"Just paranoid vision"????

>From my point of veiw, it is unproductive to focus on whether a vision is 
"really there,"  which is related to the need to nail down from which mind 
the vision is emanating.  These are minor issues.  I think it's much more 
important to understand what is the message, the content of the vision.  Let 
go and fly.
