I wanted to find out more about ‘religions’ that accept astral projection and this is one I found. Is this accurate according to what you believe?
An unexplained phenomenon may make a good story, but does not give us truth.
I didn’t refer to Wiki and why would I? These sources are merely subjective human accounts or interpretations based on what we can discover with our finite minds. I initially referred to the Scriptures where it warns explicitly against occult practice, or sorcery, in Galatians 5:19-20.
In the King James Version 1 Corinthians Chapter 15, if you read the verses before and after verse 44, (the reference you gave) you will understand that 1 Corinthians Chapter 15 verses 42 to 47 is speaking essentially about the resurrection of the body.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
[i]It is sown a natural body; such a body as all living creatures have by nature. Our carnal nature.
Raised a spiritual body; spiritual, not as to the substance of it, but in respect of the qualities and conditions of it. see Matthew 22:30 which is a cross reference.

45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.

If you read all of Ezekiel 8 v 1-4, in all of the visions or prophecies, for example, The book of Revelation, or John’s vision and the prophecies or visions of the Old Testament prophets, including the prophet Ezekiel’s vision all were told that this was a revelation from the Lord, and was directly from the mouth of God.
Ezekiel 8 v 1-4 KJV
1And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I sat in mine house, and the elders of Judah sat before me, that the hand of the Lord GOD fell there upon me. 2Then I beheld, and lo a likeness as the appearance of fire: from the appearance of his loins even downward, fire; and from his loins even upward, as the appearance of brightness, as the colour of amber. 3And he put forth the form of an hand, and took me by a lock of mine head; and the spirit lifted me up between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the inner gate that looketh toward the north; where was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provoketh to jealousy. 4And, behold, the glory of the God of Israel was there, according to the vision that I saw in the plain.
