As many of you may know, or not, it has been proven by science that all that surrounds us, everything is made of energy. Taking this into consideration we advance into another concept radiation, a by product of energy.

Taking these 2 things we can put them together and try and understand a phenomena that is understood in parapsychology(more into it) and in various spiritual practices as an aura.
Auras are a very subtle and invisible to the naked eye slight radiation that surrounds one's body. In a non religious way, it is general belief that everything has an aura and its quite understandable since all is made of energy, something more than others.

A very curious thing that many believe in concerning auras is that their color, or the colors of its various layers show various things about the person, such as mood, feelings and thoughts thus creating a group of people that dedicate themselves to aura reading techniques.
It is said that every color of the aura representes an exact emotional state and its very easy to accurately tell one's mood or feelings by aura reading.


Auras are depicted as well in various religions, Buddhism per example depicts the various colors of ones aura in their flag as well as the colors of the chakras(more on it). In western mysticism, like the Kabala, the aura is a sort of outer contor of the astral body(more here) within.

It is believed in many cultures and religions that we are not only a physical body, we're not made of only flesh and bone. Many beleive in the existence of an inner self, a soul if you prefer it that way, our conscious form, where emotions, feelings and thoughts are somewhat stored.

Due to our perception of only the physical and our limitations we don't usually are aware of anything else besides this physical form we see. But what if it was possible, in a conscious and fully aware manner, to actually expand our consciousness beyond our body? To leave the body and not be restricted by physics laws of gravity and space?

The basics of these out of body experiences are simple, when in one, you leave your earthly body and simply wander in your etheral one.

This is a matter that has been studied by many and many others have shunned upon it, but no matter which side one might be on, its still interesting to look into it.

 The general reported feeling that people say they felt when in an Out of Body Experience(OBE) is one of floating, drifting out of their physical body and being able to watch themselves laying down. It has also been reported that during an OBE people can do all sorts of things, fly to very distance places, visit friends, family and even meet their spirit guides(we'll later talk about these). There are limitations of course there's no way to communicate with the physical world, either through sounds or touch or anything, since you're not in the same realm at the time.

There are various forms of OBE inducing techniques, some more controled than others, which are the following:

 - During sleep - There are cases of people spontaneously having an OBE during sleep, sometimes can be mistaken with Lucid Dreaming(another subject for later).

- Near-death experiences - when in an almost dead state, either during a surgery or accident, people have said to see themselves in the accident or hospital bed.

 - Induced - Mechanical(with audio called binaural beats) or mental, which can be trained with tie and patience, through meditation and control of one's consciousness.


Many of you might be asking: well if you actually leave your body, can't anything or anyone doing the same thing as you get inside while you're "out"? Well, there are no reports of such thing as a possession(more on it later) and its believed to be related to a thing all people see when in an OBE, which is a silver thread that seems to link the physical and spiritual body's fronthead, its not limited by length nor does it seem to break.

Welcome to Outer Realm, a simple blog meant to expose and focus on the out of the ordinary, non physical aspects of our lives. Its meant to explain, entertain and maybe even clarify some of the world's most known or not things, that many believe in, about the spiritual world, regardless of religious view, this will be a blog open to anyone.

In my daily life I notice the lack of so many things and lack of explaination to many others. If you're a person that believes in some out of this physical Earth things, welcome! If you're not, welcome as well, you might find this entertaining too!
