Dear Robert.
I have been a practicing occultist for over sixteen years now so I do have my own experiences of the strange and fantastical flukes that sometimes creep into and affect even the physical world.
Astral Projection is of course one of the cornerstones of mystical works and it is something I still need to master myself. However, without real active astral experience some people constantly report my presence
in the astral planes. I was wondering about how common this phenomena is and it seems no one really knows the exact explanation. I was wondering if your mind-split idea could possibly shed light on such
occurences and that one may have projections unknowingly. Though these cases are still strange.
A witch I was working with and helped with training constantly claimed I would visit her and she would see me standing in her room and appearing to her at night. Though I had no knowledge of ever even trying
something like this. She also attended a large ritual once with others and claimed they saw me manifest in one of the priests almost to a physical degree and changing facial features and such. These are not the
only examples of this happening neither did it involve just this one person. I used to have this elderly neighbour on my street who moved away to another city. We did not have that much contact really but we
knew each other. I later heard that she went for a operation on a brain tumour and I am not sure if it was during this operation or during other operations due to complications. Though she had a NDE. Saw her
body being operated on and the hospital around her etc. The strange thing is she claims she saw me. But as an actual physician moving around and helping people. I have no idea why exactly her mind would
think of me and neither have I ever been near that hospital or know anything about being a medical doctor. We never really shared such a close tie that I would think she should see me during her NDE.
I thought these may be interesting and I am wondering what you think about them. I have considered the rational part about a suggestible student and her teacher or an old woman having hallucinations due to
drugs, a tumour or the operation.
Thank you
Hi Daedralord.
I will leave this post here (and make a copy for the Down Under forum) because you clearly asked for Robert's opinion- however the theme has been discussed before (by Robert and others) and I would like to offer at least an initial reply- CF.
