Becoming Light

Enlighten literally means "becoming light."

When you become spiritually enlightened, you become able to perceive yourself- and all things - as Light.

Why Light? Light is the fundamental analogy for the Divine Source, and it is also as good a word there is for what you are really made of.

At the fundamental levels, matter is made up of energy organised into information. Everything in the universe really is made of Light.

When you are enlightened, Light permeates every level of your being. You become . . .


Light of Mind

You can see Light - that is, the Divine - shining through everything around you, including yourself.


Light of Heart

You become light-hearted. You don't need to take anything so seriously . . . especially yourself.


Light of Body

You lose the things that weigh on you . . . physical weight, illness, lethargy.

So when you become enlightened, you are simply aware of this level of reality - the reality of Light underlying everything.
Which is, the reality of the Divine manifest in the world.
