Time travel, a 4-D perspective

The reality is a complex multidimensional entity that reveals itself only through our limited senses. Our species is only sophisticated enough to map three of these n-dimensions into an orthogonally separate properties. This is what we conventionally call as ‘space’.

According to the General theory of reality, time-space is an inseparable four-dimensional continuum. Since we could not map the fourth dimension uniquely in our mind, we folded it on to the same spacial dimension. That is why multiple events seem to be happening at each point in space, even though each event is an unique point in itself.

Because of this limitation in our understanding of reality, we ask stupid questions like, ‘is time travel possible ?’, ‘whether we can go back in time ?’. But if we do go back in time, it would be the same us at that point in time, at where we were, with exact same memory at that time. We ARE at that time and we are also in THIS time. All the time, space and events exist in eternity. It is our mind that is experiencing this reality as a sequence of events that is unfolding in an unchanging space in the direction of increasing entropy.

The notion that, 'What we perceive is the actual reality', is not only improbable but completely unnecessary from the evolutionary standpoint

The hard problem

There are two orthogonal, equally valid and equally unverifiable axioms about the foundation of reality that existed for a long time in our society. One is from the west, which is the scientific worldview. It claims that the world is made of matter. This matter came out of nothing, from matter came the life form, the simple organisms first and then the complex one. The complex organisms later developed a central nerves-system, from this emerged the mind and the consciousness. This consciousness, that ultimately emerged from the mater, enables the organism to perceive the material world back. The other theory is from the east, which is the spiritual world view. It claims that the consciousness is the fundamental aspect of reality from which the mind, thought and the objective world emerges. The former aims to unlock the mystery of reality by dissecting the matter. The later does so by introspecting the consciousness.

Reality Check

Most people assume that the world we perceive is the world that exists. It is fundamentally a flawed assumption. If you just probe this assumption a bit deeper, you will easily arrive at the conclusion that the world that we perceive is the world that we create. I am not saying that the reality does not exist or that we create the world through our imagination. What I am claiming is that the perception is not a passive act. Image, sound, time and space does not exist outside our perception. There may be something "out there" (if at all) that correlates to what we perceive . But, in order to perceive a specific form of reality, we have to create them in the first place. Don't forget that the unique point of view of one's individual reality does not exist without him. Every moment of perception is an act of creation through the subconscious process of our neurological network, that evolved over millions of years of trial and error. Let us examine in scientifi...
