Experience description:

This experience happened to my dad when he was young, at the age of 20. He is now 52.

He was coming back from work, arrived at his house and that specific day, he was feeling very tired, and besides that he was not feeling very well.

He remembers that his mother and his father (my grandparents) were sleeping in the next room.

He went to his room, and laid down on his bed, closing his eyes.

Suddenly, he felt that he had left his body, he began to see himself from above, he saw his body lying on the bed with his eyes closed. He felt that he was beginning to very slowly rise towards the roof, as he continued to see his body lying on the bed. The feeling was incredibly pleasant, difficult to compare with anything in this world. A feeling of infinite love and peace. He was aware at all times. He tried to see if he had any limbs from his body with him, but no. He described himself as "eyes with a pair of wings", with a
360 ø view. He could see his mother and father sleeping in the other room, he could go through the walls using his sight. Suddenly, he reached the ceiling, his "eyes with wings" stopped when they were about to go through the
ceiling to go higher, then he thought about his family, his parents, how they would suffer if he left. He began to force himself to go down towards his body, using a lot, a lot of force, he felt that little by little he began to go down to his body, very slowly, until he got closer and closer, and entered his body again. When he got in, he felt a 'blow' and opened his physical eyes.

To this day he tells us about his experience, he has the strong conviction that there is life after death, that the soul lives on. And he knows that his experience was not a dream, it was even more real than the very reality that we perceive with our senses.

I have heard some people describe seeing a silver cord attached to both spirit body and physical body.

I have seen that mentioned on a few TV shows that people can see a silver thread like thing connecting their spirit to their bodies.
