There was a bit more to the experience, but that was the core.
Amazingly like your brain was subjected to a drug. Funny that coincidence.
Amazing that a drug would recreate the experience of being out of my body, physically looking down on it with sharper visual acuity than while in body, with greater depth, stillness and space of internal thought.
No hallucinations, no crazy visuals, no profound trips, no emotional roller coaster, just clarity of self, like I was transparent. Like the normal membranes in place between conscious/subconscious and super-conscious were no longer there and the information came together as a whole.
Like I was no longer filtered by the neural pathways I had been firing and wiring since birth. No longer in the brain/body.
