kind regards michael.
Michael I have not heard of Descartes. But I do think about this stuff. Our concious can think of the material world because we live in the material world. If we could transcend this body and mind then it will be only the concious that remains which gives us the reality of our existence. And take higher up than the illusions [sound colour texture etc.] that we have converted into realities for our own convinience. As you say you have travelled far and wide and experienced astral travelling. It will not be difficult for you to understand this.
I would like to know how you felt in your experiences of meditation and astral travellings.
