I have not had the type of experience you refer to.
I accept that apparently my psychology is not particularly receptive to that type of experience, sort of like some people cannot or should not be hypnotized.
I have been to Lourdes and Medjugore and saw or felt nothing other than what was physically obvious.

I don't doubt that some do have those actual experiences, though.
