How to Alter Time Space
Monday, July 27th, 2009According to this study human relation to time is measured in horizontal space.
Participants wore prismatic glasses that either shifted their vision to the left or to the right. Those who’s vision was skewed right developed an expanded estimation of time while those who wore glasses skewed left shrank time.

Of the most interest is the story of a woman who’s brain surgery necessitated that her brain and heart be stopped for an hour in order to clear an aneurysm. Although technically dead the woman bore witness to her surgery and was brought back to life – all while throughly monitored by vital stat machines. Operating room evidence shows that the mind can exist without a technically living brain or body.
