   No.  I've done shamanic journeying (aka astral travel), but that's not the   
   same as an OBE, since I don't perceive the physical world when I wander off,   
   but a dreamscape.  OBEs scare me, I don't plan to do them ever.

   The FAQ for alt.religion.shamanism has some information about this kind of   
   stuff.
