Thread: astral projection and remote viewing

Partially I'm starting this thread as a place to put a 'remote viewing' thought without making a mess of the lottery thread.

I don't see why numbers would necessarily be hard to remote view. I think it would depend on the person. It seems to me that for whatever reason, some fates or spirits keep track of objects and events with numbers. This is the basis of numerology. Personally I find the idea totally implausible. It seems to be laughably crude compared to laws of physics. But personal experience seems to suggest that there's something to it. I speculate that its not a fundamental part of how nature works, that its a result of how people think about things, but as such its a real paranormal phenomena, not wholly delusional.

Assuming that the experience of astral projection is a human interpretation of something 'deeper', how crucial is that particular interpretation to the essence of what's going on? Most of us think of objects as being located in a 3-dimensional space. I think there's a lot of truth in this thought - it does very a good job of capturing important relationships between objects. But if a person somehow had an alternative way of successfully navigating through one's environment that worked as well, having a 3D experience wouldn't be essential. Is the experience of 'astral projection' essential to whatever is objectively real about it, such as the ability to move physical objects without physically touching them? I'm thinking that its not, but I'm just throwing ideas out there.
