And you don't consider complete muscle paralysis as anything akin to
muscle relaxation?
AFAIK entering a zen state is pretty much body independant (other wise
why the hell would people practice yogi or the like?).... isn't the point
of it to transcend/escape the body's influence?

Personally (in case you hadn't guessed that already) I'd say that astral
projection is completely fair game.
