There are copies of you in alternatives universes (alternative timelines)
According to the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, yes...


The many-worlds interpretation is an interpretation of quantum mechanics that asserts the objective reality of the universal wavefunction, but denies the actuality of wavefunction collapse. Many-worlds implies that all possible alternative histories and futures are real, each representing an actual "world" (or "universe"). It is also referred to as MWI, the relative state formulation, the Everett interpretation, the theory of the universal wavefunction, many-universes interpretation, or just many-worlds.

If you don't believe me, click on the link to Wikipedia.

The mainstream scientists say that when the "waveform" of an electron is measured in a lab, the universe splits in two timelines.

Yes, that's mainstream science.

Mainstream scientists confirm that there are alternate timelines, with copies of us...

Re: There are copies of you in alternatives universes (alternative timelines)
Driving a car, for example, becomes extremely hazardous, because it's almost certain that somewhere in some other universe the driver will accidentally hit and kill a child. So should we never drive? Deutsch thinks it's impossible to control the fate of our other selves in the multiverse. But if we're cautious, other copies of us may decide to be cautious. "There's also the argument that because the child's death will happen in some universes, you ought to take more care when doing even slightly risky things," he says.

Coming from a physicist of lesser stature, such startling views might be dismissed. But Deutsch possesses impeccable credentials. While still in his early thirties he created the theoretical framework for an entirely new discipline called quantum computation. Spurred by those ideas, researchers around the globe are attempting to construct a fundamentally different type of computer that is powerful almost beyond imagining.

I wonder if our mind sometimes communicates, at subconscious level, with the minds of the other copies of us in the other timelines....

Re: There are copies of you in alternatives universes (alternative timelines)
If you guys like this topic, you would like the Jane Roberts/Seth books, Seth Speaks is an introductory title and The Nature of Personal Reality follows, they both have a lot of information about this subject. There are many other books that expand in detail on how this multiple universe functions in your own life.

I read her books at a young age and they have always been a big influence on me.

Re: There are copies of you in alternatives universes (alternative timelines)
i seen one of my others in a dream i had and my other was doing fine ,,he was working hard still fit without adrenal fatigue and other problems,,i seen thhe other working and the firm which is not around now was also still going strong,,,so if every time a firm or a person made a bad decision and the life model breaks down some were it split in to another which it dident so if we add all the decisions which are wrong for an entity up i bet theres over a hundred and maybe they all come back together at some point and the good decisions win out over the bad and the entity is compleate and sorta passed the test,and knows nothing of the copies which failed as the others sorta just dispersed,painless like...thinkin allowed

I don't have a clue what all of that means, but I do know that I have experienced on two separate occasions what some call deja vu. Both were just everyday mudane tasks or social events that startled me because I just knew I had already played this scene before. It's a very strange feeling when it happens.
