Vedic masters have revealed that when you go near a heavy or grosser object, the speed of time slows down. One might argue that the second hand’s speed remains the same irrespective of the location and hence time moves at a constant speed. However, recently Stephen Hawking did a study and concluded that time travel is possible because time is not the same everywhere. In some dimensions, time moves fast and in others it moves slower. This is determined by the speed of light. If you move with the speed of light, in every half an hour, you would move one hour—which means an hour would have passed in the life of others. Hence a dimensional change has occurred within you.
The satellites that orbit the earth have a specialised programme which adjusts time after every day for 1/3 of the billionth of a second. This is because time moves faster in space. If satellites do not make the adjustments, all our global positioning and time systems will become erroneous. If you go even higher, then you gain time. If you go near a black hole and orbit around it with the speed of light at a distance you would not get sucked in, then in every 16 minutes you will gain eight minutes; which means, while eight minutes have passed for you, 16 minutes would have passed for others. So if you circle the black hole for five years and return to earth, 10 years would have passed by on earth. A dimensional change would occur in you and the same time you left would have changed.
All what physics tells us today were clearly laid down in our texts 18,000 to 20,000 years ago. You must have heard that one day in Brahmalok is equivalent to four mahayugs on earth (a mahayug comprises Satyug, Tretayug, Dwaparyug and Kaliyug). It is also said that when Lord Vishnu blinks once, four mahayugs pass by. This is what dimensional change is. In the Mahabharata, in many instances kings would visit gods, and upon returning they would find many centuries had passed. Physics now acknowledges the fact that the more we ascend towards the subtler layers, the faster time moves. You must have observed that in the company of yogis and subtler beings time flies, while the presence of certain other beings makes hours seem like days. This is nothing but a difference of dimensions between the one who is in yog and the one who indulges in grosser activities.
Everything in creation is tied to time, depending on the dimension it exists in. An insect’s entire life passes in 24 hours. For a dog it is 13-15 years. The life of the rishis of yesteryear spanned centuries. They did not merely sit for 500 or 1,000 years, they travelled into the subtler dimensions where time moves faster—while for them only 100 years would have passed, on Earth it would be thousands of years. The key to longevity lies in accessing these subtler dimensions through yog and Sanatan Kriya. As one does dhyan in the presence of a Guru, the five basic senses get stilled and certain higher senses get activated (a human being has a total of 16 senses) through which one is able to perceive dimensions beyond the basic four—length, breadth, depth and time. These dimensions are a subject of experience and not intellect. The austere practices of Sanatan Kriya are needed to experience and discover that these dimensions are real.
Yogi Ashwini is the spiritual head of Dhyan Ashram.
