Astral projection can only be a real phenomenon

[Ostronomos]

You've been conditioned to believe that this world is actual. This misconception has been correctly disputed by the most recent scientific findings that the world we live in is a matrix and nothing more. There exists dreams that are far far far more real than the appearance of the world about us. After last night I am now 100% sure that when each of us die we travel as an individual spirit complete with senses anew. Whereby the remaining features of this world exists only partly.

I was all excited about astral projection or out of body experiences back in the early 2000's. I read all three of Robert Monroe's books detailing all his journeys in the OOBE realm. I could never do it myself even though I tried. If I did achieve it I'd be scared I wouldn't return to my body. I prefer in body experiences at this point.

I've had OBEs during lucid dreams. It's the vivid detail that makes the latter seem real, but the environment I was hovering in was never the actual, waking one -- only a close approximation.

Astral projection can easily be delusion or imaginary, meaning it definitely isn't "only a real phenomena." But go ahead, astral project to me working tomorrow and tell me what I do for a living.
