1985. The place or location where spirits appear to be is only an illusion

I have observed that spirits, according to their genius and character, as well as their attitude or state of mind, are allotted a place relative to the human body-thus to the right, the left, the sides, above, below, far off, nearby. These are all appearances, as I have been shown quite plainly many times, and also today when I was speaking with spirits about this matter. When I wheeled around, they still appeared to be at the same side relative to me. So they were everywhere, while actually they were only in one place. I was also told that tens of thousands could even appear at the same place, when yet not one of them was there. Moreover, some who were either below or rather high above me sometimes in an instant seemed to themselves to be near, even next to me, much to their surprise. And those below were suddenly above, and so on. 1748, 17 May.
