Soul Series Part 2: Out-Of-Body Experience/Astral Projection
Is It Possible?

I
never ask anyone to replace their own beliefs with mine. I respect everyone’s
beliefs because they come from a place of their own perceptions. People believe
what they believe based on their experiences…that are a very personal thing to
each individual. And who are we to judge others’ experiences? The only thing I wish for my readers is to
make them think about things a little differently and try to imagine different
possibilities. So here I go again.
In
Western society, we’re used to believing that body and soul are mutually
exclusive. And after explaining a possible practical way to wrap one’s mind
around the idea of a living soul in Part 1, I want to take us a step further. If
the soul IS in fact real, then does it take on a life of its own, and can it
separate from the body? Are near death experiences (NDE’s) and astral projection
really possible? Let’s just try to imagine it for just a moment.
If
the soul is our energy source, then science can be applied to the subject, in a
manner of speaking. Science tells us that energy can’t be destroyed. It can only
move or change its form.
So,
imagine for a moment that your body is just an organism. A mass of living
tissue. What if it’s the soul, our energy source, that makes it a thinking,
feeling human? What if one relies on the other to make it what it is? The body
would rely on the soul to give it life and character. But interestingly also,
the soul would require a body, a physical instrument, in order to create a
visual image of the energy of what the soul is trying to say.
I.E.
it would be impossible for the soul to manifest a smile on its own. And
invisible entity/energy source can’t smile. It needs a mouth to do that.
Ambitions on their own would be futile without an actual body to move this
energy source forward. To have a thought to do something isn’t enough. We need
the body combined with the mind to make things happen in our lives. Neither can
exist on their own. So could it be that
we think of the body and soul as one complete entity because they are so tightly
tied to each other?
Or are they?
This
organism we call our body wears out. And it eventually will die. But often the
“energy” we feel in our “soul” doesn’t match what our body can accomplish,
especially when we get older. How often do older people complain, “My spirit is
willing, but my body won’t cooperate.”
Could it be that the energy source I’m calling the soul is still every
bit as strong as it was the day we were born…like any other energy source? Could
it be that it’s not diminished in the least because, scientifically speaking,
energy can’t be destroyed?
So
if we can follow this, it begs a few profound questions.
Just
exactly what happens to this energy source, the soul, when we die? It can’t be
destroyed. According to science, it must move or change its form. So where does
it go? What does it become?
Many
religions attempt to answer this question. But what if a little tiny bit of
science can also be applied? Let me ask
you this: If you’ve ever lost a loved one, did you ever feel their presence was
still lingering around you for a time after they passed? Did it seem there was still “energy” around
you that you felt was their energy? What if that energy is an actual
scientifically stated, tangible energy form like any other energy form? What if,
after this person’s body has died, the person’s energy, life force, essence, or
soul is still just hanging around you for a time?
Thousands of people claim to have,
at one time, had an out-of-body experience, (OOB) or astral projection or what
they referred to as a near death experience when they faced a near-fatal injury
or illness. They experienced the sensation of leaving their body and looking
down on it from above. And they claim they still had a sense of themselves. They
knew who they were and they knew the body below had belonged to them. But for
some reason, they returned to that body and resumed their lives. And afterward,
they could recall what had happened to them. Are these people dreaming, or
simply crazy? Or does the soul or energy force simply leave a body that has died
and can no longer serve the purpose the soul requires of it? If the soul can no
longer use this body as an instrument, does it take its business elsewhere? And
if so, where does it go?
Those
of us who delve in cryptozoology and the paranormal are faced every day with
accepting new avenues of thought. And we’re lucky that our minds are challenged
in such a way. It’s hard for us to say
that one strange thing exists, but another couldn’t possibly. We have to remain
open to a broader world and all its possibilities. This is just one more thing
to consider.
Keep in mind, I’m not asking anyone to believe
anything I say. But to only just imagine the implications of this. Imagine what
this means if it’s even close to being true. Of course, we’ll probably never
know for sure in our lifetime, but it’s an exercise in a whole new world of
thought. And I’ll dive into that a
little deeper next week.
Stay
tuned for part 3. ********DF

The O.B.Es are a subject of much debate and controversy. It is true that the soul can exist out of the body. Many parapsychologists have agreed to this point that Out of body experiences are possible, but some have anticipated this idea. Robert Monroe, an American businessman, had himself experienced this and founded a university to help learn how to willfully induce such an OBE.
