Responsive vibrations of the body

Q: X told me once how she used to have a headache which remained just above the head and it was very severe. We used to laugh at her because we couldn’t believe in a headache of that nature.

How do you know there can’t be such a headache? If the consciousness can be lifted above the head and remain there, why not a headache? The body is a mere means of responsive vibrations. Everything coming from outside finds a response in it and we get all these things.
