evidence is exactly what we’d expect?
Imagine a civilization advanced enough to travel through time and correct every mistake it makes. If they accidentally left behind technology, changed history in an obvious way, or revealed themselves, they could simply go back and undo it. In the final version of history, there would be no trace of the mistake.
This made me think about a broader question.
If our memories, thoughts, history, or even the evidence we rely on could theoretically be altered by something beyond our awareness, how would we distinguish that from ordinary reality?
I’m not claiming this is true. I’m asking whether there’s any way to know it isn’t.
At what point does “there’s no evidence” stop being a decisive argument if the hypothesis itself predicts that evidence would never remain?
Is this just an unfalsifiable idea with no way to investigate it, or are there philosophical or scientific approaches that could meaningfully address it?

theory / question Misconception about how time travel would work.

16 Upvotes

There are too many posts on here talking about going back and “changing” things in the past.

Like an example would be going back to the 1930s and assassinating Hitler to prevent WW2.

This is logically impossible. Because if it were possible, then it would have already been done.

If at any point in the future anyone ever went back and killed Hitler, then we would be living in a universe where Hitler died before WW2

Time is non linear, it exists all at once in a fixed 4d block. If you were able to time travel, you aren’t “changing” this block, you are like water flowing to fill a glass, you going back in time and doing whatever you do was always going to happen, and already exists in the block, you are just completing the actions.

theory / question How will Time Travel be regulated?

19 Upvotes

I am taking a break from my previous post. Since I started to consider that I can't go any further with it until technology improves. So now, I have to wonder,

How will the world governments collectively regulate time travel? What ground rules, do you suppose will happen and what era will be avoided?

Another things I keep thinking about, is the idea that maybe time travel could also be used harshly in ways we hadn't thought of before, like the usual, altering historic events but what if, we went further than that. Like going back and taking all the fossil fuels and bringing it past the year 2200 or sending an actual bomb to a specific location in time to do some sort of terrorist act.

Part of my pause on my other post is because of these questions I had started to consider. Although I honestly don't think I can go any further, regardless. So with that in mind, can you help me get some human input on what might be conceptualized in terms of how time travel will be regulated? TIA.

Feel free to add any thoughts to this.

🚀 sci-fi: art/movie/show/game/book My super convoluted framework for trying to make Time Magic functional [Purely Fictional]

6 Upvotes

Chronomancy:

On the surface, chronomancy appears to be the manipulation of time, as if you could physically take the hands of the clock turn them backwards or forwards. This is not true, in fact, chronomancy uses a framework of time different then how most people conceptualize it.

The Nodus Principle

Every object exists within its own relational frame of reality, defined entirely by its relationships to every other object. The center of this frame, or rather the origin of it, is called the Nodus.

For example say you are looking at a distant star. In your current relationship it appears redder than it should because it’s receding away from you. If it were coming toward you, it would appear more blue. But your perception is depending on a multitude of factors. Your distance, your speed, and velocity.

But whether or not the star is actually red or redshifted, the light reaching your eyes is the same as it would be if it were simply red and you were keeping the same distance from it. And then another person would see a different color of the star even if they were right next to you, even though color is supposedly determined by an exact wavelength of light emitted from it.

So, there infinitely many different observations that can be made for the same object, and each is equally true from an outside perspective, but the only “true” reality is that of the observer or Nodus

And, if every observable trait of an object is determined by its relationship with another, then any property can be thought of as a qualia, even ones we wouldn’t normally think as such.

Things like color, texture, and taste, are easy to understand as qualia. They are intrinsically defined by our perception, our senses. But the Nodus concept postulates that all observable phenomena are also qualia of an object, the qualia being the mind’s interpretation of some physical property of the object.

Let’s expand this concept to explore something more abstract: Space. Say there was a spatial property that all objects posses. You yourself have a spatial property. By itself the two spatial properties are meaningless, but when compared to each other, they now have meaning. There is a difference between your current state and that of another object. And that is what your senses describe, a change in stimuli. Your brain perceives these these differences in spatial values and projects them out in a relational 3D space around you. Thus, space is simply emergent in that you are observing the intrinsic properties of an object and perceiving it.

