do you acculy leave the body?

Just a thought, but...

Since we're all "one" consciousness... what one consciousness experiences, all consciousnesses have available... perhaps only on a completely subconscious, unknowable level to the individual.  This explains to me the ability to experience a location which you have never personally ever visited.

Your statement reminded me of a program I watched about acquired savants. These are people who have some sort of physical trauma to their brain in some way and then fully recover only they now have an extraordinary talent. They are not idiot savants (pardon the term but it isn't mine) since they recover with no ill effects.

The top neurologist from John Hopkins said he believed was only possible because these new skills were already programmed into the brain and were suddenly accessible due to the trauma. That's a taboo statement to make for someone in his field and with his stature.

That's a neat theory but the "one" consciousness would explain it as well.

I read a book about a really interesting NDE where other beings that she believed were part of her soul group could share and take part in her experiences from any point of view. They could experience it from her point of view or anyone else's who was involved.

It would make sense that we should able to do this in AP as well. I think our experiences become part of a collective experience "database" that is accessible by all conscious entities.

I think we do actually leave our bodies I did a test and someone felt that I was out also I felt good after I came back.

I like this one but how does it function when you 'percieve' say Saturn and a probe shows an exact copy 20+ years later?
This is where things become hard to explain.

I think when you project you actually leave the physical realm in a different kind of energy body (spirit) to the astral, dream, or otherwise known after life plain.  I think this cause, when you die... Your body breaks down, so what happens to that, 'concious' part of you? Not your mind, but that part of you that expiriences what your body/mind perceives?  Let's just call it your "soul"  I don't think it just goes POOF. Lol, I think when we sleep the body needs to rest but our soul does not need to rest, so it leaves the body, and this is dreams, and also projections. Well that's what I think, I don't dismiss any other theories.

If you get the chance to read this book it will open your mind to so much more.
Assume we are living in a flatland version of the wider reality. This may aid many unanswered questions on our limited perception of the whole. There's vids on YT too, check out Carl Sagans flick.
