The distinguished Swiss psychologists Carl Gustav Jung was well known for his interest in the after-life. Although he once stated that the immortality of the sound could never be proved, he believed that telepathy between this world and the next could take place. In his autobiography he writes of a very curious personal experience that seems to lend some support to his belief.

In bed one night Jung was thinking about the funeral he had attended the day before. Suddenly he had a vision: his dead friend was standing at the foot of his head, looking down at him.

The friend went to the door and beckoned Jung to follow. In his imagination Jung obeyed, trailing him out of the house, into the street, and finally into his friend’s house, where he was ushered into the library. His friend then climbed onto a stool and pointed out a specific book – the second of five volumes with a red leather binding – that sat on the second shelf from the top. At this point Jung’s vision ended.

Consumed wit great curiosity, Jung visited his friend‘s widow the next morning and asked to see the library, a room in which he had never been before. Once inside, everything was as he had “seen” it the previous night, including the stool by the book-case. Stepping onto the stool so that he could read the titles of the books, Jung found the one his friend had pointed out. It was a translation of a novel by Emile Zola, The Legacy of Death.

Although this was just one of many similar occurrences during Jung’s lifetime, he was reluctant to speak out about them publicly. As he once said: “I prefer not to communicate too many of my experiences. They would confront the scientific would with too many problems.”
