His first experience of projection was while under chloroform in the dentist’s chair. He suddenly found himself out of the body, floating near the ceiling, whence he observed with a detached interest the entire proceedings, regaining his body without conscious effort, and with a clear recollection of his attitude when out of it.
On another occasion, when in a London hotel, he awoke feeling ill — he suffered from a weak heart — and, fainting, found himself once more floating in the air near the ceiling. As all his efforts to return to his body were of no avail, he concluded that he must be dead, though conscious of retaining all his faculties, but for some reason was unable to leave the room.
After an hour or two he heard knocking, but the door was locked, and the porter had to force an entry through the window. A doctor was summoned, and while under examination Hymans awoke. He had not noticed, nor been conscious of, the fluidic cord.
Ralph Shirley recalls a similar experience when he found himself, while under an anaesthetic at the dentist's, standing behind the chair in which his physical body lay. The experience, however, was all too brief, for, while endeavouring to get his bearings, the effect of the anaesthetic passed off, and he found himself back again in his normal body.
Mr. Arthur Wills, an architect and C.E. of Chicago, Illinois, in a letter to Sylvan Muldoon of August nth, 1929, writes: "All my experiences were involuntary, though I tried voluntary projection in ignorance of how to go about it.... On one occasion at a dentist's office, without anaesthetic, as he drilled into my tooth, the pain became so acute that I actually 'lost myself. Suddenly I found myself looking over the dentist's shoulder into my mouth."
