The majority of spiritual wayfarers go along with these accepted beliefs, without question. They practice meditation and other methods to experience the controlled O.B.E and generally there is a phenomenon that is created by having this perception.
But the big problem is, and this is conclusion has been reached after decades of extensive research and dedication to the same theories and beliefs - the big problem is we are highly unlikely to actually be 'in the body' in the first place. We are given the 'illusion' of being within the body, by the way we are hot wired to five senses that trick us into thinking we are in our bodies.
The real truth is completely different to these misguided theories and beliefs. We are observing the physical body and are padlocked to its awareness, so closely the perception of being in the body is so real. We see through its eyes; we have the first person awareness of feeling with its hands, and tasting with its tongue, and hearing with its ears. But it is only the mind/consciousness that is given that awareness.
Our consciousness is actually somewhere else completely, connected into this apparent reality, forced into 'living' a 'life' as the person we appear to be. Our observing consciousness is infinite awareness that has somehow been tethered into a holding space, and forced to experience these 'physical realities'.
A recent withdrawal from the physical realm, and a momentary connection with 'the observer's point of view' presented quite a revelation. The immediate surroundings of that awareness was of a gigantic 'holding space' with thousand upon thousands of identical holding spaces within a storage facility. The observer is trapped as pure awareness in a confinement as are thousands of other observers. The pure awareness appears to have been transported through what we call space as a prisoner, and is unable to escape the holding space.
This realisation comes across as 'pre-physical planes' and a look around the immediate surroundings suggests that the captors were unable to successfully contain pure awareness in a physical body, so they created the means to connect the pure awareness to an artificial physical clone instead and fool the pure awareness into thinking it is in the physical body ...
