The OBE Phenomenon & out of body experiences
Astral Projection - is it possible?
Astral projection is a type of out-of-body experience (OBE) in which the astral body leaves its other six bodies and journeys far and wide to anywhere in the universe. The notion that we have seven bodies (one for each of the seven planes of reality) is a teaching of theosophist Madame Blavatsky. On its trips, the astral body perceives other astral bodies rather than their physical, etheric, emotional, spiritual, etc. bodies. In an ordinary OBE, such as remote viewing or the out-of-body near-death experience, there is a separation of a person's consciousness from his or her body. In the near-death out-of-body experience, there may be the experience of hovering above and perceiving one's body and environs, and hearing conversations of surgeons or rescue workers tinkering with one's body. In astral projection, it is the astral body, not the soul or consciousness, that leaves the body. The astral body, according to Madame Blavatsky, is the one that has an aura. It is also the seat of feeling and desire, and is generally described as being connected to the physical body during astral projection by an infinitely elastic and very fine silver cord, a kind of cosmic umbilical cord or Ariadne's thread.
There is scant evidence to support the claim that anyone can project their mind, soul, psyche, spirit, astral body, etheric body, or any other entity to somewhere else on this or any other planet. The main evidence is in the form of testimonials.

First Experience
I have been a seeker ever since I can remember. Since childhood I've wondered about what happens when we die; is there something out there, always believing in my heart that we are immortal. If I pondered that this might not be true, it filled me with despair and terror; but somehow I felt there was more to our physical existence.
Reading various ancient texts, the Bible, the Koran, the Bhagavad-Gita, the Upanisads, the Vedas, from all cultures western and eastern; never seemed to answer my questions. Not until I picked up Tibetan Book of the Dead, did things start falling into place. The book had such a strange effect on me. It is hard to describe the way my mind was reeling and my hands would sweat, but nonetheless; I continued. I was in such a state of mind, that I needed to meditate, do various yoga techniques that I had read about, just to stabilize my emotions.
During the nights ahead for the next few weeks, my sleep would become interrupted in a most unsettling way. I would wake up paralyzed and surrounded by a darkness that was terrifying. Heartbeats or any physical sensations were completely absent. Terror filled my mind.
This is death? No! I fought to break free, to move my arms, to get up. Slowly I would regain my sensations and was able to move again. What was that? That was so unsettling, but everything was normal again.
Several nights after that, this would occur again. Then a few more times I endured this horrifying experience. One night, I finally gave in. I thought to myself: I must know what this is, I must not fear it, even if it kills me. I MUST KNOW.
I waited. The blackness engulfed me again, no heartbeat, no sensation, no anything. I waited. I listened. I hear a noise from the blackness. I listened carefully. The sounds I could distinguish were fire burning, water as a huge waterfall, earth shaking as in an earthquake, and wind as in a hurricane; all happening simultaneously. The intensity escalated. I focused my attention between my forehead. I see a shimmering blue light coming down in the shape of a pyramid, engulfing me. I reached my thoughts to the source of this blue light. Brighter and brighter the light would become. A small beam of white light appeared in my forehead. I focussed on the white light. It became a part of me. I became a part of it. I traveled what seemed like a great distance, moving through a tunnel of light, from the center of my forehead, only to exit the tunnel from the base of my skull above my neck. I flew out of my body. I was ecstatic, I was at free at last, I WAS HOME. Not in my body, but hovering above it, looking down at it as if it were an empty shell.
This seemed so familiar to me when I wanted to move in this new body. I didn't seem to have any substance or matter but I wanted to move. As that thought of movement occurred, a shimmering neon green glow appeared in front of my consciousness as it formed into what I remember as my hand. All I had to do was stretch my hand in the direction I wanted to move and I would go there. Passing through walls, closed doors, floors and ceilings was easy as a thought.
All the while I enjoyed the freedom of no physical body, just the body of thought and consciousness; I sensed access to other places, beings of light around me. Gateways to other dimensions, for lack of a better term. For a split second a knew the storehouse of all knowledge, my life, my previous lives, and the multi-dimensional nature of the universe. I have never felt more alive. As astounding as this sounds, I never had the chance to reach through one of the gateways, or merge with one of the light beings. I had a thought.
