Here is a great little website on astral projection theories, and a whole host of possible explanations that explore out of body experiences through the centuries, and how they have been perceived by the peoples of the time.
Remember, the OBE is NOT a new phenomena, rather…..it is a foundational human experience that has been reported throughout the written record of human history.
While we may have more media now to explore it…and more blogs, and skeptics to call it silly, the truth is, we have been exploring the astral realms for thousands of years.
Check out some interesting OBE facts below, and enjoy some cool stuff on astral projection theories from many different vantage points, and historical perspectives!
The notion of the human double has a long and colorful history. Plato gave us an early idea. He believed that what we see in this life is only a dim reflection of what the spirit could see if it were released from the physical. Imprisoned in a gross physical body, the spirit is restricted; separated from that body, it would be able to converse freely with the spirits of the departed, and see things more clearly.
Another idea which can be traced to the Greeks is that we have second body. The spirit or some subtle body would be able to see better without its body. Aristotle taught that the spirit could leave the body and that it is capable of communicating with the spirits, while Plotinus held that all souls must be separable from their physical bodies.
This ‘doctrine of the subtle body’ runs through Western tradition.Homer regarded man as a composite being comprising three distinct entities, namely the body (soma), the ‘psyche,’ and the thumos; this last term is untranslatable, but is always closely associated with the diaphragm/midriff (phrenes), which was considered to be the seat of the will and feeling, perhaps even of the intellect. At this stage (800 – 750 BC) the term psyche had not come to mean personal soul, but rather it represented the impersonal life-principle which dwells in the body but which is unrelated to the intellect and the emotions.
