Visions In The Nighttime Mystical experience has been linked to altered states of consciousness throughout scripture, including Latter-day Saint teachings. How is an altered state measured? Does experience show that positive experiences of this type are exclusively predicated upon righteousness? What can we learn from those who have pursued these states of consciousness? How do fasting, meditation, prayer, and sleep affect our efforts to achieve two-way communication with the Infinite?
