Winner of ForeWord Magazine's Book of the Year Award for Mind/Body/Spirit

Buddha said he could move backward through time, observes theoretical physicist Fred Alan Wolf. Time travel is not just science fiction; it may actually be possible. Wolf draws on yoga and quantum physics to show that time is a flexible projection of mind. Cheating time, he says, is an ancient metaphysical idea from the Vedas having to do with moving through meditation to a place where time stands still.

In reader-friendly language, Wolf explores how time and thought are bound together and how a change in ego structure could allow freedom from time's limitations. And he elaborates on benefits: Time travel, he asserts, could clarify our purpose; change our sense of self, the future, and death; and provide a hero's journey that might aid the entire community. Fascinatingly, Wolf thinks that, under certain circumstances, we might not only visit but even alter the past, with a ripple effect on the present.

Shift: At the Frontiers of Consciousness



ENDORSEMENTS
In a series of ground-breaking books published in the last three decades, Fred Alan Wolf has explored the cutting edge where quantum-relativistic physics and modern consciousness research meet the ancient wisdom of the great spiritual philosophies of the East and of the Western mystical traditions. His approach to the challenges involved in this task combines in a unique way academic rigor with profound experiential knowledge of the human psyche. His new book, THE YOGA OF TIME TRAVEL, represents a giant leap toward a comprehensive worldview of the future integrating the best of modern science with the best of authentic spiritual traditions.
Stanislav Grof, M.D., author of Beyond the Brain, The Cosmic Game, and Psychology of the Future

Fred Alan Wolf is one of the most eloquent and clear scientists who explains the relationship between the laws of nature and consciousness. His book, THE YOGA OF TIME TRAVEL, will help you break the illusion of linear time and experience a domain that is eternal, timeless, and acausal. This experience helps conquer all fear including the fear of death and gives you a glimpse into the immortal nature of your soul.
Deepak Chopra, author, Ageless Body, Timeless Mind and The Book of Secrets

I enjoyed reading this book, and you will, too. Simply put, it is one of the most imaginative books I have read about the nature of time. It makes us wonder if time travel is possible, not only through the use of technology, but through yoga, which anyone can practice.
Amit Goswami, author of The Self-Aware Universe, The Visionary Window, and Physics of the Soul

THE YOGA OF TIME TRAVEL is a fascinating speculation at the intersection of hard science and fantasy. A must read for science buffs!
Edgar Mitchell, Sc.D. Appollo 14, Founder: Institute of Noetic Sciences

Fred Alan Wolf’s THE YOGA OF TIME TRAVEL shows how the patterns of Yoga are implied by the ideas of modern physics. He makes concepts such as black holes, the space-time continuum, and parallel universes something we can feel. He has always been at the forefront of creating a new integral science that includes psychology, physics and spiritual thinking.
Arny Mindell, author of Quantum Mind and The Quantum Mind and Healing

Fred Alan Wolf takes the reader beyond the normal boundaries of space and time into the world of the infinite, eternal spirit. In doing so, he blends physics and spirituality in a way that is both seamless and intriguing.
Glen Kezwer, author of Meditation, Oneness and Physics
