Yoga of Time Travel

Yoga of Time Travel (Book)

Fred Alan Wolf, theoretical physicist, uses an ancient Hindu meditative technique, that draws on yoga and quantum physics to show that time is a flexible projection of mind.
Possibly one of the most interesting of all of Wolf’s literary output, The Yoga of Time Travel addresses a pivotal overlap between science and religion - the nature of the human experience of time. Colliding together the world of Quantum mechanics and ancient Hindu meditative methods, Wolf manages to show that time is not a constant as one might suppose, rather time is a flexible projection of Mind. The inherent paradox integral to our current understanding of time is bravely tackled by Wolf, employing original thought experiments and metaphors taken from science and Hindu metaphysics to outline a more unified approach to an extraordinary idea: Time Travel. The Yoga of Time Travel presents itself as a fascinating and unique approach to the science-religion mergence. Highly recommended.

Buddha said he could move backward through time, observes theoretical physicist Fred Alan Wolf. Time travel is not just science fiction; it may actually be possible. Wolf draws on yoga and quantum physics to show that time is a flexible projection of mind. Cheating time, he says, is an ancient metaphysical idea from the Vedas having to do with moving through meditation to a place where time stands still.

In reader-friendly language, Wolf explores how time and thought are bound together and how a change in ego structure could allow freedom from time's limitations. And he elaborates on benefits: Time travel, he asserts, could clarify our purpose; change our sense of self, the future, and death; and provide a hero's journey that might aid the entire community. Fascinatingly, Wolf thinks that, under certain circumstances, we might not only visit but even alter the past, with a ripple effect on the present.
