when body sleeps soul/consciousness will many times leave body....
not all dreams...but many of them are actually soul travels.
the images we see during dreams. the physical mind...may not realize that it is soul...it identifies itself as a physical body...therefore it uses images it understands or is familiar with.
if one realizes that he/she is soul....then he/she will view the leaving of body as it actually is.
example:
a dream that i have had all of my life...i am running thru a field towards a cliff...when i get to the edge of the cliff i leap and then fly.
what is actually happening:
my consciousness is traveling up thru the spine...leaving the chakras one by one ( this is the running thru the field )....the leaping from cliff is the exiting of the body. souls fly...so the flying in the 'dream' is soul/consiousness traveling.

When i was young i ran across the fields. i used to dream and think my thoughts were real. i wasn't so far from the truth. i turned around and see i ran for u.... this is from a song i channeled. i look at your re-ocurring dream differently Yoshi and have another interpretation..
