hahaha now thats awesome... but i guess astral projection isnt as well know as i thought it would be. i dont know if its actually possible, but at least the idea of it is interesting (to me at least)

:D that's awesome! can I have a bunny with a pancake on it's head, too? pretty please?

thanks for the link...I've heard of this before, but I've been listening to too many science teachers and I just can't believe that would work.

Maybe the bunny with the pancake can astral-project too?

im pretty skeptical too, but who knows? i havent actually heard anything saying its not true, but i havent heard any actual solid evidence either.

oh, and i found a better link, but its lots of reading. linky (http://www.astralvoyage.com/projection/index.html)

:D *hands a spare bunny to Alinania*

Thanks for the site, i'll read up on it.

I know how to do it... it gets rather boring, and isn't dangerous... rather simple really....

I've always been skeptical about that sort of supernatural stuff. It probably disobeys a basic law of physics somewhere.

No. its all real, we all do it every night when we go to sleep.

anyway fuck that, right now im more interested in the bunny with the pancake on its head

Never seen any proof, or even heard of someone saying they can do it, except in cases of people who died and saw themselves rising from their bodies.

Just talk to someone whose done Ketamine. I haven't, but I hear it's too much for some to handle, with the mind being detached from the body and all.

It's name was Oolong, the equilibrist bunny.

It sounds a lot like self-hypnosis to me.

Is that like an out-of-body experience?

Supposed it's possible, it might be induced through deep meditation and/or psychedelic drugs.

i heard of people telling such experiences after taking peyotes.
or they heard it from people, don't know for sure...

read: it's probably overrated, and it's probably a weird hallucination.

something that disables some brainfunction i guess. like when eating those mushrooms, with a red head and white stips on it (don't know the english word for it, vliegenzwam in dutch). this one disables the ability to compare the size of things. it could make you see things much bigger or much smaller then they actually are.
probably astral projection is when the function to locate yourself fails or something.

don't take my word though, i'm just guessing. ;)

my sister had an art teacher who had found a place to live in a distant city using astral projection. now THATS practical eh?

i, of course, think its a crock of shit.

It's fake. Nobody has ever been able to demonstrate it in an experiment that was properly run. The only experiments where it worked is if the remote viewer has the chance to cheat.

"astral projection" and "remote viewing" are the same as putting a lot of garbage in a toilet and then flushing it untit it gets clogged and overflows.

Two words: Lucid Dreaming.

Holy shit, I really did just laugh out loud.
But, I think most New Age crap makes the same sound as well..

check out this, it's an official us military program which was used astral projection and psychic powers as a weapon. I think so the disembodied spirit could locate terrorists and so on so they could find them. Also there was an x-files episode which delt with this. http://www.carterphile.com/EpGuides/OS/TheWalk.html
