IV

Transliteration

Na tatra sūryo bhāti na candra-tārakaṃ

nemā vidyuto bhānti kutoyam agniḥ:

tam eva bhāntam anubhāti sarvaṃ

tasya bhāsā sarvaṃ idaṃ vibhāti

Translation

“There the sun shines not, nor the moon and the stars, nor these lightnings, let alone this earthly fire.

Only when illumining Light shines, everything else shines; the self-revealing Light illumines the entire universe.”

Comment

The outer sun asks us to see and when we look around we see all darkness.

The inner sun makes us see what we eternally are: the Light Infinite.
