Is the astral our real home

[majour ka]

Hi, Ive mulled over the thought now for some time how the astral plane is our real home. I'm not saying the physical plane isn't...but maybe the astral is a greater reality or like a central mother ship, for the want of a better analogy.
Firstly let me point out, I love this life and I'm in know hurry to leave it yet!  but here are my points.

> We exist here for a limited amount of time, IE a maximum of a hundred years if we do really well. Yet we can and are at times quit happy to exist in the astral indefinitely. I know some one whos guide has been there 500 hundred years for example.

> The people in the astral are aware of not just their current existence, but of their previous lives, Not just of  them selves but of us and the greater picture of all the universe and humanities place in it all. How many people here are aware of some of that? let alone all of it. We lose the memory of our previous lives and in between lives state, yet regain it when we return...are we returning home?

>Those in spirit are able to observe us ( not often the other way round ) and gently guide us, do we do that for them?

> We drift into the astral in our sleep, do the they drift into the physical plane when they rest? doubt it.

> We have outta body experiences, with the exception of trance medium ship is it the other way round? again I think not.

> In an expanded state of conciseness every thing becomes more real, not the other way round, IE expanded conciosness we expiience in a non physical state
I could go on or talk about each point at greater length.

Maybe these are valid points and maybe they are not? or maybe I'm just echoing what others have said all along. But as I grow spiritually and my mediumistic ability's strengthen the more it feels this way to me.

The point could also be made that this physical plane is not only our real home, but the only thing we have. All of our mental and astral experiences could be nothing more than abilities made possible by the physical body (brain, nerves, electrical conductivity, etc.).

For the record, I am not saying that the metaphysical things we experience are not "real." As I've said before, I think folks confuse themselves tremendously by throwing that "real" word around too much.

I have had a few "real" mind-blowing experiences in the metaphysical realm. I can't explain them and am still trying to recapture and improve on them. However, the pure unvarnished fact remains that any experience we have could result from physical causes -- including NDEs, OBEs, mind-reading -- the whole bunch.

Right now, if I had to vote today, I would say the physical world is all there is. But I would be delighted to be proven wrong!  :confused:
