In both of these experiences that befall humanity, it is clearly evident that the vital essence (spirit, soul, core being that has existed forever) of the person easily exits the mortal body. In his fine book on this phenomenon entitled Life After Life: The Investigation of a Phenomenon--Survival of Bodily Death , Raymond A. Moody MD, PhD, analyzes first hand hundreds of persons who have gone through what is termed Clinical Death or Near Death Experience.

These persons return from these journeys out of their bodies with amazing stories to tell of what they have seen and done. In abduction stories,on the other hand, the person is returned by their captors. There is pain, fear, and bewilderment in the victim who returns from alien possession. For the most part there is joy, revelation, and profound change in a human after return from near death.

The big difference in the two experiences, that strikes us immediately,is that in abduction it is an external agency that is the cause of the spirits removal. In near death it is sometimes a traumatic event that causes the spirit to take flight. However OBEs (Out of Body Experiences) do occur to a percentage of the populace without any explanation. It is the loose attachment of our vital being within us that produces the wealth of such reports.

When the aliens come for a selected person, the acquisition process is done easily and quickly. Oh! I have seen foul-ups like not getting back through the roof in a Michigan case, or in one case in southern Indiana, the boy and his dogs paid dearly for the alien stupidity and cruelty. The boy ended up with Grand Mal Epilepsy and his dogs were sickened with red skin and death.

In my worse case scenario, the treachous aliens removed all of a Florida womans's inner female parts. This threw three physicians for a loss in attempting to understand how this could be true. There is not space here to discuss some of the things than an abductee suffers while captive.

In contrast an OBEers temporary visit to dimensional realms beyond our Earth plane often have vivid views of beautiful cities of light, restful, lovely fields of green foliage, etc. A brilliant white light will beacon them.

Deceased loved ones they cannot join will be seen. In near death phenomena, the participant will often return in a euphoric state. No such impressive joyful return awaits an abducted person unless on rare occasions the angel-like Nordic aliens are involved. It is interesting to note that these two phenomena are both sourced in parallel dimensions yet are clearly, totally, diverse areas of parallel realities in our universe. Not one of Moody's cases reported any UFOs or alien type figures.

In a near death induced OBE, one can look back and see his body laying there. The body has been left behind. This is not so in abduction. I've had some cases like the Nebraska man who in his altered state remembered the cobwebs inside the wall of his home as he passed through it.

Actually quite a bit of information bubbles up sooner of later from some abductees about their journey enroute to or inside their destination. So we see some similarity here; however, I have no data where an abductee looked back and saw his body. Apparently the omnipotent brilliant aliens are able to alter the molecular structure of flesh when encountering a barrier then again reconstitute it again as a body and move it on for their own purposes.

We have the positive proof of this because we often see the destructive effect on body health and the visible skin disruptions like scoop marks, straight line scars, and puncture marks to name a few of the undeniable signs. So it is certain that the physical body has been in alien clutches. And here is a most important fact that I want to point out to you. No OBEer ever returned from his journey with any kind of illness or visible physical marks like an abductee often does.
