I need to clarify one mistake you made. I didn't state that dreaming occurs in the Alpha state.

Quote:
What I intended to say is that OBE / lucid dreaming / astral projection are focuses of attention into the imagination plane, that is a non-physical plane, but it isn't the same as the afterlife plane. Whatever you experience there isn't less 'real" than the reality we perceive consciously in the physical. I don't equate making up stuff" with dreaming, OBE, etc..

Imagination means to formulate new ideas without the senses. I wonder if we're really just disagreeing the semantics not the concepts here. The location of the spirit realm, where I consider OBE's, NDE's and perhaps past life regression to be occurring is not in the imagination plane.

Past life regression hypnosis where people can re-experience OBE's, NDE's and "lives between lives" occurs in the Theta state.

Take care

The reason why I use God/source interchangeably is because it's one syllable. And when I say that term, most people know what I'm talking about.

Yeah, I use God/Universe/Creater interchangeably depending on who I am speaking to. I just wish I could settle on what feels right to me. I think this is the big issue I am dealing with at this time. Another learning experience. It seems to be on my mind a lot lately. Good. It will be nice to settle into what I define 'God' as being for me.
