Time Slips - Have you experienced a time slip?

Hello, My name is Rob, and I am the creator of 'A Trip Down Ducketts Passage' podcast. It is a podcast primarily about the hit 90's BBC sitcom, Goodnight Sweetheart, but we also lean towards looking at popular time slip accounts. This is due to the fact that the sitcom's main character, Gary Sparrow, happens to find a time portal that takes him back to 1940's London during World War 2.

I am looking to find anybody that thinks they may have experienced a time slip themselves. If so I'm hoping that you would feel comfortable sharing their story on our show, or alternatively, you could email me your story for me to read out to our listeners. It doesn't matter how big and fanciful the story is, we are just intrigued to hear some true accounts.

If you are interested in sharing your story, please respond to this post. Or if you would like to reach me directly, you can email me at duckettspod@gmail.com - I look forward to hearing from you.

It happens in the theology of Tibetian Buddhism, when the Dalai Lama reincarnates sometimes he travels back in time and is birn part of the through his previous life elsewhere to prepare the road for something he will do in the life after.

Also Jews sometimes timetravel, taking people back to historical events like when the Jews first started doing their complex calligraphy, to explain why later on schools would emerge to analyze the curves in letters to make predictions.

Just Jews and Tibetian Buddhists do this, no one else.

@uikakarotuevegeta No, in regards to Tertullian it was a original idea in regards to the unique mechanics of eternal recurrence. I was officially a (christian) stoic for a long time (unofficially now) and so did alot of research into the mathematics and myths surrounding the concept (they used it in their theology mixed with Platonic concepts). I never found anything in the west prior that did what Tertullian tried to do here with the already ancient idea.

Of course it was heretical and disregarded, but he got points for inventiveness.

@Dignaga i meant the whole time repeating itself thing, not a monotheistic diety experiencing many universe cycles and saving people each time it ends

@uikakarotuevegeta Oh. I'm not even sure when that started to be honest, I know where it came from, the Yamnaya people, and I know it branched out to India and the West in a variety of forms seemingly unrelated to it's original form (Aion, the little ball roman emperors would hold, victory (the goddess), the wheel of fortune, the pythagorean concept of the creation of the world, the stoic conceot of universal renewal, Hiranyagarbha, the orphic egg, and more I can't even recall.

The west is splattered with the motifs that split off and coevolved all over the place. Most of which you wouldn't even recognize, but I doubt it originated with the Yamnaya, and I equally doubt it comes from the Neolithic as so many historians like to push old ideas from prehistory all the way back to that point. I just don't know where it comes from originally. Some steppe concept that is Proto-European in a cukture that didn't know how to count very high by using decimal points so they just made the world repeat itself instead of coming up with a really big number to express a sum like Archimedes did in the Sand Reckoner. Big everything repeats itself. Solves so many philosophical issues of mathematics, causality, astronomy and time for a preliterate society.

alright, bs post or not, i have gone hiking through a hillside where, once having reached my designated end-point and retraced my steps back to where i started, noted that barely 1 hour had past for what by all means was a minimum 3hr bushwhack, even if the way back woulda been manageable at average walking pace...

a 'gap-in-the-map' is the term i've heard used in defining this type of instance tho without further explanation as to why/how/what it pertains to, exactly. 🤷‍♂

edit: i'd like to add that i've criss-crossed the same relative area in similar fashion many times without any surreal incidences occurring since.

@BlueSkyKing anecdotes are a form of admissible evidence in courts and studies, even if they're extremely biased and unreliable

@uikakarotuevegeta We’re all children of The Enlightenment and have the right to demand strong evidence before committing to belief. Meaning detectable, measurable, and is repeatable testable.

If it’s not science, it’s superstition.

@BlueSkyKing If I observe a phenomena (any phenomena) and don't see it again, it isn't default a superstition.

And having someone else validate it doesn't make it science (falsifiable), because someone might say they see a unicorn and have it confirmed.

Science when presented this way is on very shaky grounds.
