Einstein says the reason that time dilation occurs is because when we travel fast in space-time we use some of our energy up at speed through time, but you could also state the effect was caused by a separate force of time existed uniform and relative to all objects within space-time no mater what their postions are in a space-time event relative to each other.
You do not move up, down or backward or forward , as Einstein states the only motion allowed is forward in time or space-time, and space-time has only 2 axis space and time and both run parallel to each other in the same direction , so therefore all motion is in a straight-line in a forward direction it also means only forward forces can be exerted in space-time and as our speed through time is a constant fixed rate speed c, then how can energy in at space-time equal a reduction in speed through time for any object relative to another as the only change it can make is in a forward motion a reduction would require a force with motion in the opposite direction so saying an object can somehow reduce it’s speed through time relative to other objects sounds very much like appling a force in a direction other than forward.
How i see it Lets take space-time as the usually rubber band analogy but this time stretch it across a river and emerge it in the flow of water no matter how you move objects in relation to each other along the expanding rubber band they all feel the flow of the river at the exact same rate no matter what they do on the rubber band they can speed up their movement on the rubber in relation to other objects in a forward motion and experience positions on the rubber band further along than other objects in relation to it, but to the river all objects on the band are just stationary and the reason we can’t change the speed at which we travel through time is we can only ever travel in a forward motion in the expansion of space-time and that is irrelevant to the flow of time it is not a statement of thoery just a disagrement on why a certain effect has happened.

It does. You have an X-axis, a y-axis and a z-axis for a coordinate system of 3 dimensions. Or, to make it familiar to you, one can travel along the east-west axis, the north-south axis or the up-down (some prefer to use the term "inward-outward" instead) axis or a combination of all three. Momentum can be measured for all three and it can come to zero for any one or all three if you just remain put and do not move with respect to earth. But you are still displaced through time when you sit still. You do not stop aging and neither does rock lying on the ground. when time is the dimension that your energy is most displaced, then time has a positive sign and all the three spatial dimensions have a minus sign in front.

no that is just an abstract concept we use to plot locations in reality all we do is move objects in a straight line between two points in a forward motion within the space-time expansion event which we all call the big bang.
Secondly how do I travel in only one axis unless it is time? How do I travel west if west is just an axis without adding a space-time event to move along? The 3 axis are properties of the volume and space-time just expands along those axis, the only reason you can travel anywhere is space-time creates the place you want to get to and it wont exist without it, a coordinate system has axis 3 of volume and can only state a point within it which is an abstract view of an objects relative position in space-time as time never stops when objects positions are plotted as points in 3 axis,it only states something moved through that position relative to axis of coordinates It’s motion is always in only one direction in a straight line through no mater how many points you would plot, but oddly space-time is always part of the plot and coordinates as luckily space-time is or are automatic, space-time is motion and a requirement for all things contained within the space-time expansion event we just take it for granted and the reason the coordinate system makes sense is that it also travels through space-time.

Don't you really mean that I cannot move without going through it? You seem to be implying that I am taking space-time with me. That does not happen. space-time is not at rest with respect to me. Only my reference frame is.

Not at all space-time is an event that is expanding within the universe we are in this event and move along it’s expansion in a forward motion we can however change our position in expansion relative to other objects by means of exerting energy in to equal distance travelled along it’s expansion which must mean general space-time and my local time are disconnected or changed in some fashion relative to each other so if they are relative to each other then they must be two distinct entities, so it would require a separate one dimensional force of time that does not change to regulate my speed through time as i change my position in the expansion event another force of time to keep my speed through time at speed c.
I know the rate of time is only relative to the observer but how can it be if you say it is a fixed constant relative to each object no matter what their position in space-time relative to each other.
