The visions that I saw I beheld neither in sleep
nor dreaming nor in madness nor with my bodily eyes nor ears
nor in hidden places.
I saw them in full view and according to God's will,
when I was wakeful and alert
with the eyes of the spirit and the inward ears.
And how this was brought about is indeed hard
for human flesh to search out -- Hildegard of Bingen
