awareness

[iamkuljuarenot]

Many people believe that out of body experiences, astral projection, and lucid dreams are one in the same, it just depends on awareness.  Obviously we have created distinctions between these terms.  My question is, when I have an out of body experience via exiting my body during vibrations, why am I more aware then I have ever been during a lucid dream?

Perhaps your focus is more improved in the same realm...the realm of thoughts. The distinctions made could simply be due to the different modes of awareness and the different ways in which the state is entered. It may have nothing to do with different environments. Here's a question for you to ponder over:

Why is it that sometimes OOBEs can turn into dreams and vice versa?
