A vision is a turning point taken at the time when a child becomes an adult. (Puberty) A vision quest can be taken anytime that one is confused or looking for answers. Here is where one discovers their missions in life. It also is a form of purification. A vision could includes long walks in nature, fasting, sleep depravation or being closed in a small room. Sometimes thoughts of craziness set in and to others it doesn't. A vision is when the birds, animals speak to you. .
Mother Earth or the Great Spirit speaks to you giving you a lead in what direction to go or you find your Indian Name. When you accomplish great challenges an Indian Chief or Shaman will give you a Tribal Name.
Don't Deny the precious gift of life.
