Forgive me for probably asking a dumb questions , but what exactly is Astral Projection. I have heard bits and pieces but not really too much to put it all together . 

an astral is a reflection of the soul it comes from. but people who astral are not necessarily aware that they are doing it. they may have no awareness at all, or the experiences may be 'filtered' through a dream. however dreams are interpreted by the sleeping mind, and any concepts or circumstances that the person has no reference to will be misinterpreted in the dream when they try to recall it.

some people deliberately try to astral but again this doesn't mean that they are in control or have clear and accurate recall of what was experienced once their astral form as left their body.

basically there is a difference between having an astral and astral travelling. that difference being control and conscious awareness. without that you are having an "out of body experience" rather than astral travelling.

that's how i define things anyway. others may have their own terms and definitons.

the astral is not a "separate entity". it is a division in your own spirit, but should never be viewed as "separate". a soul, however divided, is still a soul.

I agree with Michael Dans.  Never apologize for asking a question concerning something of which you are ignorant.  I also had no knowledge of this topic until reading the the information here.  I want to learn more about astral projection.  I'll do the research.  Has anyone had this experience?  Please share.   

i wonder why some people are trying to practice astral projection, when we all do it anyway when we're asleep  as what rahman_abrar says.  some people dies in their sleep, does that mean when their spirits separate they were unable to come in time to save the physical body? i really am confused. i forgot the term for the illness or disorder that kills people in their sleep, i hope it's not related to being in an astral state.
