If you see really bright lights, or hear really loud noises, go towards them, don't run away from anything. It's like giving someone instructions on how to handle a bear, don't run away from it. Stand up and try to make yourself look as big as possible. Don't give it the signal that it should chase you. And that's the case with the after death visions. Don't go for dark seductive lights, go only for bright lights.
Big visions are realized through small steps.

Thomas Edison had great visions (for lights, music players, movies, etc. ) but he knew they didn't count until he could make them work.

The work of the Spirit is the bringing to be of the vision of God. . . . the capacitating of persons to 'see visions' and 'dream dreams'. . . . . The birth of the Church is the beginning of the End. . . . . . The Kingdom of God as the miracle of ocular newness when 'the blind see' makes its impact on history in the creation of a visionary community. [[The tongues were]] the language of the world to come. . . Therefore in this birth of the Church, the risen and ascended Lord takes to himself a Body on earth with eyes opened by the Spirit to see the future.
