LOST Theories - DarkUFO

After simply reading about astral projection and the “silver cord” mythology, I believe astral projection imagined by the Egyptians will turn out to be the primary reason for the whispers, the role of doppelgangers, the space-time travel, the idea of a magical cistern with healing water, and the very definition of “LOST” demonstrated in the show. Simply pulling definitions from Wikipedia, here is the information on “Astral Projection” and “Silver Cord.” Everything from here down is from Wikipedia, but a lot of the secrets from the show seem to be clearly referenced in this definition:

"Astral projection (or astral travel) is an esoteric interpretation of any form of out-of-body experience (OOBE) that assumes the existence of an "astral body" separate from thephysical body and capable of travelling outside it.[1] Astral projection or travel denotes the astral body leaving the physical body to travel in the astral plane.
The idea of astral travel is rooted in common worldwide religious accounts of the afterlife [2] in which the consciousness' or soul's journey or "ascent" is described in such terms as "an...out-of body experience, wherein the spiritual traveller leaves the physical body and travels in his/her subtle body (or dreambody or astral body) into ‘higher’ realms."[3] It is therefore associated with near death experiences and is also frequently reported as spontaneously experienced in association with sleep and dreams, illness[4], surgical operations, drug experiences, sleep paralysis and forms of meditation.[5]
It is also sometimes cultivated for its own sake[6] or may be believed to be a faculty derived from or necessary to some forms of spiritual practice.[7] It may involve "travel to higher realms" called astral planes but is commonly used of any sensation of being "out of the body"[8] in the everyday world, even seeing ones body from outside or above. It may be reported in the form of an apparitional experience, a supposed encounter with a doppelganger, some living person also seen somewhere else at the same time.[9] (See Bilocation)”………………..
“Ancient Egypt
Similar concepts of "soul" travel appear in various other religious traditions, for example ancient Egyptian teachings present the soul as having the ability to hover outside the physical body in the ka, or subtle body.[16] A common belief is that the subtle body is attached to the physical body by means of a psychic silver cord.[17][18]”……………..
“Silver cord is in metaphysical literature a term referring to the connection between the physical body, astral body, and Higher Self.

Compare to: Ecclesiastes 12:6-7 Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. (Quote taken from the KJV).
During astral projection, some but not all projectors claim they can (at will or otherwise) see a silver cord linking their astral form to their physical body. This cord mainly appears to a beginning projector as an assurance they will not become lost. However, even experienced projectors find it useful, claiming it is a fast way to return to the body. The term is derived from Ecclesiastes 12:6-12:7 in the Old Testament, from the KJV:
"Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it."
Or from the NIV:
"Remember him—before the silver cord is severed, or the golden bowl is broken; before the pitcher is shattered at the spring, or the wheel broken at the well, and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it."
This verse (Ecclesiastes 12:6) is variously translated.
The silver cord is mentioned by occultists and mystics, especially in contexts of dying and of near-death experiences.
The attachment point of the cord to the astral body differs, not only between projectors but also from projection to projection. These points correspond major chakra positions. According to the observations of Robert Bruce (author), there is not a single point of connection to the denser body, but rather a locally converging collection of strands leading out of all of the major chakras, and some of the minor ones (Astral Dynamics, p398).
