Thread: OBE or Different LD?

I believe that AP is really just false awakening, and until I experience one or read some scientific proof I dunno, I'm gonna have a hard time buying it.

Some types of OBEs have been "scientifically documented" (don't ask me for proof I just read that somewhere like wiki and I doubt it just as much as you!), I tend to think that there are certain times at which your body is so screwy it just needs to throw you out of perspective, like when they say people in car accidents have OBEs. Why not, your body knows all the information it's probably easier to let you see the experience from out of the car than in it (or through it, as it were).

If someone did an experiment, like wrote a secret codeword in another room, and then someone was supposed to AP and go to that next room and could accurately read the words, then maybe I'd buy into it. The fact that such a simple experiment hasn't been documented...

Haha, yeah. That's kinda what I was thinking. If I get good at OBE's then I'm definitely gonna try something like that.

Starting a debate is definitely not my intention because this is probably not the right place for it, and it would probably be pointless. But I would like to hear the point of view of someone who has OBEs and Astral Projections and believes that they are linked with reality. I am just curious as to what causes you to believe this? Is it the fact that it seems so real? or is it the fact that it is so different from a normal dream? or what?

And maybe someone who has never experienced OBEs or Astral Projections but believes in them would like to share their point of view. It would be welcomed b/c I for one am open-minded and curious about this.
