Illuminism is a psychotic state of exaltation in which one has hallucinations or delusions of communication with supernatural or exalted beings. Psychotic refers to a mental disorder characterized by an impaired ability to understand reality. A hallucination is a strong sensory perception that one has of an object or event while awake, when no such object or event exists. A delusion is a persistent false belief that is strongly held despite clear evidence that the belief is actually false.
