I've had what was ostensibly a telepathic encounter with a higher intelligence. A year ago, a voice came to me suddenly, and said, "We will take him now." I have never heard voices otherwise.

Two days later, I found out that an elder relative passed, having had suffered from a heart attack. He died over a 24 hour period and was with his family. The thing is, I had no prior knowledge of his condition or even any contact with him at all in a long time.

I've speculated about the cause and implications. Perhaps I hallucinated. Maybe aliens took my relative. Or was it "God"? Is there even a distinction?
