| has gloss | eng: Definition Defined narrowly, a visionary is one who purportedly experiences a vision or apparition connected to the supernatural. At times this involves seeing into the future. The visionary state is achieved via meditation, drugs, lucid dreams, day dreams, or art. One example is Hildegard of Bingen, a 12th century artist/visionary and Catholic saint. Other visionaries in religion are Mohammed (who had a vision of and communed with the Angel Gabriel), St. Bernadette (who had a vision of and communed with the Blessed Virgin), and Joseph Smith (who had a vision of and communed with the Angel Moroni). |

| has gloss | ces: Vizionář je člověk, který dokázal nebo dokáže přijít s myšlenkami, které zřetelně, pravdivě a přesně předpovídají, odhadují nebo využívají stav něčeho, například společnosti nebo technologií, v budoucnosti. Předpovědi nebo odhady lidí, kteří jsou později označeni jako vizioináři, bývají často velkou předností v obchodu. Ať už jsou, nebo nejsou jejich návrhy realizovány, mívá to velký dopad na celou společnost, když situace, kterou předpovídali, nastane. Stává se také, že jejich myšlenky „předběhnou dobu“, tedy že jejich uskutečnění je v jejich době nereálné, nebo se naopak realizují, ale jsou neúspěšné, protože pro jejich úspěch ještě nenastala vhodná doba a okolnosti. |
