The sun is called 'the light of the universe'

"The sun is called 'the light of the universe', for it lights up

the world, and it is thanks to its light that we can see. When

the sun is not shining on us, we need other sources of light:

electric light-bulbs, candles, torches, lighthouses, and so on.

Objects, therefore, are only visible to the extent that a light

is shining on them and lighting them up; this law applies to the

physical world and to the spiritual world, too. But in the

spiritual world, there is no light to switch on, the way we

switch on the stair light or bedroom light, and if we want to

see, it is up to us to shine a light. The reason why so few

people are able to see on the spiritual plane is that they wait

for objects to be lit up, when it is up to them to shine the rays

that will allow them to see. "