I thought, how easy would it be to re-enter my physical body? Then exit again at will whenever I wanted. As soon as I had that thought, I was pulled by an incredible force, (as an elastic band being released), back into my physical body. Damn it! The power of thought is too strong. The slightest thought of returning sent me back.
This event happened to me 16 years ago. Every day I remember this. Since then, I have lost my fear of death; even so far as looking foward to it. In the meantime, I've had some success with projecting at will. None is as astounding as that first unexpected time.

About 9 years ago, I had what I now know to be an OBE. My father had just died and I attribute my experience to the creator giving me the wonderful gift of escape. (from the daily pain and grief)
I went to sleep, only to be jolted into consciousness by what I could only describe as an intense vibration. I was frozen and terrified. (I had never heard of an OBE) I remember praying that god would allow me fully awaken and release me from this state. I was filled with a knowing that if I would relax the feeling would go away. I resisted relaxation out of fear. finally I gave in...as I separated, I recall a short, but intense, pain throughout my body. (probably because I did not exit correctly)
I floated around my room and though the house. I heard music...children's voices singing some type of chant. This was frightening, but I could not deny the most wonderful feeling of PEACE and calm. I was filled with an urge to go UP. (like a balloon filled with helium!) So I floated through the ceiling and into the deep black sky. I saw milllions of stars and drew myself closer to them. Then, I remember thinking that I might get lost and not find my way back...and BAM... I was back in my bed!!!
About five years later...I was napping and instantly recognized the fimiliar vibration. I tried with all my might to relax my mind and go with the sensation...so desperate to have the experience again!!! I relaxed and pulled out of my body...only I remained connected at the base of my spine...This was (once again) physically painful for me...as I "sat up" in bed, I held my hand up and saw this astounding magenta glow outlining my invisible hand and arm...I was so shocked that I instantly jolted back into my body!!!
Thanks for allowing me to share...These aren't experiences that one can talk about too freely!!! And yet, it so important that we DO!

I had an experience in February of this year when I went to visit my grandmother in Central Oregon. Just as I was settling myself in bed for sleep, when suddenly I felt a rush of overwhelming energy penetrate throughout my whole body. I had a sense of a free-falling type feeling. There was this bright white light in my vision (and it was pitch dark in my room). Then I felt myself flying at a high speed. I did not feel anything beneath me, and I was aware that my arms were back and my feet were apart, but that it didn't feel like what my limbs usually feel. During this, I heard whispers all around me. I didn't know what they were saying but felt like they were reassuring me of love. I felt like they were saying something of my identity. I feel that these voices came from angels, reminding me that they are with me all the time, and this was a gift from them. I feel honored I experienced this. Anyway, I just flew, sometimes downward or upward...no particular direction. That's why I got dizzy. There was definitely no direction I could sense. When I came to, It reminded me of the process a skydiver flaring (slowing down the parachute just before landing on the ground.) When I "touched down", I felt myself go back into my body, the quiet dark room, and on the bed where my body was. It seemed like this went on for about 2 minutes.
I have no idea why this happened at that time and place. I will never know perhaps. I just hope I can experience this again. It was literally a breath taking experience. What a trip!

In 1979 I was living in a large size Attic that I shared with a friend, one night we were sitting on the carpet talking to each other, when something started happening to me.
A wonderful and inexplicable filing of electric current was going through my body at the same time that I was seeing on a different plane, like in an other dimension, different kinds of living beings, moving in different directions. And I was understanding what was going on without hearing any sound, is like everybody just knew where to go and exactly when.
It seemed to me that they were beings that were checking with a group of four superior beings to be born as humans in planet earth, to come and have the human experience. But I also understood that everyone was being borne of exactly the parents they deserve to have, to have the live that they deserved as price or punishment, with all the opportunities to be better or worse according to his free will.
I also understood that everyone was coming from different lives in different dimensions and provably different planets in the universe, and this time it was humans.
When this vision or what ever that was, began to happened I asked my friend to be quite and I started to describe to him what I was seeing, it lasted a few wonderful seconds and I have remembered it for the rest of my life, I do not have an explanation for it, and I know I was not remembering a dream, it was really happening.

