Abstract

Magnificent is that Almighty who is the light of the heavens and the earth and whose light covers all places. He is before all things and superior to all things and the revealer of all things. Light means brightness, which is actually the appearance of itself; therefore, it makes everything bright and visible. For the human mind, light is understood in comparison to darkness, just as a lamp of light breaks the darkness, and the color and shape become visible. Looking at it from any angle, the sun provides not only the light of the planet earth but also its light and heat are the source of life.
The light of truth is from the nature of the Lord of existence, and it flows and shines according to His will; it passes through many veils, it becomes denser and with less light, until in this world it is in the form of sensual light that our minds perceive it to be manifest. Therefore, light has levels, and each class or realm is from which the lower layer flows. For example, we can describe the moonlight passing through a window and hitting a mirror; the mirror reflects it to the ground. The light that fell on earth can be regarded as the world, which anyone who observes it directly realizes its origin, which is the moon, but not forgetting that the moon''''s light is also sourced from the sun. There is no conceptual or mental way to imagine heavenly lights, but one must meditate on their meaning to catch fire. Our eyes can''''t even stare at the sunlight, let alone the sky''''s lights! It is therefore necessary to have another eye, which has been called by various names in the texts, depending on each individual''''s experience, such as the heart eye, the soul eye, the wisdom eye, etc., with each level considered for each of them. The light of truth that Lord will shine on our souls is the light of knowledge, which reveals everything in our status and position, both in our souls and horizons. Let''''s find out the layers of the heavens from the nature of light and the status of each human being with the value of light and know the capacities so that we can understand the concept of justice, which itself is from the nature of light. But is there a light of truth in this world? Is there a way we can follow to polish our lamp of existence into a glass reflecting the true light? Piety guides human existence towards the sublime lights that show the truths of the heavens and the earth and what is between them. By focusing on the light of truth, mystics choose obedience and only look at the world if they see divine light before, between, and after everything and take advice from every scene. Almighty shines the light of guidance, and every person or object benefits according to their capacity and ability. In this world, there is nothing except manifestations of that world of light; therefore, man must meditate on the manifested light in order to understand that corridor of truth light.
