Steven King Posted April 27, 2013 I do not recall where I read this, any help or expansion on the topic would be appreciated. In Taoism the "Pearl" essentially is a focusing of one's own energy and consciousness. Where by the individual would have the ability to leave the physical body at will. At the time of physical, bodily death an individual would leave their body, thus gaining immortality. Steven King Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samurai Mountain man Posted April 27, 2013 At the time of physical, bodily death an individual would leave their body, thus gaining immortality. As a form of astral projection; yes? it's like immortality in the sense that the current self at the time of death will not dissolve into the greater form of conciousness lying beneath the world. Or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or something. Hrmmm. I am assuming more so as a full OBE. Where one physically leaves the body. What is strange about this state is that it is truly freeing and many abilities open up it seems. One can easily manifest their fears as well in this state, as well as their dreams/heaven. You also better be good at grounding if you do this before death, getting back into the body can be frightening if you dont know what your doing.
