#1 We are constantly being fed a virtual reality, and it is up to us to decide whether we want to get lost in it or not. The world out there is real, but the physical world feels real and substantial more than 99 percent of the time.

#2 The ground rules of everyday life are much looser than we imagine. We can escape the simulation by going to the source and being part of the creative process. Getting untangled from the virtual reality simulation isn’t easy, but the beauty of it is that we have the potential for change.

#3 The most widely publicized out-of-body experience is going into the light, which is misleading. In reality, what happens in near-death experiences is a process that takes several hours to complete.

#4 The experience of death is open to interpretation. The only thing that can be confirmed is that death is a comfortable process, not to be feared. Many who came back from death said that they should lead more selfless lives in service to others.

The idea that we live inside a model of the external world isn’t just true for OBEs, but for our entire reality. We live inside models of our own bodies, minds, and selves, which can be adjusted in illogical ways.
