Dear David,
>> I would appreciate hearing peoples' views on whether mental (and/or astral) travelling, as described by Bardon and other authors, and lucid dreaming are one and the same, or at least, variations on a single basic mechanism - this is a question which never seems (at least to me) to get answered satisfactorily; rather, it seems either to get misinterpreted, or (deliberately or otherwise) glossed over, at least, publicly. <<

Thank you, Rawn, I will review those pages.
David
