All God wants do to is love people.
I don't accept the reduction of my experience to psychological factors, I'm not sure I can prove that to you, you will just have to seek for yourself. God is real.

I wouldn't call that 'seeing' personally. Thanks very much for your answer.
It is called the Shekina glory. You can see it, but you feel other things. It involves you at more than one level in it. I have felt ecstasy and intense joy and nearness to God. It is real.
