While some claim to see shadow people out of the corner of their eye and others in dreams, I am curious if anyone adept at OBE ever sees them (especially the hat men). Wouldn't they more be able to communicate with and even chase them?

I've seen eye floaters. I've never seen eye floaters look like shadow people. Nice try though. At least it wasn't a link to schizophrenia symptoms.edit on 21-4-2011 by coyotepoet because: (no reason given)

Is there even any scientific proof that "shadow people" exist? How do you know they're even people? And how do you know it's not your mind just playing tricks on you?

What is with this Mentality of if you see something non-physical you must be Schizophrenic?
That would have to be one of the great small-minded thinking illustrations.
Why we see things out of the corner of our eyes....
It's got to do with the structure within the eye. Rods point straight ahead in order to gather light from directly in front of you.. while the side vision is from cones that funnel larger amounts of Light into smaller receptors.. not the official words for all this oklay.
It is the cones that helps us to see peripherally... and we do see things that are non-physical, so when we see them we turn to look straight on.. using the rods of the eyes.. and are not able to see because the rods take in less light than the cones.
This is all natural.. and not at all anything to do with Schizophrenia.
The world we live in is filled with non-physical things that we mostly do not see unless you are trained to or have a natural ability to. These things are all around us all the time.
I also think many "symptoms of schizophrenia" are really what is normal for most people.. hearing voices and seeing things that aren't there in the physical world, etc. And how you deal with it depends on whether you can be trained to maintain balance between the worlds of Force and Form, or whether you will remain in the limitations of culture and are thus perceived as having some mental health issues.
I'm not saying mental illness does not exist.. it obviously does.. but the very natural things we humans have had as abilities since man first walked this planet, and that we have been indoctrinating out of everyone who is born here for hundreds of years, are not a part of mental illness.. they are our birthright for a race of Spiritual Beings living a Human Eperience.

We are not ruling out mental problims, jest like we are not rulling out that the shaddow people might exist. Althought I think a psychology docter might know the differance in the two. Several intelligent people have posted disscussing this allready. It is possible that some of us are mentaly ill but very highly unlikely that we are all mentaly ill.edit on 22-4-2011 by awakeningsandman because: left a bit out

On your idia that a science fiction writer could glean a lot of ideas from the fertile imaginations of some of the members. several allready do ATS gets ripped of in movies all the time. It's to the point that i think they should be paying us for righting there storys for them. Watch for a shaddow people movie in the next 2 years.edit on 22-4-2011 by awakeningsandman because: left a bit out
