okay...i see.
well i guess technically speaking everything that has happened or will ever happen happens 'now'. that is the now contains all temporal events.
so...in theory it may be possible to travel back/forward in time, in some manner of speaking.
i don't think you can get separated from time - the eternal is what encompasses and sustains time - infinite time if you like. to be timeless is to be in eternity - the basic primordial flux devoid of any conceptual differentiation. maybe we visit this dimension in dreams....perhaps thatiis what it feels like to be a time traveller.
