Just to put my 2 cents in...
I happened upon my near OBE by shear accident. It was what got me into researching further into what had actually happened to me that day... To me it's like the child reporting a NDE/the light phenomenon without having any preconceived notions of what to expect or report.
I was lying in my bed relaxing every muscle of my body, due to a back injury... I was so focused on relaxation/clearing my thoughts that I began noticing my heart beating uncontrollably... It's not like I was doing jumping jacks, or climbing stairs, or taking ephedrine, I was completely relaxed and stress free. This was surprising to me... I had never heard of/experienced this before. After what seemed to be about 2 min. of this rapid heart beat, my body began vibrating uncontrollably. That's when I felt a "whispy" sensation inside of my physical body... It felt like a soft bedsheet separating/slipping out from the confines of my physical body. That startled me immensly, even though it felt so gentle and comforting... Because I got so startled, it pulled me out of it. I've had dreams before, and I can assure you, this was NO dream... I wasn't even tired when it happened... No where near dreaming/sleeping. It was as real to me as if someone had slapped me in the face and said, "Did that feel like a dream to you?"
After this experience, I began hearnestly searching for anything I could find that would help to explain this away, because I knew of the immense implications of this experience concerning all fascets of life. Again, to reiterate, I had NO preconceived notions of these types of experiences before.
Maybe, and this is IMHO, people have OBE at the point at which they are willing enough/open enough, in conjuction to when they're psyche is stable enough as to not lose touch with they're immediate reality/identity during their normal waking state... So as to say, they are still capable of efficiently functioning in their familiar/immediate surroundings. Moreover, these types of "otherworldy" experiences can play havoc on the mind of someone who is not ready enough (for many reasons) to experience them... They may feel "ready", but their higher guidance may know that they are in fact, not. It's not to say that some are better than others, or that they are somehow "godlier" than others, it's to say that, things happen to different people, at different times, for different reasons... Again, MHO. (These types of experiences are definitely not something to be taken lightly.) -- ...Many ramifications...

P.S. Some immediate confirmation that I received after my experience was when talking with a co-worker in regards to OBE's... He told me a story of when he was a teenager and rolled his car down an embankment, after which he reported hovering above the scene and watching the car do somersaults down the hill; At which point he distinctly heard, telepathically, his grandfather's voice instructing him to get back into his physical body...
