OBE weight and dimension questions.

[Hypernicus]

When you die or have a near death experience you immediately loose some weight, part physical and part astra energi. This has been measured precisely when you die. But shouldn't one also loose some weight when you achieve OBE?

From the book Treatise on Astral Projection by Robert Bruce he writes about The commonly accepted names for the seven known levels of existence, from lowest to highest, are: Physical, Astral, Mental, Buddhic, Atmic, Anupadaka and Adi. Has anyone managed to achieve higher levels, and are the descriptions the same from those who experienced it? I got past the last known dimension, but I'm not even quite sure if it all was a dream, it just happened without trying and it happened once.

I've only ever heard of experiments by Dr. MacDougall who weighed dead people. It gave birth to the famous "the soul weights 21 grams" idea. The problem is, only a few of the bodies he weighed showed signs of loss, one actually gained weight, and his findings have not been reproduced.
So I guess its pretty inconclusive if this weight loss is due to the soul leaving the body.
Also, as far as I am aware, there has not been a recorded case of such weight loss during a NDE.

So the body might not lose weight during death, NDE or OBE as the findings to date are based on a few cases of an experiment which hasn't been reproduced.
