A dreamer can become aware that he/she is dreaming and control that dream. A lot of people mistake this for astral projection or OBE, however, what they are actually experiencing is a very lucid dream which is so real to them that they think it is in fact real, when it isn't. Reading this actually made me think. If the mind without external stimuli has to take it's stimuli from the imagination, wouldn't someone get a better effect on LSD if all he had was his own imagination and nothing external to blur his mind. Try wearing a blindfold next time you take LSD, you may be surprised by the effect it has. hmm A lot of what you are referring to here is based on lucid dreaming.
