Re: astral projection can a blind person do it?
@54-55, first, please stop double-posting. Edit your post if you'd like to add content to it. Second, no, I have not heard of him. Do remember, however, that just because someones ideas seem "rational" does not mean they are correct. In particular, according to various sources, Shelldrake's ideas have never been subjected to the peer-review process (and the ideals he proposed in the book "A New Science of Life" (1981) fail the scientific method test). Most of his well-known books contain results that he contributes to 'morphic resonance'. Only Sheldrake truly knows what 'Morphic resonance' is. It is no more empirical than L. Ron Hubbard's 'engram', the alleged source of all mental and physical illness. According to other sources, he appears to favor metaphysics over science, though he thinks he can do the former but call it the latter. Every well-known book contains descriptions of things like telepathy and other fictional content; scientists who attempt to apply the scientific method to his results thus far have not been able to replicate them. They -- his books -- may be interesting to read, but they are no more scientific than Harry Potter is, even if he claims they are. What's ironic is that he did get a P.H.D. in biochemistry, yet he abuses that P.H.D. to attempt to erode the public's understanding of science.
