To help you find your path through life. so that you can brag to all your friends that you are visionified and stuff.

The purpose of going on a vision quest is to learn who you are. One does not have to go far, but only remove yourself from others for a while. Then one must meditate by clearing the mind. This is more difficult than it may seem. Oftentimes, the answers one is seeking cannot be found on the web, in a book, or by asking a friend. Answers pertaining to one's own existence can only be found by seeking the answers within oneself.
