Ruburt’s experience with your Miss Callahan recently was quite legitimate. He used a most advantageous method of projection without knowing that he did so, and I highly recommend this method to you both. When you awaken, or seem to in the middle of the night, try simply to get out of the physical body. Simply try to get out of bed, you see, and to walk into another room while the physical body stays where it is.

There is little strain with this method, and it has benefits from several viewpoints. Simply keep the method in mind so that you are alert to the initial favorable circumstances. You may be half awake. You may be in a false awakening. The method will work in either case. It offers good possibilities in another direction: you can, if you want to do so, look back at your own body.

You must want to do this however. Often you do not want to see the body by itself, so to speak, and so you choose methods that make this more difficult. Just this one exercise will sharpen your control greatly. It is an ABC you see.

The experience will be must less startling to the ego than an abrupt projection, and the ordinary nature of the activities, walking into the next room for example, will be reassuring. You are more calm, and in your own surroundings. Of course Ruburt was out of his body when he saw Miss Callahan, who was in the same condition.

Now it is possible for someone within the physical body to perceive someone who is not, but it is not usual. And the perceiver must then be a person of strong psychic abilities, whether or not he realizes this. Or the projecting personality must be either driven by high emotional intensity to make himself known, or be of exceptional ability.
