*That's an interesting mystical concept, "bilocation."
Several Christian saints, monks and Muslim sufis are said to have exhibited bilocation. Among the earliest is the apparition of Our Lady of the Pillar in the year 40. St Isidore the Farmer claimed to be praying or attending Mass in Church while at the same time plowing in the fields.[citation needed]
Other Christian figures said to have experienced bilocation include St. Alphonsus Marie De'Liguori (Founder of Redemptorist Congregation), St. Anthony of Padua, Ursula Micaela Morata, St. Gerard Majella, Charles of Mount Argus, Padre Pio,[13] St. Severus of Ravenna, St. Ambrose of Milan, María de Ágreda,[14], St. Martin de Porres, María de León Bello y Delgado.
In the Coptic Church, Saints Yostos El Antony and Pope Cyril VI of Alexandria were claimed to bilocate in the 20th century.[citation needed]
Witchcraft[edit]
In the 17th century, persons accused of witchcraft were reported to appear in dreams and visions of witnesses. The trials at Bury St. Edmunds and Salem included this "spectral evidence" against defendants. Matthew Hopkins described the phenomenon in his book The Discovery of Witches.
Modern[edit]
Neem Karoli Baba[15], Sri Yukteswar[16], Lahiri Mahasaya[17], and many other prominent hindu gurus were reported to have this ability.
The English occultist Aleister Crowley was reported by acquaintances to have the ability, even though he said he was not conscious of its happening at the time.[18]
Bilocation figures heavily in David Lynch's film Lost Highway (1997) and Thomas Pynchon's novel Against the Day (2006). Bilocation also plays a part in the Christopher Priest novel The Prestige.
