Our Multiverse

In 1895, American
philosopher and
psychologist William
James coined the term
³Multiverse´ to describe
the set of all possible
parallel universes
Many Worlds, Many Possible Selves
In the 1950s, American
physicist Hugh Everett
proposed there are infinite
alternative realities
alongside our own universe,
with his mathematically
elegant Many-Worlds
Interpretation of quantum
physics.
Though ridiculed and forced to
change his doctoral thesis,
his theory gained support
over the past 50 years.
Imagine Yourself in Many Worlds

Your life can be

viewed as a
series of choices,
in which you
literally branch
off into an
entirely new you
and new universe
with each choice
you make.

Can Our Actions Influence More than
this Present Moment?

How would it feel to influence

past, present, and future
events?
We tend to assume that of
course, our actions now
influence both present and
future events.

Déjà Vu: Remembering a
Probable Future
Have you felt a sense that
what is happening has
already occurred«
... as if events were
unfolding just as they had
before?
Future Memory

Future memories can seem

every bit as clear as
memories of the past.
It¶s hard to know when I
am about to purchase
something if I have it
already -- noting ³this
shirt is his favorite´«
yet I am seeing it for the

 Precognition, Premonitions, &
Intuitive Hunches as
Communications from the Future

foreknowledge of events

alerting us that something
is about to happen

Synchronicities

The simultaneous
occurrence of events
that appear to be
significantly related,
with no discernible
causal connection

A feeling of
being aware of
events
unfolding
from many
perspectives,
all at the same
time

‡ Is it dangerous to change
the past? Can we
intentionally or
inadvertently mess things
up?
‡ Is there a scientific
explanation to support
retrocausality?
‡ What experiments &
experiences have people
had?
Contradictory Causal Loops

What about
³Paradoxical´ or
contradictory causal
loops?
Can we influence the
past in such a way
that undermines us (if
our ancestor dies)?
 Bicausal Contradictions Are
Extremely Unlikely
Contradictions would
occur if:
‡ Future is absolutely
predetermined to
occur in only one
way
‡ Precognition is ³Precogs´ in Minority Report

Retrocausality Logical Requirements
In the 1950s, Oxford philosopher
Michael Dummett clarified the
logical requirements by which
reverse causality could transpire,

Meeting Dummett¶s Requirements
If the state of a photon is
influenced by the next
polarizing filter, the only
way to tell if the
polarization in the future
affected the photon in the
past is to put another
polarizer in the path of the
photon, before it reaches
the polarizer in question.

results from his double-blind study of
more than 3,000 patients that
demonstrated people who had been

experienced considerably shorter
hospital stays and shorter periods of
fever

& the Past

There is a 2-way µhandshake¶

between past and future in
John Cramer¶s transactional
interpretation of quantum
physics.
Advanced & Retarded Waves
While we predominantly
observe retarded
waves, it is likely that
in every case where
energy is being
transmitted from a
central source, it is
also being received
centrally by that
source.
 Theory of Everything

The Theory of
Everything (TOE)
brings the study of the
very small (quantum)
together with the very
large (cosmology).

Two-directional causality easily resolves long-

standing paradoxical problems in physics.
 Retrocausality Presents A New Take
on the Observer Effect
Schrödinger¶s cat is
alive @ it is dead,
even when nobody
looks -- it does not
exist in an
³uncollapsed wave
state.´
The observer effect then becomes a matter of
one¶s future viewpoint influencing what has
already transpired.

Time Slows to a Stop
In summer 1991 in
Lausanne, Switzerland,
I saw my infant
daughter falling
headfirst from my
husband¶s shoulders
toward the hard train
station floor, when time
slowed to a stop,
allowing me to catch
her safely in my arms.
Experiencing Friend¶s Future Visit

In August 1998, I heard a

car pull into our
driveway and my
daughter exclaim,
³Where are you going?´
to our friend who said
something, then drove
away
My friend said he¶d once
driven here, spoken
aloud & left

In November 2000, I was running errands when I got a

message from my future self to visit my daughters in
grade school at lunch hour. È )  
she said. She was right.
Time Loops

I¶ve witnessed sequences of

events repeat themselves:
I watched a woman hand out her
business cards«  !
In April 2001 I observed with
another witness a woman enter
the Crowne Plaza Hotel in
Albuquerque (now the Marriott
Pyramid North) and walk
through«  !
Spontaneous Remission
In 1998, my grandmother¶s
liver cancer vanished --
with no surgery or
chemotherapy, just prayers
and love from friends and
family. She¶d been told she
had months to live.
Neva¶s prayers were simply
to have the courage to face
whatever came next;
hundreds of people prayed
for her.
