Why? Because if you realize time lines are going to be changed a lot anyway in and from the past, present and future in a never ending cascade of time changes then it changes how you think about everything in your life.
In other words, Potentially nothing is permanent except our memories of what has happened until we pass away and are buried or cremated. Our memories of what we have experienced is likely the most permanent thing in our lives (even though in the future everything we remember might be eliminated by some time changes including our own births on the time line we are living on now.
So, why is it useful to know that time travel is going on all around us?
If nothing is really permanent then our relationship to God and to enlightenment becomes really really important.
In fact, in Tibetan Buddhism they make sand drawings to demonstrate the nature of impermanence.
If you meditate on just how temporary it is to be a human being often you are more kind to everyone you know including yourself.
By God's Grace
