    Shantanu,

    Very fascinating article indeed!!

    Thanks a bunch :-).

    The concept of a Wormhole for timeless travel goes one step further. Here are some links:

    http://www.nasa.gov/centers/glenn/research/warp/ideachev.html

    Doesn’t that sound familiar to what we heard in our childhood from:
    1. Infant Hanuman reaching out to Sun
    2. Krishna reaching out to Draupadi while physically not being present.
    3. Innumerable stories of Shiva-Parvati
    4. Last, but not the least Narad muni..?

    PS: Apologies for PQ, the comment is written without any research.

    namaste,

    One small correction – the whole thing is about spaace travel and not time travel. Have to leave current day space-time concepts out.

    Thanks Sid…will have a look

    It should not be surprising in the quantum world of sub-atomic particles that time can be reversed. Mathematically, that has been equated with negative energy. Translation of this to the 4D space-time continuum that we occupy is another matter. That is because quantum entanglement generated by electro-magnetic radiation provides the forward movement of time. I suppose the other problem for time travel is that the only way to stop, let alone reverse the direction of electro-magnetic radiation is to freeze the body to absolute zero. That seems as impossible as overcoming Einstein’s relativistic equation under quantum entanglement.

    Please take time to read ‘Devi Bhagavath’ to find both time and space travel. Following are the two instances of time and space travel.

    Time:
    The marriage of Balarama, brother of sri krishna to Revathi.
    Revathi’s father was in search of suitable groom to her daughter and his search was not yielding any results. So he goes to the creator Brahma and asks him who could be suitable groom to his daughter.
    Then Brahma tells him that, your travel from earth to this brahma loka has taken nearly 4(approx) mahayugas
    and all of the stuff he had known is all gone and the present earth is a very different place now. And Brahma tells him to get his daughter married to Balarama suggesting him that he is the suitable boy for her.

    Space Travel:
    Every star(like sun) in the universe can be viewed as a individual solar system with planets..etc and such a system is termed as ‘Brahmanda’ each having its own set of brahma,Vishun and eeshvar.
    As per devi Bhagavath and shakti tradition, Lalitha is the parabrahmam and she is the creator of all.

    There is an instance in devi bhagavath, lalitha sends a vimana to brahma,vishun and eeshvar to get them travel to manidweepa(place where Lalitha resides). In their journey they come across many brahmas,vishnus and eeshavrs all doing similar job like them and taking care of the creation , destruction..etc of their allocated brahmandam.

    The above two instance indicate that time and space travel was a fact. Unfortunately we lost the knowledge of these.

    Fascinating…
    From Response to WSJ Op-Ed Calling For Bible Education In Public Schools:
    The WSJ op-ed is also plain wrong in citing that the movie Star Wars was inspired by the Bible. In fact, Infinity Foundation sponsored a research book in the 1990s that traced Ramayana (a Hindu text) as the source which had inspired George Lucas. Lucas acknowledges that he got his ideas from Joseph Campbell who had interpreted Indian narratives as a student of Sanskrit and Hinduism. The book that came out of this project, titled, The Jedi in the Lotus, gives details of how various characters and stories from Ramayana were incorporated into Star Wars.
