This post is a theory I have had for a long time and featured it briefly in my journal I wrote for university.
We view time as a linear line. We see time as a process of something happening and the ability to know something having a start and an end. We view time as the morning the afternoon the evening the night. But what if the time was both the morning and the afternoon for the same person at the same moment?
Imagine that time is not just one line but more like a zig zag or river like. This would mean that there is not one thing happening at one time but lots of things. The birth of person could be happening at the same time as his first day at school, his wedding and his death. All these would be happening at the same time but just different parts of river. This is multiple time lines.
What about a dual time line? We understand and view time in a linear line. What if there was more than one thing happening. What if we had two view points in time? We could already have two view points and just not be aware of them. They might not be aware of each other.
Think about this, every moment has already happened. The moment where you are reading this is just one moment. One thinks it is linear only because when starting a new “moment block” one starts with the memory of the previous block. Therefore you see the world in a linear fashion. But just seeing the world in this fashion does not mean it is linear. Think of a grid of 16x16 “moment blocks” or “memory blocks”. All the moments could be put into the gird into any order. The result would not be out of order because each time a new moment is started the memory from the last one is blanked and at the start of the block it had the preceding information. Using this logic it may even be possible to say that nothing has ever happened and what is remembered is only remembered because it was told at the start of the block. This could even mean that the universe is just made up of moment blocks and they are in no order what so ever. Think about a movie the start the middle and the end. The movie is like one block and one view of that block. If there were lots of blocks all being viewed at the same time but by different people there would be no reason to think someone else is watching another block unless one knew about it.
So what could be gained from this? Well for one if we are viewing all points at the same time of our life, then if we can become aware of the other view points we can see into the future/past. If we are not viewing but living in a river timeline we may be able to, jump on the bank and back in the river, so to speak. This would enable one to travel into different moments. Just because we view time from one angle does not mean it is what we see. Viewing a three dimensional object from one angle can make it look two dimensional. Just because time looks linear does not mean it is.
