I also go along with what xanth is saying in this world is non physical world in some ways, but of course feels physical to our senses. So we could agree its physical to humans and at some level. But in reality its still an illusion. We see the world as our consciousness allows us, not as it really is. But then we are splitting hairs again lol
I'm new to this forum but I am an experienced projector. I have to say that I absolutely reject the idea that we are not living in a physical reality right now. Especially that we are experiencing a collective conscience NPR. The reason is all the "evil, hate, bad energy" what ever you prefer to call it, that is prevailing. I believe that good is the strongest, the largest, and most predominant force there is. Therefore, if we were all experiencing an NPR held by our collective consciences wouldn't that mean there would be a lot less "evil" right now, right here. I think this is the reality where all the bad can run a muck and how we let it affect us individually will determine the work we will have to do next.
Since I have never felt any kind of physical pain (just odd sensations) during an OBE, I think that pain is something we need to feel in the physical right here to better understand it and use that knowledge to work thru what we have to in the next. I think if we had to deal with pain physically in the next, it would be a big hindrance to our spiritual growth.
Hope I wasn't to literal. If I didn't make sense, keep in mind that I am trying to reconcile my Christian beliefs with what I am starting to learn and experience with the NPR. I love this website.
