…concerning visions; it is very difficult to distinguish
between true visions which are true spiritual experiences of the soul and
imaginations which have no reality in spiritual truths. True visions, however,
can be granted to those who are spiritually pure and receptive, and are not
therefore confined to the Prophets alone.
