Is this a problem with time-travel?

[Tjufsen]

Let`s say you can travel in time, make everything around you, travel in time, wouldn`t the surge of time, when it hits a person, notice it and resist the change? I mean, the soul, or mind, isn`t dead materie, so it`d notice the surge, and resist it, so perhaps, everything of materie around him or her changes, but the person itself, would resist the change, and stay the same, doesn`t that make time-travel, impossible? You`d en up in a different time perhaps, but you`d still be the same, if someone else initated time-travel? You`d notice the change, and resist it, by will alone?

 

[Yttrium]

It's just a matter of splitting off a parallel timeline. A parallel universe, if you will. Things could change while you remain the same. Basic Schrodinger paradox resolution. Of course, this will eventually lead you to meeting an alternate future child of yours who will have psychic powers and team up with you to prevent the upcoming world-breaking calamity that you inadvertently caused with your temporal meddling.

 

[Mark Quayle]

We're already traveling through time. What's your hurry?

However, if a time shift occurs at a different rate, how would we even know?

Now a time JUMP —that's something else.

 

[JohnEmmett]

God may reset our timeline…

Similar to Nietzsche's theory of Eternal return

 

[JohnEmmett]

At this point I do not really believe it

Time is just another way of measuring distance, and the distance between distinct points of spacetime is always greater than zero, whether that distance is perceived as time-like, space-like or some combination. Moreover, if spacetime is a manifold that distance may be indefinitely large, it is never infinite. So, just as the distance between discrete points is always positive, the time between distinct points is always positive.

It appears to me that time is something everybody knows about but find hard to explain what it is.

Am I right that you can only know about time in relation to two other things - motion & space?
And you can only know each of those without reference to time, it seems.
That is three things which can only be defined by two of the other.

We can only know what space is by motion and time.
We can only know that motion is by time and space.
We can only know what space is by motion and time.

Three profound things which need each other to detect.
It reminds me of the Trinity.

Questions.
Why would the person resist it? Can the person resist it?
Physical things are trapped in time? Are spiritual?

Surgeon and neurologist dr Eben Alexander claimed in his NDE that time is not experienced the same.

But here is an interesting story to make you wonder.
A bed ridden peasant nun in Belgium 200 years ago, who had never travelled at all, and at a time there were no detail maps or easy means of transport: She described a house on a remote mountain top in Turkey near Ephesus.

She described all the views from it, which were unique from which you could see islands, rivers , and the city of Ephesus a long way away. She described both inside and outside of the building , built on an unusual shape footing.

Many years later , from the description, the house was found.
It was Hard work when there were no roads and few tracks. It was found by accident searching for water and well overgrown. The views exactly as the nun described. The building was tumble down and clearly some parts had been over built on an older foundation. The floor plan was as she described. It was only when they dug down through centuries of dirt, they found the foundation in the unusual shape she described with side rooms. They dug down to find remnants of a very old fire exactly where she said it would be.

No visitor in her era would have seen what she saw. So nobody could have told her about it.
so It is hard to come to any other conclusion than she saw it as it had been almost two millenia before. Her conciousness had TRAVELLED BACK IN TIME! The nun - Anne Catherine emmerich.

The house? Mereyemana Evi , also know as Panaghia Capouli. It is believed to be Mary’s house in Ephesus , where apostle John took her , when Jerusalem became too dangerous to stay.
IT is now a pilgrimage site revered by Christian’s and Moslems .

It also reminds me of the "Three Bears" and the "Three Little Pigs".

What is your point there?
Is it that the revelation of Trinity is like a Mother Goose fairy tail? Is that it?

Let`s say you can travel in time,...

That assumption carries with it its own set of built-in rules. We cannot anticipate the consequences of said time travel without ascertaining --not inventing-- its intrinsic chronodynamics.
I have a feeling that, since gravity & time are interrelated,⏳︎it will ruin your day...!
