Separation of Soul and Body.. Astral Projection Between Reality and Fiction
Alalam24, While the idea of astral projection fascinates and intrigues many, its veracity remains a subject of debate and controversy.
What is astral projection?
It is a purported ability that allows an individual to enter a state of deep calm, where they leave their physical body entirely and project themselves onto an astral plane. This virtual plane is believed to not exist concretely, but is accessible through the spirit or consciousness, acting as a link between the spiritual world and the material world inhabited by humans in their physical bodies.
The idea of leaving the body during dreams is not new. Some even claim that individuals can communicate with the cosmic intelligence through dreams during astral projection.
Scientists do not believe in the reality of these experiences, deeming them rather as mere imaginations and meditations.
How does astral projection happen?
Those who practice it liken it to a dream, but with full consciousness. Its goal is to transcend the physical entity through the mind, leaving the physical body submissive. The experience takes place entirely in the mind and can be triggered by meditation or dreaming.
To skeptics, astral projection is just a meditative experience with no proven scientific basis. They see it only as moments of relaxation and imagination, nothing more.
Some believe that the human being is composed of multiple bodies, the most important of which is the etheric or astral body, capable of separating from the physical body and traveling to other dimensions. However, this theory is refuted by science and most religions.
The question remains open to debate. The fascination it exerts is undeniable, while it also raises doubt and controversy.
