I wouldn't underestimate what the mind is capable of. After all, you are using the experiences of the mind ("sensations of home") in an attempt to undermine what the mind is capable of reproducing, which really doesn't make sense if you think about it.
I must ask, have you tried empirically validating this claim in some way? For example, having someone write a random 6 digit number on a piece of paper, observing that number while out of body and then verifying for yourself that what you saw was "real" once you woke up?
I think we are all familiar with Hollywood's take on what an OBE is. But coming from a more objective and scientific point of view, even if OBE's can be used to experience things in an "extra-sensory" fashion (as described above), that doesn't necessarily imply anything actually "leaving" your body. It just as likely that an OBE is a sort of "psychic lucid dream" instead of a soul floating around.
After all, there is at least some hard evidence supporting the existence of E.S.P. Your theory, on the other hand, is building upon commonly accepted (but otherwise insufficiently substantiated) claims of a soul, much less one that can see physical light waves without physical retinas, hear physical audio waves without physical ear drums, etc etc.
