“The consciousness is released from both the physical body and the ecso- matic body, each of which is seen from a spatially separate vantage point. […]
This can be done by imagining this extra dimension randomly fluctuating throughout the convoluted three-dimensional field. This fluctuation shifts the three-dimensional areas touching through hyperspace at the four-dimensional level. As long as experients move into four-dimensional positions where local fold connections exist, multiple-body/location experiences arise. "Alternate shifting location" experiences may be explained as instances of five-dimensional fold movement, that is, as the result of the folding and unfolding of a set of three-dimensional locations. […]
John White developed a theme compatible with this alternate hypothesis when he noted:
Four-dimensional vision is only an intermediate stage in the process of "clearing the doors of perception" en route to the higher perceptions of mystical vision, in which everything is seen from an infinity of points simultaneously. Or to put it another way, the single-point observer seeing in three dimensions is multiplied infinitely to become an infinite observer seeing all points simultaneously, so that the seer and seen become one process of seeing, without subject/object division.
