Astral travel, out of body experience - OBE or astral projection is when a person's spirit leaves their physical body. When this happens the person is able to view the world around them from a completely different point of view. Science currently believes that astral projection is impossible based on what they currently know about the laws of physics. A large number of people, somewhere around 15% according to some research reports, have had a out of body experience. OBE's are known to occur during a traumatic experience such as a life threatening accident. Often times the person will report floating above his body near the ceiling at the hospital. They also report that they could watch the operation of their physical body while it was being performed. They have also been able verify, once revived, what was said and what happened. This type of astral projection is called a near death experience - NDE.
A person can also have an out of body experience when in meditation, in a hypnotic trance or when they are sleeping. It is possible for your spiritual body to travel when you have an out of body experience. It has been reported that people have traveled to other countries and even other planets while astral projecting. The most amazing thing, people have verified information that they could not of known unless they had indeed been astral traveling.
Edgar Cayce is well know for going into a trance and giving medical advise to patients all over the globe. He did this while he was sitting at home in a deep trance. Edgar Cayce was widely and thoroughly investigated by doctors, scientist and reporters and they could not uncover any fraud associated with his skills. Most who investigated him came away completely convinced of his talent.
The CIA in the 70's, along with the Department of Defense started a secret research program into astral projection. The term they used was remote viewing and they achieved a measure of success. The purpose of this program was to obtain secrets and information about the enemy. They where also interested in conducting psychic warfare. Some of the known targets are listed below.
A retired Special Project Intelligence Officer for SSPD, SSD, and 902d MI Group, Joe McMoneagle claimed he left the Stargate project in 1984 with a Legion of Merit Award. This was for providing information on over a 100 targets with information could not be obtained in any other manor.
One remote viewer in 1974 described a large airfield with a crane and gantry at one end. This turned out to be the Soviet testing site for Semipalatinsk. This was thought to be a secret under ground nuclear testing area. The data on this was never made public.
A Soviet Tu-95 bomber had crashed in Africa and a remote view was asked to locate the crash site. He apparently did within a couple miles.
The National Security Council asked about a Soviet submarine under construction in 1979. The remote review reportedly described the submarine in great detail, which was later confirmed.
in 1988 a remote viewer correctly located kidnapped Marine Col William Higgins being held in lebanon.
Remote views during the Golf War located where Saddam Hussein was hiding.
Remote viewers where reported to of helped find missiles, biological weapons and tunnels at extensive underground facilities.
The project after being in the hands of several different government agencies was reported to have been terminated in 1995.
Science continues to look for explanations in the known laws of nature, while the human steps beyond what we consider the laws of nature. For many the proof from science is not required to continue their practice of astral projection and other areas of psychic phenomenon. The overwhelming evidence of astral projection and other esp / psychic experiences just can not be ignored.
