An out-of-body experience (OBE or sometimes OOBE), is an experience that typically involves a sensation of floating outside of one's body and, in some cases, perceiving one's physical body from a place outside one's body
Albert Einstein (1870-1955) in his watershed publication, Relativity: the Special and General Theory (1918), described all existance as energy, although it takes many forms. According to the theory of relatvity all matter, from people and plants to tables and chairs, is comprised of energy structures- atoms, molecules, and electrons- that vibrate at different frequencies. The energy of matter that forms an object we consider solid, such as this book, vibrates so slowly that we are able to physically percieve its matter. The energy of matter we cannot see such as the air we breathe, vibrates very fast .

is the experience of feeling sure that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously (an individual feels as though an event has already happened or has happened in the near past), although the exact circumstances of the previous encounter are uncertain
Whenever a particle A exerts a force on another particle B, B simultaneously exerts a force on A with the same magnitude in the opposite direction. The strong form of the law further postulates that these two forces act along the same line. This law is often simplified into the sentence, "To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction."
"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a persistent one," according to the late Albert Einstein. But, "if everything is an illusion and nothing exists," humorist Woody Allen has observed, "I definitely overpaid for my carpet."
Physicists who work with a concept called string theory envision our universe as an eerie place with at least nine spatial dimensions, six of them hidden from us, perhaps curled up in some way so they are undetectable. The big question is why we experience the universe in only three spatial dimensions instead of four, or six, or nine.
Alternate realities or parallel universes for anyone who has never heard of these concepts before are another reality that seems to run parallel to the reality you currently live in. The idea of an alternative reality to the reality you are currently living in would exist if you made a different choice somewhere during the course of your life. Of course we are making choices constantly, all day and every day of our lives so the idea of alternate realities would seem to suggest there could be literally billions or an almost infinite number of possible alternate realities or parallel universes. A parallel universe is basically just another name for an alternate reality.
Parallel universes aren’t just the stuff of sci-fi, according to a mathematical discovery by Oxford scientists. The breakthrough is being described as "one of the most important developments in the history of science".
The multiverse (or meta-universe (metaverse)) is the hypothetical set of multiple possible universes (including our universe) that together comprise all of reality. The different universes within the multiverse are sometimes called parallel universes. The structure of the multiverse, the nature of each universe within it and the relationship between the various constituent universes, depend on the specific multiverse hypothesis considered.
String theory is of interest to many physicists because it requires new mathematical and physical ideas to mesh together its very different mathematical formulations. One of the most inclusive of these is the 11-dimensional M-theory, and in the M-theory way of thinking, string theory requires spacetime to have eleven dimensions,[1] as opposed to the usual three space and one time. The original string theories from the 1980s describe special cases of M-theory where the eleventh dimension is a very small circle or a line, and if these formulations are considered as fundamental, then string theory requires ten dimensions. But the theory also describes universes like ours, with four observable spacetime dimensions, as well as universes with up to 10 flat space dimensions, and also cases where the position in some of the dimensions is not described by a real number, but by completely different type of mathematical quantity. So the notion of space-time dimension is not a fixed thing in string theory: it is best thought of as different in different circumstances
It makes the explanation of a Creator or God (Gods) much easier. If there are about 13 universes would not the Gods reside in one of them? It would be impossible for science to find the evidence.
There is much evidence from both the Bible and from science that demonstrates God must exist and operate in dimensions of space and time other than those to which we are confined. God could not have created the universe if He were only a part of it. The Bible says the universe cannot contain Him
According to particle physics and relativity, at least ten dimensions of space existed at the creation of the universe
The God of the Bible is invisible and cannot be seen except if He reveals Himself to us in a three-dimensional form that we can see. A being which exists in dimensions beyond our three spatial dimensions would be invisible to creatures (us) that can only exist in the confines of our universe
Not sure how much of this info goes with the thread, but I figured some of it does
Dimensions just add more proof that God exists.
Yes, and then we do not know what happens to us when we die. When we die do you continue in another in another dimension or go straight to heaven or hell. Its unlimtated possibilities.
I believe in recycling because the template that is indestructible, that has been with us and even before us, physically, the nature of all that contains life, shows us recycling of how it returns. The life of the Earth return to the Earth in some way...seed return to earth and grow, food returns to our flesh bodies (which is made of this mother earth as well), ect....
Plus when I saw my mother tell me while she is standing in a vision of her NDE...'we relearn everything' 'not all can enter their gate' we get reborn' plus she saw herself in a past life. I know that is not proof but there are just those feeling and intuition that I am at peace with.
Now I do not believe that aliens are from our universe as the man in the final seconds states. I believe that they come either from the future or from a different reality.

I love this topic
So reincarnation and other dimensions, lets say
I believe in both. I also have been thinking somewhere someway, there has always been space, spheres, the Universe. Does there have to be a beginning I have been asking myself. Wouldn't all beginnings be a emanation of something that had a ending/or flowed into another self, existence, manifestation.
If there are other dimensions....I see them parallel to us. Which is hard for me to think that its possible, even though that is what I feel it is.

The Big Bounce is a theorized scientific model related to the formation of the known Universe. It derives from the cyclic model or oscillatory universe interpretation of the Big Bang where the first cosmological event was the result of the collapse of a previous universe
Expansion and Contraction According to some oscillatory universe theorists, the Big Bang was merely the beginning of a period of expansion that followed a period of contraction. In this view, one could talk of a Big Crunch followed by a Big Bang, or more simply, a Big Bounce. This suggests that we might be living in the first of all universes, but are equally likely to be living in the 2 billionth universe (or any of an infinite other sequential universes). The main idea behind the quantum theory of a Big Bounce is that, as density approaches infinity, the behavior of the quantum foam changes. All the so-called fundamental physical constants, including the speed of light in a vacuum, were not so constant during the Big Crunch, especially in the interval stretching 10−43 seconds before and after the point of inflection. (One unit of Planck time is about 10−43 seconds.) If the fundamental physical constants were determined in a quantum-mechanical manner during the Big Crunch, then their apparently inexplicable values in this universe would not be so surprising, it being understood here that a universe is that which exists between a Big Bang and its Big Crunch.
