Looking For Cases

I'm looking for cases or claims of "Mental Time Travel." That means time traveling with one ones mind. Cases that do NOT involve the use of a machine to travel through time. If you know of a case or person who has made a claim like this, or you are a person who has such a claim to make. Please tell me your story, and feel free to give details.

..."I don't discount time travel, as I myself, saw the events of 9/11 at 12 years of age back in the 1970's and was recorded in 1993/4 on video stating that I would be in my late 30's at the time of the event.

During the period that this information came to me, I had gone missing for 3-4 hours. It was 6:25 when I left my friends house, and it was either 9:30, or 10pm, as the news was on when I came through the door. To me only seconds had elapsed, not hours.

So, I do believe that time travel is possible given the right equipment and the ability to warp space and time. I know that the majority of UFO's have the ability to travel through different time frames..."

Curious George,

I am not claiming anything, I saw this thread when you posted it, then later, I ran across the blurb in italics above in another forum---and when I saw it, I remembered YOUR THREAD HERE and thought you might find it interesting.

That's all.

I have never traveled in time in any way, and that is Not MY post in the linked thread.

I have a pretty good case for you. I have the memories of the late 60's, early and late 70's, early and late 80's, early and late 90's, and the early and working on the memories of this current century. I remember from the year 2000 to currently the year 2009. So I have mentally traveled in time as you want but also I have physically traveled in time too. I have been moving forward in time both physically and mentally since the late 60's. I am a time traveler.
 
Can you give me details of your mental time travel experience. Do you actually remember the process of traveling through time? Do you have any control over the process? You said you travel to the future, are you able to retain any useful information from the future? Have any of the dates you have traveled to come to pass yet, and if so were the events you originally saw changed in anyway? Do you feel that events in time are predestined or do you believe you are able to change things?
 
While the claim you posted of someone else's might be interesting if it could be substanciated, it doesn't really fit the Mental time travel genre. It's more prophecy or the whole video tape thing makes it sort of one of those warnings from the future. It's not really mental time travel.
 
I guess I need to describe more in depth what mental time travel is... The only established examples I have are in works of science fiction. The Butterfly Effect, Slaughter House 5, Quantum Leap. Journeyman and Hiro from Heroes, while are mentally obtained, leave chances for complications. I perfer ones where someone can jump to either their own future/past self, or jump into someone elses body for a certain time frame. These leave less room for the proving false because of the lack of disappearance from the present, or creditable witnesses.
 
What you're looking for is what might be called a "Temporal Displacement Experience."

Rather than concentrating on some pseudo-physical hypothesis involving "physically" being displaced in time, you theme seems to be to concentrate on the experience itself, which I think is an excellent approach.

Most of the time-travel claims posted here are based on an implicit belief in "the magic of machinery," --some technological gizmo that will transport the individual through time. This is the modern version of the "magic potion", etc. :D

Like this one, it is not exactly what you described, but it's very interesting:

My Location Displacement Experience - by James Bartley
http://www.whale.to/b/bartley13.html


I do have one weird time experience. In about 1989, I was very active in the "Puget Sound Pool League" circuit and played in tournaments as well.

One day, I was driving towards a tournament location, I was 2 hours early to practice on their tables. One stoplight before the driveway (I could see the sign) -- all of a sudden, one moment to the next, it was three hours later. I was still in my car, same location. I knew something was different because it was dark. I did go in, a bit bewildered, with no explanation for my friends. The tournament had started an hour ago.

I never figured that out, no idea what that is called. I also saw a person disappear into thin air once, but that is another story.

There was a person I forgot his name that claimed he could gain knowledge through putting himself into a trance. I would call it time travel with meditation. It was claimed he could see what was medically wrong with people. He claimed to see the future and gave and account of the end of man. He tried and failed to open a hospital. Maybe someone reading my account can give you more information about this person. I,ve heard meditation being used for all sorts of stuff. While I do believe it is true that it can help heal the body and soul and develop the mind I don,t believe in using it to do super natural things like time travel or remote viewing though some people might claim success at this. My personal experience is with moving forward naturally in time. Now I am not talking about my own claims which is not part of the subject here so I will stay away from that. Anyway on the mental stuff see if you can google the guy that used to put himself into a trance to time travel. He used to get paid to tell people stuff.