Telepathy and Telekinesis
We have all read books and seen movies about people (and aliens) with supernatural, mental powers. Well, at least some of us have read books ... Regardless of the source of enlightenment, the underlying motive is the same: living beings of terrestrial and extra-terrestrial origin can communicate and/or manipulate objects by thought only. Usually, the genre of these books and movies is science fiction - meaning there's some technobabble involved and the events take place in a virtual reality that has little chance of being replayed in our world. However, this is not quite true ...
In this article, I'm going to do something rather unorthodox - I'm going to contradict myself, deliberately, in order to prove that:
Telepathy and telekinesis are indeed possible.
Telepathy and telekinesis are impossible.
While this may be slightly difficult to digest in classic terms of a common mind, it fits well into the quantum world that we're going to dive in. To be or not to be is the old, classic way. To be AND not to be is more applicable.
What am I talking about, you say?
Simply put, the human mind does not require mechanical tools - like eyes, mouth or arms - to interact with the outside world. However, for any such interaction to be 'felt' in any significant way, these mechanical means are a necessity. On quantum level, everything works well. On a macroscopic level, it does not.
Let's elaborate - telepathy first ...
Telepathy
You have all undergone the following experiences - at least once: You're thinking about something or singing a song inside your head when someone nearby begins humming the same tune. You're thinking about someone when the phone rings.
Cold logic tells us that these events occur mainly between related people, who are quite likely to enjoy the same repertoire of songs. Likewise, it's not unusual that friends want to call one another. All in all, it fits the chaos of unpredictable human behavior.
Let's take this one step further, though ...
For all things physical to 'exist,' some sort of information propagation and interaction must exist. We must agree that thoughts are real and that they lead to results. Defining the thought can be tricky and belongs to philosophical and meta-physical circles, but whatever it is, it's some sort of energy, being registered by different sensors inside and outside our heads.
Nevertheless, up until now, the thought has not been measured or quantified. We can see the side effects of the brain activity, but there has been no conclusive observation of the thought, per se. Now comes the conjecture of this article: thoughts are carried by the weak force.
Here's how it goes. Information inside the brain is transmitted via electrical current, gated by voltage-dependent sodium channels in the cell membranes. This process is quite stochastic and does not explain rational thought on its own.
However, were this processes also responsible for yet another interaction, that of momentum transfers between interacting particles in the cell membrane, it could lead to the creation of the change-neutral Z bosons, one of the carriers of the weak force, which decays into neutrino and anti-neutrino.
The Z boson is heavy and short lived and dies shortly thereafter. The neutrino and anti-neutrino are almost massless and have a very small cross-section, which means they rarely, if ever, interact with other particles. Theoretically, they should never ever do anything significant within our bodies. Luckily, the extent of interaction of neutrino particles with matter has hardly been studied and is not very well understood, making this article all the more exciting.
Can you guess what I'm thinking? Focus!
Suppose that our brain receptors are also capable of collecting neutrinos. Neutrino flavor could be used to encode information, in a sort of a binary language, transmitted, let's say, via neutrino oscillation. Combined with the current running through carefully mapped neural network, this could be analogous to information traffic that takes places on the Internet. Active neurons are the routing grid, while the neutrinos are the actual packets of data. The reception and the decoding still remain a mystery - a subject for another article.
This could explain why we suddenly have 'random' thoughts or the fact we cannot 'feel' the flow of thoughts. If they are indeed triggered by a balanced reaction between nerve cell voltages and light-fast neutrinos, then there's no way of grasping them.
This might also point out why thoughts are so elusive. Neutrinos are hard to detect. And no human has been placed inside a particle accelerator, making impossible an attempt at a simulated brain activity session recorded via external sensors.
How does this relate to telepathy? Well, neutrinos (and anti-neutrinos) are not limited to the confines of our cranium and could easily escape, without getting caught in our receptors. These neutrinos could then propagate to another person's head and trigger a 'hacker' reaction, by producing unsolicited thought chains.
All together, this method of brain functioning could explain many things, sudden, random thoughts, deja vu - and also how we're able to 'pick' another's thoughts.
What are the chances of this happening?
It depends on many factors, including the brain activity of the host directly relating to the number of neutrinos created, the proximity to another person, and lastly the other person's ability to collect 'stray' neutrinos and turn them into useful information.
