Background
The Mystical Life - J H M Whiteman
The easiest kind of out of body experience to discuss is that in which the physical body and its sense organs appear to be asleep or entranced while the subject himself is singly conscious in another space and body, or possibly multiply conscious in other spaces and bodies. I describe it as full separation. In some cases the space revealed may appear to resemble physical space in character and content. But even then the sense organs by which the phenomena are observed are not located in the physical body, nor are they visible to other people normally conscious in the physical world. So in all cases one is justified in regarding the conscious self as functioning at those times, in a non physical space.
