Jim Carrey: I had spiritual vision

Jim Carrey fasted for four days on his spiritual quest

Jim Carrey has claimed he saw God after going on a spiritual quest in Arizona.

The Burt Wonderstone star told the Daily Mirror how he went to meet the Lakota Indians for spiritual guidance, and braved the desert heat and dangerous animals in a bid to find inner peace.

Jim, 51, revealed: "I fasted for four days, I spent time in a sweat lodge and then they came in the middle of the night with a pick-up truck and blindfolded me and drove me to the top of this sacred mountain.

"They left me in a little circle with a blanket and only a tiny knife to fight off cougars, mountain lions, rattlesnakes, scorpions and whatever else was there.

"It was so hot it felt like 150 degrees and I thought I was dying at one point. I had 12 ounces of water to last me 24 hours and I watched the mountain all day, wondering what they meant by the visions.

"Then at night I got tired of standing and I lay down on this little Indian blanket and I was really frightened. The coyotes were howling and the place was full of rattlesnakes, and I actually spoke out loud and said, 'God I'm scared, be with me'.

"And at that point the mountain range that was above me became the perfect shape of a man laying on his back beside me.

"All the fear left my body and I lay there thinking, 'This is really happening. I'm actually seeing God and I can't believe it. I'm so lucky'.

"And I wasn't scared any more and then later the moon came up and changed the shadows and the face turned and was smiling at me, and I was just in complete bliss. I was as light as a feather."
