Ever since I read Conversation with God and encountered the concept of Past, Present, and Future all happening at the same time, I have been sleeping a little less. The concept is so radically different from our chronological perception that it is almost impossible to imagine it. I am willing to bet that people living before Columbus's time had some reservation when they first heard the Earth was a sphere.
But if we make a mental leap and accept this idea as fact, a whole new world of possibilities is opened up to us. In this new world, time is no different from space. Traveling to the Past or to the Future is no different from going to Jupiter or to the edge of the expanding Universe. And "traveling" through time and space in this new world is no different from daydreaming by the window.
During a run the other day, I was thinking about all those movies with time travel as a central theme. Because the standard time travel story lines are all based on the premise of chronology, we either see the recurrent scenarios of "the Past is fixed but the Future is movable"...or the scenarios of "the Present can be altered by changing the Past".
In the world of "Past, Present, and Future all happening at once", what new scenarios would we see? First of all, there would no longer be a time-line. Second, I can only illustrate this idea graphically if reincarnation of the soul is accepted as fact. And third, the idea only makes sense if you believe in the "thoughts-lead-to-realities" manifestation cycle.
Because all 3 time references are happening at once, I think that all time references can affect one another. No longer is the Present and Future dependent on the Past, but the Past can be altered by the Present or even by the Future. If you can imagine that your Present self is a residual vibration from the time of creation (i.e. conception) then you can start seeing the idea of the Past existing along side with the Present. Now if you can imagine this residual vibration is actually the residual vibration from the time of the Original Creation (i.e. The Big Bang) that has been carried over thousands if not millions of reincarnations, then you can see that you are the embodiment of all Past since the beginning of time.
If the Past is residual vibrations, then what is Future? Future is all new vibrations at the cellular level that have not been fully formed into thoughts at the conscious level. Future is all thoughts at the fetal stage, very malleable and slippery. Of course, it has to be so because the Present and the Past is constantly affecting it.
I think of all the interdependent relationships among these 3 elements, the Present and Future affecting the Past is the hardest concept for us to accept. If we broke a glass, no one expects to see that glass whole again. Life is not a word processing program where you can "undo" a deed, right? Right...and wrong. Life is only as real as your perception makes it. How many times have history books been rewritten to change the perception of the victor? How many times have the last act of a man defines his whole life? It is not only possible, but it's real. If enough people believe it's real then it's real...no matter what had actually transpired during the first go around.
I think the Present can affect both the Past and the Future. Of course, there is much less freedom in changing the Past because of more constraints; but the process of affecting the vibrations of the Past is no different from that of the Present or the Future.

Have I ever told you how much I love your mind? =) So...if you ever have a akashic record reading of the future and once you know your future...you can actually tune in the future and acquire the skills at that time frame and use them in the present. Now don't ask me how to do that...though I think meditation might help...;D
