Awareness Is Already Light

Sit comfortably, eyes open or closed, either is fine. The earlier practices in this section asked you to picture light in this place or that. Today, picture nothing. Simply notice that whatever is being known right now, the room, the breath, the sound of a fan, is being known clearly, vividly, as if lit. That clarity itself is the light the older texts speak of. It does not arrive, and it does not leave. It is already on, behind every thing you see. Sit with that quiet, unborrowed brightness.
