The good sense of this is so obvious once it's too late.

"Visionary experience is not the same as mystical experience.
Mystical experience is beyond the realm of opposites. Visionary
experience is still within that realm. Heaven entails hell. and
'going to heaven' is no more liberating than is the descent into
horror. Heaven is merely a vantage point from which the divine
Ground can be more clearly seen than on the level of ordinary
individual experience."
