the only reason you are capable of imagining something... anything... is because that thing already exists somewhere. as a part of the crystal. part of the unchanging mandala that is creation.

I agree on this, but more on the notion that we right now are, all of us, tapping into the mind of the whole, so in that regard we are, in a way, being able to sort of access an experience that's not even our own, in other words, as you said, imagining.

But in a universe so huge as this, it's easy to see how you wouldn't need all realities of you for those experiences to exist, all you'd need is for in some other planet, God knows where, to have been a person that lived trough that exact thing.

If all experiences that could possibly happen could be lived at once by a single individual, in different realities, there would be no need for an unbelievably vast universe to live them, a single planet perhaps would suffice.

Anyway imo we only go forward, as beings, we grow paradise-ward, this of being able to freely go back and actually relive things doesn't make much sense to me, I believe we will be able to perhaps "mindaly" do so, when our minds are much more vast than they are now, but it will be like ultra fancy turbo imagining, we won't be really going back in time, and reliving anything, time and reality remains as one.

But just to make something clear here, I never said there was no point in experiencing something, the discussion was:

• There are sacrifices made that can be undone
• Person proposes that means we go back in time and change it
• I say it wouldn't make sense because if the tribulation has meaning and purpose, as it always does, you would make it pointless by going back and preventing said tribulation from happening
