The visions seen by mystics who have not made the return-to-earth journey and who have not understood God as the world movement, will always be unreliable--sometimes correct but often wrong--in the same way that dreams are often jumbled and irrational. The ultimate path gives knowledge, yields only correct, truthful vision, and alone completes realization of the All. Mystical experience is incomplete because it is the experience of withdrawal only. It shows one aspect of divinity, not the whole of it.
