You know very well what his revelation referred to. It was to a "vision" of a light from "heaven" which blinded him, and a voice in his mind. It had nothing to do with having hobnobbed with a real person, Jesus:

ACTS

9:3
And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:

9:4
And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

9:5
And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

9:6
And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

9:7
And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.
"

Note, as well, that the men with him heard the voice, too...or did they! :-)

ACTS

22:9
And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard NOT the voice of him that spake to me.

So much for that!
