Monday, June 10, 1974, I lay down to take a nap. It was very noisy; a neighbor clipping a hedge and machinery of some kind grinding away at the new bridge site. Suddenly I became aware of a mental image, with sound that I couldn’t hear; like a silent movie. I was getting out of a car, with a man, and we were on our way toward a house in which a healer or physician lived. As that me, I had this emotional gratitude: thank God; at last, someone who can really help—or something like that; I think though I’m not sure that I also meant... someone who knew our way of thinking and what I was up to. This vanished almost at once when I snapped to, feeling that a bug or something was crawling up my leg. It was; an ant. A few minutes later, another ant, plus the noises.
A few minutes or so later though something happened most difficult to explain. I was suddenly aware of a crazy feeling in .... my knees; as if they were being manipulated some way, only they were like putty... but at the same time while I felt this physically I didn’t feel it in my physical knees, but definitely in what I suppose you’d call my astral ones. Then I thought—or another part of me thought: at last, the inner evidence I’ve wanted so badly, the definite sensations . . . (don’t know how to explain this either but my ‘astral self’ was thinking this. The thoughts were mine, yet mine at a completely different level of thought that I don’t think I’ve ever identified (or identified with) before. Then instantly I forgot the entire thing, both incidents, until dinner. On Wednesday night there was definite improvement in my right knee and leg particularly; and left one too.
