Truth is the closest to what could be happening here, is a literal translation from the TV series called travelers. A Quantum frame computer in the future called the director, is helping humanity and is able to send consciousness back in time. However only into dying people. They have exact timestamps when a person dies due to future past connections. Then moment of death the director sends a traveler into the person and has from that moment on to continue protocols to live the person's life. While also working on The Plan. Many Q kinda hints in this show.
