Explorer dialogue contrasts passing a ROTE with the limits of speech. A journal contributor uses the term for a message accompanied by childhood memories. These examples document usage; they do not establish a transmission mechanism. Usage: Explorer dialogue and a journal participant account Editorial definition: /terminology#rote References: Explorer JPMcG Audio Files & Transcripts https://archive.org/details/jpmcg-explorer--files; Hemi-Sync® Journal 2001-1 (Winter) https://archive.org/details/hemi-sync-journal-2001-1-winter Second body (nonphysical body) · Accounts & ideas The experienced body or vehicle that Monroe used to describe some out-of-body experiences. The archived overview contrasts this earlier travel-like model with later phasing accounts. The term does not require treating every experience as literal separation of a second physical object.
