There are numerous medical studies in the internet that provides information about the phenomena of Astral Projection. However, all these results are misleading due to the fact that the author has experienced, examined, and experimented first hand these illusions that are thought to be metaphysical or paranormal.
According to Lawsin, who newly revised the theories on life and consciousness based on Selfness, the Soul doesn't exist. It might sound paradoxical but in many of his Out Of Body personal experiences and experiments, he empirically concluded that the soul is just a pigment of ones imagination. His primary evidence lies on the phenomenon of Astral Projection itself and the misconceptions that comes along with it.
First, AP practitioners believe that the soul detaches from its physical body from head and leaves away the feet. This is a big blunder. Believers should know that the soul, assuming it exists, gradually projects upward from the feet and ends detaching itself from the head and not the other way around as ALL literature in astral projection depict. Common sense will tell you why.
Second, Astral projection is a process. To experience such phenomena, there are four phases that must transcribed:
(i) The TRANCE Phase
1. Lying on the right or left side with body in a crouching position
2. Recalling activities that happened on that day or previous days
3. Feeling the sense of drifting with a mildly awake mind
4. Jerking once
5. Moments of total silence
6. Sleeping
(ii) The PROJECTION Phase
7. Total darkness
8. "Mentally awake" but physical body is asleep
9. Eyes closed, sees "soul" detaching away from the body
10. "Soul" detaches slowly, starting from the feet and separating last off the head
11. The sensation of floating begins
(iii) The TRANSFORMATION Phase
11. Seeing the physical body, sleeping on its side, from a distance
12. Realizing a new body very different in its composition and characteristics from the physical body
13. Seeing all physical objects in the room even in total darkness (clue of consciousness)
14. Conflicting fear of dying or coming back to life
15. Deciding to stay alive by fighting the fear of death.
(iv) The RETURN Phase
16. Trying to speak or call for help but no words come out of the mouth
17. Trying to move parts of the body but unable to do so
18. Silently shouting earnestly to trigger movements
19. One or two fingers start to wiggle
20. Sensation of numbness in areas where the whole body is resting
21. Awareness and assessment of the physical surroundings
22. Going back to sleep in a comfortable position.
Third, the standard notion of the soul or spirit is totally misinterpreted and should be newly defined in a different light. Astral projection is an illusion created by a "dying" or disoriented mind. It is a by-product of the mind in an irregular or abnormal environmental and bodily conditions. When the body and mind are acting differently from its normal ways, various psychiatric and behavioral disorders eventually crop up.
Fourth, some people believe that the physical body and the spiritual soul are two bodies in one form. However according to Lawsin, the physical body is not made up of only one but two astral entities or two souls. There are actually three personalities present: two abstract entities and one physical body. The three parts in existance are the astral entity returning, the physical body on the bed and the one watching. (the watcher tells us that the soul is not real). This phenomena is what he named The Astral Twin Paradox.
Fifth, the soul is simply a product of ones imagination. In one of his AP experiments, Lawsin asked his brother to place a piece of paper with a handwritten secret word on top of a cabinet where his astral entity (soul) usually hovers. The experiment was designed to prove if the secret word can be uncovered by the soul when it leaves the body the next time an OOB episode occurs. The word to this day still remains unread. In another experiment, he made a bold agreement with his father. He suggested that whoever dies first, one must come back to tell the truth about the existence of the soul. Yet, Lawsin said, "My father died a few years ago, but until to this day I am still waiting for him to show up in spirit with my mother and my dog Zero on his side".
