love is the soul, the body is only temporary :-)
we can leave the body at any time we wish, if training lucid dreaming enough
lucid dreams always feel real to me, as real as this reality, often more real
but I can't quite put words on why it feels more real...
maybe because you see that it is an illusion that you are not your body that the physics of ordinary reality is not as real as it seems to be that you fly out of your body and can see it from above that you meet intelligent entities/beings , and sometimes even dead people
what is more real and why?:-)
you can return to this body after the dream is over, but you might be in a lucid dream all your life without knowing it
the only difference between this world and lucid dream worlds seem to be that you cannot die in lucid dreams but you rarely seek death in ordinary life either... so you won't know if it is an illusion either till you die

You always come back to the vessel man. Everytime. It may seem like a while but you always come back.
Death and DMT i believe are the same experience.

In your experience, in this reality 
Death and DMT are the same experience? Not in my experience

If you venture out of the 3rd Dimension you might not want to come back to this vessel because of how amazing the higher frequencies can be. Also I imagine an entity could take over your vessel under the right circumstances.
What do you mean by death and dmt are the same experience? I'll elaborate what I meant after you

it's bliss once you leave your body each time
time leaves, only bliss and when you return it is sometimes like you have slept 10 years in 2-3 hours, renewed energy
all fear/worries/thoughts vanish when you leave your body , but fear can sometimes/often follow you in the air too (various creatures you try to get away from)
start to feel light, float, then pure bliss for hours maybe thats why I like it better than this reality often / they feel more real
can do everything I can in this reality+more
better than the best trip, better visuals too, all senses work and also extra senses like feeling the energy of certain creatures even when they're in different rooms
there seems to be a difference between normal dreams (unconscious) and lucid dreams(conscious) normal dreams often seems to reflect our subconscious... life events,thoughts,secret desires,emotions etc.. and often are very "random", almost chaotic scenes.. (freud liked to analyze dreams .. I don't think they're random personally, I think they say something to you) but lucid dreams are completely different... they often have a meaningful scene you are still at home where you went to bed... you start to float, feel light, levitate, fly out into the garden above the high trees/grass fields , then over the whole city :-) and intelligent beings that seems to be not from this dimensions, usually not pleasant ones
pretty good simulation 
real is just a switch in the brain, I don't consider dreams,lucid dreams less real than this reality there is something to be learned from each, I believe what fits my experience
the best way I've found to protect myself against these beings is by not fearing them, they feed of my fear... instead face them directly.. even when unpleasant and of course the general rules about living a healthy lifestyle that helps pure thoughts

A very weird thing happened last time I tried to face these beings/shadows in my own house (lucid dream) powerloss in the whole city+house , so kinda dark inside (but still good sight)
they were in the entrance, could feel it, felt very evil
so went out there but my vision went completely white, felt like fainting/going unconscious and like it attacked me, very unpleasant
so had to go back into my living room, then my vision came back
then I went out there again same thing happened, couldn't see anything
felt very evil etc :-)
there was a portal in the top of the ceiling and insects flying down, attacking me and could feel some being out there
when I went back into the living room again my vision came back again like prior
usually see shadows in those lucid dreams, and they often come down on me/retreat into other rooms of my house/the kitchen , but can usually still feel their presence there from other rooms (always feels very evil, sense a presence, know it is out there and it wants to harm me it feels like)
could fly around in the whole city in that dream.. but everything was dark this time... power loss everywhere
weird lucid dream ;-) they're pretty hard to interpret when they're not about persons I know or about stuff that I can related to in everyday life
it feels like the same beings that try to chase me in the air for hours sometimes... they feel evil too :-)
haven't had any LDs recently, but got a lot less fear than before, so wonder how they will turn out

dream: something you can wake up from, and you cannot die reality: what you accept blindly/from logic (thoughts) real: same as reality , different for everybody
but maybe reality=dream so:
you accept blindly/from thoughts something you can wake up from and where you cant die
something which you can never verify/check, before you die or before you have a 'wake up' experience :-)
take the red pill , dive deep the rabbit hole, but this time let go of all thoughts, see where it takes you did it take you back to how you were before? or did something change?
feels pretty much like a wake up experience, and like you've been sleeping all your life in a body
experiencing is believing, it's not pleasant at first 
know thyself, that's a good phrase/truth
psytrance is essential to letting go, without it it is very hard to get rid of all thoughts imo

What you have experienced and just explained seems to be an transition into Astral realms, not merely a Lucid Dream. This is commonly known as Astral Projection, please do Google it and learn about it as it is very real. Please note that I could be wrong though. Your experience could be a Lucid Dream, i.e. only a projection of your thoughts. Astral Travel/Projection is when your physical Astral body leaves our worldly body. In the Astral plane you will most likely encounter entities. This experience is also much more intense than a normal dream, be it a conscious one or not. Who knows if the answer to this phenomenon lies in the chemical nature of our brain. Though, this explanation cannot explain encounters with seemingly intelligent entities, dead people and simultaneously Travelling astral bodies.
For someone reading this the first time, thinking it's new-age BS, please put your ignorance aside and do some research. When so many people have experienced the same, is it really BS then?

It's pretty obvious dreams aren't real, you seem to be struggling to distinguish reality from fantasy, you should start laying off the drugs.

I don't think anyone is having troubles distinguishing which realities they are experiencing.
I'm not 'talking crap' I just thought you were either trolling or being douchey with your "laying off the drugs" comment.
Dreams aren't real? Why is this reality RIGHT NOW anymore real than other places we can go with our consciousness? Are you just a body? Is what you see on psychs just hallucinations?

Dreams aren't real for obvious reasons... I can dream there is a pile of doughnuts or a million dollars sitting in the kitchen, when I wake up neither of them will be there. That is reality. All the rest is just philosophical talk from surrealist perspectives.

"Have you ever had a dream, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?" (lucid dreaming)
-The matrix quote
you seem to be claiming that 'objective reality' is real.. if there even is an objective reality..
you could be living your whole life in a dream... you would never know that is how real lucid dreams feel...
of course you would have to experience one to know....... not just a regular dream... lucid dreams are... different

Abstain from eating and drinking water for 3 weeks, in your dreams you may eat and drink, in reality you'll be dead from dehydration and malnourishment. Dreams are just that... A dream..
