OOBE TERMS

[edit]
  • These are all terms from Robert Monroe's influential books on the subject of Out-of-body experiences, more can be found at the subreddit.
  • OOB
  • Out of body
  • Out-of-body
  • Out of body experience
  • Out-of-body-experience
  • Second Body : 1971 Robert Monroe Doubleday & Company, Inc. page 41:
  • "In the obscure history of mankind, it is an entirely different matter. The word "astral" has dim origins in early mystical and occult events which involve witchcraft, sorcery, incantations, and other seeming foolishness which modern man looks upon as silly and superstitious nonsense. As no attempt was made to delve deeply into this area, I still don't know what the word "astral" means. Thus I prefer to stick to the terms "Second Body" and "Second State.""
  • "The most consistent problem encountered in associating with the underground has been to avoid submergence of the analytical approach in the vast morass of theological thought and belief. Once, not too long ago, man thought electricity was God; before that, the sun, lightning, and fire. Our sciences told us these ideas were ridiculous, and tried to show us through experimentation. Perhaps the Second Body operating in the Second State can provide the quantum jump to prove God empirically. Then there will be no more underground."
  • Locale I: also called Here-Now
  • "Locale I is the most believable. It consists of people and places that actually do exist in the material, well-known world at the very moment of the experiment. It is the world represented to us by our physical senses which most of us are fairly sure does exist. Visits to Locale I while in the Second Body should not contain strange beings, events, or places. Unfamiliar, perhaps, but not strange and unknown. If the latter is the case, then perception is distorted."
  • body of light --crowley term called a second body, also called astral body, subtle body, body of glory, spirit-body, radiant body, luciform body, augoeides, astroeides, starry body, sidereal body, and celestial body.
  • Second State :
  • "In the obscure history of mankind, it is an entirely different matter. The word "astral" has dim origins in early mystical and occult events which involve witchcraft, sorcery, incantations, and other seeming foolishness which modern man looks upon as silly and superstitious nonsense. As no attempt was made to delve deeply into this area, I still don't know what the word "astral" means. Thus I prefer to stick to the terms "Second Body" and "Second State.""
