Sometimes you have to hear from other people's lips: "I had a vision." This expression is perceived by people so individually that finding out points of view can easily lead to a scandal. Some consider the vision to be a fiction, others insist on the reality of the images, and others indulge in lengthy explanations of the principles of the brain. There are other positions as well. What is a vision? How can it be properly described and understood? Let's find out.
The position of a strict realist
Vision is a figment of the imagination, a mirage. It appears when a person thinks hard about something. A certain problem, fact or event interests him so deeply that he cannot be distracted from it. Does not work. Even when he tries to switch to another topic, this problem is still spinning in his head. Therefore, his thoughts give rise to images related to the theme of constant reflection. Like, for example, the insight of a brilliant scientist. All learned information is structured, andthe brain spontaneously produces the result. And night visions are a reflection of the events and impressions of the day. What a person paid attention to pops up in the brain, intertwines and forms bizarre dream pictures. There is nothing supernatural in this. Brain cells are constantly working. In the deep phase of sleep, they give rise to images that a person perceives. Another thing is the vision of the world! It's worth talking about. It's a way of perceiving reality.
Scientific approach
Vision is a reflection of the inner workings of brain cells. Neural connections are formed according to a rather complex pattern. They are intertwined in bizarre knots. Mental activity is reflected in this incredibly intricate system, changing it. There are situations when, due to stress or trauma, stable connections change their configuration. Then the images recorded in the neural connections are superimposed on each other, giving rise to something completely different. Human consciousness perceives new chains as visions. They exist only in his imagination. It is impossible to say that the images have a connection with reality. The cases described in the literature are considered coincidences, which are fully justified by the theory of probability. If it seems to someone that he sees future events, then this is his personal opinion. In fact, this can happen by accident. Look at our planet. She is alone in the entire universe. Also a coincidence of many factors that allowed life to develop. So it is with brain cells. Their number allows you to create such a huge number of configurations that some may beprophetic. A vision is an image created by the nervous system that is perceived only by a given person. It is not available to others. Therefore, it has nothing to do with the physical world.
What does religion think?
Priests also talk about what vision means. They believe that this is a message from the Lord or the forces of the devil. It all depends on the personality of the one who has it. Hieromonks or holy fathers receive information from above. It comes in the form of a vision. This is a message that the recipient is obliged to convey to the world. Remember at least the legend of the Star of Bethlehem. Joseph had a vision of the appearance of a divine baby. Today, the visions of the elders about the future are widely known. They talk a lot about them, some people perceive them as revelations. On the other hand, a sinful person, that is, an ordinary person, receives images from an unclean person. The devil tries in this way to seduce a weak being. Priests recommend to strengthen the faith, not to succumb to these intrigues. That is why they have a bad attitude towards divination. For example, the seer Vanga was excommunicated from the church. Priests considered her work diabolical intrigues. Although not one of her visions is already a prediction that has come true. Proven by recent history.
Esoteric approach
Vision is a way of communicating with the subtle plane. Everyone has them. Every person is multidimensional. The body is in the physical world, and the field structures are in the energy space. The bond between them is inextricable and permanent. But not everyone perceives it. A developed personalitycommunicate with the subtle worlds. This happens in various ways. Some visions come spontaneously. Others receive answers in the form of images to the questions asked. Various techniques are used for this. There are people who find it easier to perceive night visions. They know how to create controlled dreams. That is, their consciousness does not turn off when the brain is in a deep phase. In this state, one can travel on the astral plane, gain knowledge, fly to other planets, and so on. For an ordinary person, spontaneous visions that appear out of connection with real events are important. They are also called intuition.
Who's right?
If you look deeper, it turns out that the differences between these approaches are superficial. The work of the brain does not deny the presence of the soul, and faith is the ability to look beyond the veil of the future. Limits the perception of our concept of worldview. People build their perception of events on some convenient or generally accepted dogmas. They prevent you from looking at the world more broadly. Think for yourself, your attitude to visions is based on what. You just need to get to the bottom of the settings. For some, religious dogma will be an obstacle to accepting the reality of that phenomenon, for others, scientific arguments. But these are all limitations.
Can I induce visions?
In fact, there is nothing easier. You just have to believe that there are no barriers. And for this you need to remove restrictions from the subconscious (see the previous paragraph). Learning to communicate with the subtle worlds is even very important. For thousands of years, under the influence of religion, people deniedpart of yourself. They were told that there is an immortal soul. But no one told how to talk to her. It's like knowing about the presence of the liver, but not responding to its signals when you get sick, for example. The fact that the process of communication is quite normal is indicated by the visions of people before death. This phenomenon was studied by scientists and proved that it is not just a product of a sick imagination. A lot of repeated evidence of "light at the end of the tunnel" has been recorded. This is not a juggling, since people with different levels of education, religious views and life experience tell the same thing. To be honest, the well-known predictions of the seers are also a kind of proof of the existence of a connection with the subtle worlds. For many of them, the percentage of matches far exceeds the statistical error.
Conclusion
Visions are a very interesting and mysterious phenomenon. It is important that they are individual. Almost every person is faced with them in practice. Only not everyone analyzes, trying to understand what it was. Take dreams. How many try to solve them? And everyone sees. How to treat this phenomenon is a personal matter. However, it is recommended to speculate on why visions come to you? What do they mean? By refusing to think about this information, are you limiting your own personality? What do you think?
