is a scientific name for god

God is a poetic name for light

But they are really synonymous.

We are born of light, we are made of light.

The whole existence consists of light

And nothing else.

Except for light all is unreal.

To know it is to be transformed

That comes out of meditation.

Life is full of divine glory

But we are unconscious.

We are so deeply asleep

That we go on missing the glory of it.

It is the most perfect existence possible,

The most beautiful, the most magnificent.
