Living in the now frees you from the shadows of your past and the uncertainties of the future where you can feel truly alive. By doing this I don't alter Universe A, but I create a new Universe B, where my grandfather died and I was never born, but because I was from Universe A, I still exist. When it’s time to sleep, use the relaxation technique (tip 5) to keep your mind off scary thoughts. This will give your mind something to focus on and the calming effect of the music will help you relax. Our cells, memories, thoughts, experiences always change over time. To do this, play the famous lullaby tune as soon as you get into bed. Say I live in Universe A, and I travel back in time and kill my grandfather. Buddhism, however, says that there is no fixed, stable self. Let's take the Grandfather paradox as an example using the Many Worlds theory. The Many Worlds theory actually cancels out the time paradox theories because there are almost infinite worlds. In one world, he chooses tea, in another coffee.Įach of these worlds exists, but only Eike is aware of the world he is in. The example that Homunculus gives is of Eike sitting in a cafe deciding between tea and coffee.
