"The sun illumines everything in day time and the bright lamp in the night. But which light shines when we close our eyes? (in mental vision). Which light illumines our intellctual perception?
We are that self-effulgent 'BRAHMAN', the supreme light of self-awareness (I-AM ness) which illumines everything. We are that light by which the world is illumined, day and night, because the Brahman is the source of all light, agni or surya. 'AWARENESS' is the light through which the indriyas ( EYES, EARS NOSE, TONGUE and SKIN) function . When the eyes are closed, there is no perception, the eyes implying perception through all indriyas (Sense organs). Then the mind functions with the help of 'Intellect' , which in its turn functions by the light of 'Atman' (SELF), which is beyond the body- mind- intellect complex and the five sense organs and that we are, the supreme reality, Brahman ( 'TRUTH'-'BEING'-'EXISTENCE'-'CONSCIOUSNESS' and 'BLISS').
