In the light of another sun much brighter than this one there no darkness is ever seen as the mind of thought is clean.
When the ladder is climbed to that domain what any go there with except love is vain. Everything else may or can exist below which is only what this light does show.
There is the Radiance of Pure Being the like of which few are ever seeing. A very rare experience by actual sight is had as the mind is bewildered but the soul is glad.
Intellect and reason have been left behind as all else except to that light one is blind. Intuition or direct perception is the means whereby the mind at its own source gleans.
Any limitations and divisions there don’t exist only the effulgence of True Light does persist. Though we receive light and warmth from the stars, moon and sun all the light in the universe put together can’t ever equal That One.
Could it be That from which all of existence flows as time and space by mind’s true reflection shows and whatever seen here is the becoming of That which forever is; in tangible finite shape or form a manifestation of The Infinite is?
The Radiance of Pure Being is also the essence of everyone’s soul and so is seen after self effort and grace have performed their role. To live through all of our days in life and be ignorant of That Light isn’t what any of us have been born for in this world or given sight. ________________