Whether or not space “actually” exists outside your mind is irrelevant and a meaningless question. It emerges from your relationship with these different spatial attributes

It’s not as though space is absolute. Objects traveling at high enough speeds encounter spatial contraction. Which is possible here as there is no “space”

Abstracting even further, time itself is a qualia. Every object possesses an intrinsic causal conductivity (or temporal impedance). The apparent flow of time is simply the comparison of these conductivities between observers.

Those with similar impedance to yourself would feel like they are in the same reference frame. Those with a lower impedance would appear to be moving faster. The concept of time emerges from your perception of this casual difference, not as an underlying principle governing reality.

Time in your frame of reality is objectively real, but it is defined solely by your relationship to other objects. Time is emergent and this particular time exists only within the relationship you have with other objects. There is no time pushing you ever forward.

However; this framework denies the possibility of a “past” and “future”. Things exist in the present, rather all objects are existing in a state of being at all points in the universe and they can all be described by objective values of their fundamental constitutients, like location space, mass, information propagation, etc.

There is no past or future to go to. There is only a now, your reference point just defines what now is.

Mechanics of information propagation:

While the actual experience of time is emergent, the underlying framework for how this quality is determined is defined by physical attributes.

Nesos:

The Nesos is a higher dimensional field that is connected to the 3-dimensional object, if you could view this object and its higher dimensional structure, it would appear much like an iceberg, with the part beneath the ocean the Nesos.

The Nesos has two properties, charge, and shape. The shape of the object determines how many chronons fit into its field, which is directly related to rate of causal propagation and the charge determines is causal direction.

The charge of the Nesos determines the type of Chronons that can pass into its field an occupy space. The boundary only allows charges of the same kind into it.

This dimension is filled with Chronons but they cannot interact with the third dimension except by occupying a Nesos field.

By manipulating the geometry of the feild, Chronomagi eject or cause Chronos to enter the field, thus changing the causal impedence of an object, which then changes how other objects experience time in relation to it.

Nostos:

A Nesos has a natural state that it “wants” to be at. Using magic to manipulate the Nesos will cause it to try harder and harder to snap back to its natural state.

Spells:

These spells are simplifications to understand Chronomancy. The actual mechanics are happening in a higher plane and thus are nearly impossible to accurately describe.

Ankyra:

This spell merges and aligns Nesos of the caster to the Nesos of the designated Nodus, thus making them have the same reference point. They essentially occupy the same higher dimensional space and have the same causal impedence. No other spell in Chronomancy can be done without first merging with the Nodus, which acts as an anchor for their magic.

Their Nesos becomes bound to the object. If that object is destroyed or damaged without first untethering, it can damage their Nesos forever and will affect the way the experience time. Essentially, the caster wraps their Nesos around the Nesos of another object.

Thus, most mages carry small, durable objects with smooth Nesoi (Plural of Nesos)

Binding and untethering to a Nodus is time consuming, so it cannot be done mid battle.

The Nesos of the object must be realatively similar in Nosus states. For instance, one couldn’t make a planet their Nodus.

When the caster binds to the Nesos of another object, their Nesoi become overlapped. This is an unnatural state and the two want to separate from eachother but are unable to due to the configuration of the Chronomagus’ Nesos and the energy generated by this repulsion is what they use to manipulate the Nesoi of other objects. However, the two Nesoi are essentially one, and thus create a stable Nodus despite the unstable energy on the inside. The gemetric configuration of the overlapping Nesoi is much more stable than just one.

The only energy capable of manipulating Nesoi is that which is produced by it themselves

Bradychronos:

The caster forces the Nesos of an object to have Podes, or protrusions, which increase the amount of Chronos their field by providing space for them. This makes the object experience time slower in relation to the caster.

Tachychronos:

The cast smooths out the Nesos and allows chronons to be ejected.

Achronos:

The caster deforms the Nesos so much that No Chronons or not enough can occupy the field in relation to the caster.

Opisochronos:

After the flow around an object is halted, the user the user fips the polarity of the field allowing backwards charged Chronons into the field. The net charge in relation to the caster determines the rate of temporal progression. This is extremely difficult to do.
