Edgar Cayce's Time Concept

[marky]

i saw the tailend of a show in cable this week that was talking about edgar cayce.

part of what was mentioned was that he claimed time was fluid, and past-present-future were all happening simulateously...and the concept of "time" was just an illusion for us. i found that to be quite interesting.

does anyone know more about this? any books (doesnt have to be from cayce) that talk about this fluidity of time concept?

Does that mean that we can't change our future? This would be a bit like determinism then.

I actually had thought a lot about a similar concept. I also thought about what if past, present and future were happening simultaneously, all the time. I thought that I could re-incarnate into past of future then and practically two people could be in one person because they would do the exact same things anyway. If you understand what I mean... But as I said, our whole lives would be pre-determined then and we couldn't change much - I want to change much so I stopped thinking about it.

This is a link to a cool 25min program on the Physicist Julian Barbour’s take on time called Killing Time; it is really neat. He basically says there is no such thing as time.
