What are the internal states of the mind?

The state of the spirit body when the person dies intoxicated is more or less in a state of coma, and this condition induces a species of delirium, which lasts for some time and causes the spirit to imagine himself in a strange country though really not in any other place than that where he died. Thus, we have read of spirits fancying themselves on the borders of swampy lakes, in gloom and darkness, when all the while the spirit body may be really only in its own room where the death took place. These unfortunate creatures picture to themselves scenes that have no objective reality but are merely the working of a diseased imagination. There are, of course, swamps and morasses in the spirit world and caverns and gloomy places of all kinds, but they are not necessarily the physical surroundings of those who seem to dwell in them and describe their supposed condition through clairvoyants and others. These are merely the inner states of the minds of these unfortunate beings.
