    So finding it hot!
    We are in 2016 and you can go to 2025! Thats marvellous.
    So we earthly mortals will be leading two lives on earth itself, one here with normal progression of time 2016 onwards and second with you (again here) with 2025 onwards at unknown flow rate of time. Wow! Its not even naive, its foolish.
    How will you come back? If backward solution is rejected by people you worship?

    No,

    more amusing in the facts that beside myself, many that do not have you on ignore have continually informed you as to the errors in your thinking on similar subjects in other threads, including rpenner and James, and the other fact that your friend/colleague/brother, expletive deleted was banned for doing what you are doing...continually claiming some alternative nonsense, and continually ignoring requests for citations, links, references to support that.
    No, that's relativity: If I had the technology to achieve speeds approaching "c" and returned, I would find myself in another time, other than that shown in my frame both mechanically and biologically.

    Yes, that is confusing at best, but typical of how you operate. But if you are asking if I could return back to 2016, the answer is no, not via time dilation anyway...but you have of course already been told that at least twice in this thread.
    As you have already been informed again, you don't come back:
    Whether backward time travel is allowed or not is at this stage unknown.
    With your "worship" crack, no I worship no one, but respect many greats, and at the same time feel sympathy towards those that continue to be cynical and derisive of accepted science, while unable to support what they say.
    This obviously is a mental condition that I highlighted in the "Are you a Quack" thread, that was then used as a vehicle to push Alien contact as factual, by another on whom the quack cap fitted perfectly and consequently and rightly cesspooled.
    ps: I am preparing another.

    I suppose it could be with enough complexity and ambiguous application. Math that is subject to hermeneutics is not fit for use where ambiguity cannot be tolerated. Math is predominately most useful where precise answers of a numerical nature are required. It is a tool of this kind and without those qualities it would be a mere muse. If you change the nature of the tool it can no longer be used for what it once was in the same way. I for one will not willingly drive over a bridge built with mathematics that was subject to interpretation. Reality is very indifferent to points of view which is what caused science and math to come into existence in the first place.

    Is it possible to interpret ''The Seven Hermetic Principles'' in the modern
    mathematical / physical language ?
    Is it only linguistic kind of interpretation or something more ?
    ===
    1. The Universe is something Intellectual.
    2. As above, so below.
    3. From potential to active existence.
    4. Everything in the Universe can vibrate.
    5. Everything in the Universe has its cause.
    6. Everything in the Universe has its opposite.
    7. The Universe has its own rhythm.
    / Hermes Trismegistus /

    ''change'' according to ‘' The Law of conservation and transformation mass-energy''
    Nobody explains what ''change / transformation'' means according to quantum particle

    2. As above, so below.

    a) Sun has the same chemical elements that on the Earth
    b) . . . .
    ============

    3. From potential to active existence.

    a) Energy can be in two different states: potential and active
    =============

    4. Everything in the Universe can vibrate.

    a) Hawking's radiation - vibration
    b) Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation - vibration
    c) gamma radiation - vibration
    d) x-ray radiation - vibration
    e) ultraviolet radiation - vibration
    f) visible light radiation - vibration
    g) infrared radiation - vibration
    h) . . . etc . . . etc . . . .

    We are live in the ocean of radiation - vibration
    ==============

    6. Everything in the Universe has its opposite.

    a) material particles <---> virtual particles = antiparticles
    b) love ---- hatred
    c) every great philosopher has a great opponent
    d) . . . .
    ================

    Why do you focus only on "vibration"? Vibration is merely one form of motion. There are other equally important types of motion in the universe that are not vibration, namely rotation and translation.

    Also, you seem to be focusing merely on radiation, which are wave motions. What about matter?

    The universe is filled with '' radiation - vibration''- means
    with different kinds of electromagnetic waves.

    '' particles --- antiparticles'' means matter --- dark matter
