I was standing in front of the hospital ward, the body of my grandfather was still in the there and I was waiting for the personal to come. About an hour before I got a call from my uncle that my grandfather passed away, but it's only there at the hospital when I felt the grief. With emotions really high I started to cry and felt tears on my chicks. Than I heard my grandfathers voice in my head. He said to me : 

David, please don't worry, I feel good here. 

I was stunned for a minute and could not think about anything, I stopped crying, but then in a few min or seconds I started to cry again, because I simply could not hold tears. And then I heard his voice in my head again, he said: 

David, I told you I am fine here. 

And that's it. I never heard his voice again. 

Please note that the conversation was in Russian language, and I tried to translate it to English as close as possible.

            Did the voice or sound seem to originate externally or outside of you, inside you, or did you not hear a voice or sound, but had a sense of knowing what was communicated?  The voice of my grandfather originated inside my head.
