Snoopy, if you do a little research, you will see these tests have been done-successfully.
I've read in dreams-just can't remember what.
I've been out of body. About three times. Can I prove it? Not to you, but I am convinced myself. Twice, I was both aware of my body in my room..or rather what was going on in my room (a race on tv one time)..
The one deliberate try, I flew down my street in the daytime, saw the neighbor girl sitting on her porch. Came back, got up and checked. She was sitting on her porch.
Another time, it was like I was "out of synch" with time. I heard my daughter cough, as she came home from work. I got up to check on her, and when I got into the hall, I realized I hadn't opened the door to my bedroom. I tried to turn on the light in both the hall and the bathroom. Neither would come on. (of course they wouldn't come on, I wasn't physical and therefore could not manipulate the switch)
I walked into my office across the hall...and that's when I full realized what was going on-I was out of body. That realization brought me right back to my body and awake. About that time, I heard the front door open, my daughter walked in and coughed. (our front door squeaks-needs a shot of WD-40
)
So, what does any of that say? Some obe's are not in the present time either..I think time is different in that realm. Which makes some of these confirmations more difficult also.
