THE SCIENCE OF LIGHT


Light is everywhere in the universe. It carries information from the inner and outer worlds yet light is a perplexing phenomenon when we try to understand it. Many scientists have spent their lifetime trying to develop consistent physical, biological, chemical and mathematical explanations for light only to realize and conclude that light has no parts, extension, form nor can it be subdivided. The existence of light can only begin or end all at once through its creation or through its destruction. Light has no openings through which anything may enter or exit. Still light needs to have some qualities, otherwise it would not exist. Therefore, if light did not differ at all in its qualities, there would be no means of perceiving light. These variations must involve an intricacy in there composition since every change takes place by levels or degrees. There must be something which changes and something which remains unchanged. Light must have a variety of conditions and relations within itself even though it has no parts.

All light has a certain perfection whether we accept this fact or not. In any state, light can recover for light is always something more. If light is more and we are conscious of it, then we have become aware of its perfection through our rational human senses even if the reasons cannot be completely known by us.

Every aspect of light by its very nature follows its own laws, making light the ultimate truth. When light is present, knowledge and wisdom are revealed in proportion to its abundance or accepted degree of its perfection. This connection, relationship or adaptation of light reveals the living universe and the greatest possible infinity it represents.

Thus light represents the whole universe and its core. This core being all the universe expressed through its interconnection with all matter and its assembly. Therefore everything could be viewed as an eternal creation by the cause of nature, allowing this agent of nature to be expressed through its prevailing light.

Therefore our reasoning or reality is able to include within our concept of light as being something more, something many describe as the cosmic flame of life, the primal stuff of creation, where there is never a separation from the light.

The only common element of both the outer world and the inner world we live in is light which is more fundamental than space, time or matter. We see light but we never know light directly. The light that hits our eyes is known only through the energy it releases. This energy is translated into a visual image within our minds and that image seems to be composed of light but that light is only a quality of our minds. We never know the light itself. Light underlies every process in every present moment. Any exchange of energy between any two atoms in the universe involves the exchange of photons. Every interaction in the material world is determined by light. In this way, light penetrates and interconnects the known universe. Physical light has no mass, and is not part of the material world; the same is true of consciousness. Without light as the source there would be no experience.
