The Worlds

Inner World – Our personal inner world that exists in our imagination or psyche that can   sometimes connect us to an objective, transpersonal Otherworld.  

Otherworld – The world or reality that exists in parallel with the physical/everyday world, that we visit sometimes in dreams or meditation, and that Druids believe we travel to on the death of the physical body. Used synonymously with the term ‘Spiritworld’.
