Is it your light that shines in the day as the sun and as the bright
lamp in the night? Let it be. Which light shines when i close my eyes?
(in mental vision) Which light illumines in my intellctual perception?
You are that supreme light that illumines the awareness of `aham’ and
I am that light. In short `that thou art’ or `ahambrahmasmi.’
I am that by the light of which the world is illumined in the day and
the night also by the lamp, beause the Brahman is the source of all
light, agni or surya. He is the light through which the indriyas
function . When the eyes are closed, there is no perception, the
eyes implying perception through all indriyas, then the mind
functions with the help of the intellect , which in its turn
functions by the light of the atman, which is beyond body, mind and
intellect and that am I, the supreme reality, Brahman.
