          Normally when we hear words such as, "meditate upon Light," "seek the Light," or "Enlightenment," we feel or believe that Light will shine all of a sudden like a halo around our head. While this may be true, it is actually a very gross conception. The ultimate Light is that which awakens you permanently and eternally. Do not conceive or try to formulate the indescribable, the formless and nameless. It is impossible. Enlightenment is something that you somehow know is there but you do not know how to find it; therefore you are seeking. We are naming it Light, that which shines but has no shadow, no dross, no resistance and no darkness. In that shoreless ocean of Light, in that oneness, you are instantly everywhere. Light is not only within us--it is seeking Itself through us. 

 

          Let us go into the more subtle meaning. When you feel, "I am meditating upon the Light that is pervading, that is beyond mind and senses, that is beyond gross conceptions," you are still meditating upon Light objectively. You are still missing the point. The clearest language would be, "I am the Light." Prophets say, "I am the light, I am the way, I am the truth," because there is no other objective truth. You are Light. Meditate upon that. 

 

          All your pain, confusion, lethargy, negligence and carelessness will leave you. It is this genuine restlessness of seeking that creates the friction into which the Light shines. Each pore, each thought, movement and vibration within your body-mind complex is a form of Light. The gross light is part of that Light. It is because of that Light that you are talking, walking, hearing, eating and enjoying life. Light is the source that makes life possible.

 

          Love God and everything else will be taken care of. A sincerely devoted disciple who waits upon his Master is becoming like him. Likewise when you meditate upon Light you are becoming Light. You are becoming Enlightened. There is no higher path to knowing the mysteries of the universe. Let us avoid the sophistication of the mind. Just be simple like a child and cry for Light. What is childlike simplicity? Children are innocent, natural.

 

          Meditation upon Light has no sophistication. It is virgin wilderness. Long before cultures came into being there was the Source. That is the Light. When you have direct love of God then you will realize. As long as you are explaining the Light, trying to understand the Light or describing the Light, you are missing it. When you love God, you do not try to describe or explain Him. You just love Him. Then your brain is awakened. Your consciousness will flow in such a way that all of a sudden Light will shine. If you ever successfully meditate in this way you will see the light shine from your own body. You are the embodiment of Light.

 

          And one very beautiful point about meditating upon Light: it is never boring. Light is the source from which joy comes. Millions of people have no joy, only because light is not awakened in them. If you see a very joyful person, even if the joy is short-lived, you will see light beaming from that person. It is a reflection, a glimpse that joy and light are together. Our ultimate cry, our inner thrust, is always that the Light shine.
