The following story is from a woman who, while physically seated in San Francisco, imagined herself to be in her daughter’s living room in London, England:
“Seated in my living room in San Francisco, I imagined I was in my daughter’s living room in London, England. I surrounded myself so completely with that room which I knew intimately, that I suddenly found myself actually standing in it.
”My daughter was standing by her fireplace, her face turned away from me. A moment later she turned and our eyes met. I saw such a startled, frightened expression on her face that I, too, became emotionally upset and immediately found myself back in my own living room in San Francisco.
“Five days later I received an airmail letter from my daughter which had been written on the day of my experiment with imaginal travel. In her letter she told me she had “seen” me in her living room that day just as real as though I were actually standing there in the flesh. She confessed she had been very frightened and that before she could speak, I had vanished.
She explained that she told her husband of this amazing experience and he insisted that she write to me immediately as he stated, “Your mother must have died or is dying”. But I wasn’t “dead” or “dying”, but very much alive and very excited by this marvelous experience.”
