In my most recent post, I explained my theory of what might happen when we die ? simply put ? the `light? so many describe at the NDE (near death experience) is nothing more than the Sun itself. These near death experiencers have this experience when their `body space? `separates? from their Earth body and `the body space? still has the capacity for perception - commonly called an out-of-the-body experience. Further, in my post, I describe that this one act never done while living (looking directly at the Sun) is a powerful emotional experience that probably ends `most human life experience?. To me, it?s also beautiful ? we (our souls, our body space) return to the Earth?s actual life source ? the Sun.
BUT, (and it?s a big but) - what about Ghosts (?) - where do `they? `fit in?? Specifically, if ghosts exist, ? how do they `get to the `real? `present? ? from their DEAD `past?? Do they `come from some remote time?? Do they have an ontological basis?
Recently on my lens www.squidoo.com/anomalyman I had a link to a `Story? about `visitors? from the `past? being thrust into our present. Since we can assumed that these old time visitors were dead ? it would seem to fit the case I am beginning to make. Anyway that link (found on anomalyman) is directly http://www.ufoarea.com/physics_cosmology_travelers.html . That said, I now believe just a few days later, that the story is a hoax in a way - perhaps the beginning of an urban legend. Something didn?t ring true to me and various google searches of key words about the story yield nothing except the `story itself?. It?s scary that legends can be started so easily. (Briefly, if you didn?t read this account ? it states that twice in 1936 portals opened and folks from the past were seen in the streets `alive? ? then `vanished in front of the eyes?.) Anyway, I was surprised that I?d never heard that tale in my readings on Time ? and when - as I said - the Google search turned up NOTHING - I felt duped to a degree. (Specifically, nothing unique other than the post comes up for terms like the authors name, city, vanished, and the `ghosts name? - nor ? Fresno, timetravel, legends.)
It makes one wonder `why? one would `start an urban legend? when their is REAL accounts of `Ghosts? appearing - and vanishing - in a flash. The best known ghost `story? and most verifiable in my opinion is none other than the Ghosts of Pilot Bob Loft and Flight Engineer Don Repo from the crashed Eastern Airlines Flight 401. If you have never heard of this story before, a few quick facts about the `case?.
First, the crash on Dec. 29th, 1972 was the FIRST EVER of a L-1011, deemed in those days the next generation of widebody aircraft. It crashed into a Florida swamp and 76 of the 176 aboard survived. Parts of the plane were actually in such good shape that they were re-used later in other L-1011?s. And, THAT is - where and when - the `real story? of `time traveling ghosts? begins. I will explain in a moment ? but a simple google of the book written about the `ghosts? called `The Ghosts of Flight 401′ will give you incredible information.
Again, in a nutshell, after the planes parts were recycled ? Mr. Loft and Mr. Repo began to appear on flights with the recycled parts. Indeed, over 20 times they were seen on Eastern Flights. These `sightings? included those that knew them personally and strangers. And, they even talked and acted - and vanished in a puff/instant. One flight was even cancelled. At least once, one of them appeared in a seat of a plane at 35,000 ft and flying. Reports are that they vowed to keep the L-1011?s safe. IS that `spooky? enough for you? Is that proof of surviving death, at least for some `time?? Is it proof, of the ability of the past to come into our present? And, is this `time travel? really?
My first analysis will point out what this is NOT. This is NOT `time travelers? from the future ? one of the staples of science fiction. And, for good reason ? none of the future has EVER existed. None of it. BUT, as you know, part of the past has existed and was real. And, that folks, is a major difference - real past things - might have future time. Whereas, things that have never existed (the future) `have no real? - or - in my opinion - `contact? with it (the real now).
Whew, now that that is out of the way, where does that leave the ghosts of Mr. Loft and Mr. Repo? Did they `time travel? ? I?d say maybe - for sure. LOL. I mean is it `time travel? if ones space has never left the `real now?? And, is it proof that if one dies in unique circumstances - ones `dead space? may continue on Earth for a timeframe which is in the now - so to speak. These `dedicated ghosts? on a `mission? seem to be able to continue forward their own idenity for at least some `time?. It?s also obvious from the sightings of these two men that `dead body space? can vanish. At least vanish in `our real actualize time?.
Ontologically, the chance that the past can jump into the future must be admitted - and the case of Flight 401 might be a case of it. But, the other way of looking at it is that the `space? of Mr. Loft and Mr. Repo never left the now and don?t represent the past coming into the future.