Distance plays a major factor. A given, constant number of neutrinos will propagate, on average, as a spherical wave, covering an ever larger area, causing the particle flux to drop proportionally with the square of distance. In practical terms, a person one meter away from the host has a 100 times higher chance of getting hit by a telepathy neutrino than one 10 meters apart. Getting hit by a neutrino emitted by someone a few kilometers away becomes an almost impossibility.
This means that telepathy is most likely to occur between people close together, mostly likely friends or relatives, which fits the existing logical explanations.
The person's ability to collect 'stray' neutrinos can also be attributed to the relation between people. Friends and relatives are more likely to have similar ideas, thoughts and habits, sharing a similar neural pattern. Which means their brains are more likely to purposefully exploit 'stray' neutrinos that those of a complete strange. Again, this can explain why siblings, especially twins, can sometimes seem to have 'magical' telepathy powers, when they are merely using one another's packets to form useful traffic.
It also explains why we have a hard time concentrating when there are lots of people around us. This is particularly true for men, whose brains are bigger and thus more susceptible to telepathic jamming.
Likewise, this explains why telepathy has never been put to any good use. Distance is the key, as well as the compatibility between transmitter and receiver. And even then, only fractions of useful information is decoded properly, making any precise and controlled use of telepathy rather impractical. We have had a great success with songs because they use are using harmonic waves that can be easily interpreted by a relatively small amount of data, as manifested by Fourier series.
Telekinesis
We're on the same ground here, however, this time, we're using our neutrinos in collimated beams to transfer momentum to foreign objects. Given the neutrinos' reluctance to interact with matter, this makes this rather difficult, but not impossible. The real limitation is the actual quantity of energy that we can dedicate to the task at hand.
The energy that each neutrino carries is minuscule. An electron neutrino has a mere 2.2eV, approx. as much as a photon of visible light. Heavier neutrinos, which are most likely never generated inside our heads, do have higher energies (approx. 170KeV and 15MeV). We'll talk about them separately, merely as a force multiplier.
Moving an object that weighs 1kg to a height of 1 m requires approx. 10J of energy - due to gravity force of about 10N for the said object. Assuming that we want to do this in a reasonable amount of time, let's say 1 s, we'll require 10W of power from our brain.
No matter how hard you try, you ain't never gonna get those objects moving, unless you get excited and your fingers accidentally touch them
A simple calculation yields that we need a focused beam of approx. ~ 3·1018 neutrinos, all of which fully interact with our object, a 100% yield in layman's terms.
Let's make a comparison with our Sun. On average, 50 trillion neutrinos, generated in the Sun pass through the human body every second. For the sake of simplicity, let's assume that the human body measures 1m2. Similarly, Sun irradiates approx. 1,000W of power per square meter on Earth surface.
The last piece of information that we need is the distance from the Sun, approx 1 AU (150 million km). This means that the average flux of neutrinos at Sun's surface is 6.75·1034 neutrinos, through a human size target, every second. So, adjusting to our desired target (3·1018), we need 'only' 4.4·10-17, a mere 1.7·1010 Watts! Heavier neutrinos would bring this down by a few orders of magnitude, but nothing dramatic.
The trickiest part in the puzzle would be how to achieve a narrowly focused beam of particles using the brain muscles only, but this might be possible if a conscious control of the brain activity were to be achieved. Lastly, let's not forget the neutrino-matter interaction.
So even if our brain were capable of much more efficient neutrino generation, the power would still be considerable, way, way beyond what the human body can contain. And even then, the efficiency of telekinesis would be miserable. And would probably work for very, very small distances and small objects. It might be possible to stir a flake of dandruff on one's scalp using thought power only - but then, you don't need telekinesis for that.
However, this might explain why we can sometimes feel other people "staring" at us; it's the pressure of their wicked neutrinos tingling the sensitive receptors in our brains.
Back to aliens and superheros
So now let's examine our fictional characters. Aliens with big heads? Well, not big enough. So telepathy might work for them, but certainly no telekinesis. Superheroes? Gimme a break. They would supernova before turning famous. Superman would probably drain the Universe of every possible neutrino before making one of his spectacular rescues.
Conclusion
Nothing physical bars either from occurring. But they are beyond the current ability of our brains. One day, we might master the subtlety of thought, but moving objects by surreptitious blinking and furrowing of the brow will probably never work like in the movies. For now, we can make excuses with our favorite songs and enjoy cheap FX tricks.
