Spiritual experiences more likely in Certain Locations?


Why is it easier to have a significant spiritual experience at certain places—namely, places where other spiritual experiences have taken place?

A. Because we have more faith that it will happen! We know that it’s happened before in the same place...

That leads to the question: why do certain places have spiritual events occur there and are thus likely to have more experiences like said experiences in the future (i.e. Sacred Grove in upstate NY, Indepedence, MO, Adam-Ondi-Ahman, Garden of Gethsemene, etc.)?

In his talk, “Snow White Birds”, Elder Packer recalls what President Harold B. Lee taught him, “Revelation is more readily recognized when you’re in the place needed for the revelation.”

I want to know what you think...
