The Light That Reveals All at Once

Sit quietly, eyes closed. Recall a moment of lightning, perhaps from the monsoon, when a single flash lit the whole night sky and every tree, every rooftop, every gali stood out for an instant before darkness returned. Hold that quality in mind, not the storm, just the flash. Awareness has the same nature, capable of illumining the entire field of experience in a single moment, without effort. Do not try to make the flash happen. Just sit with the felt-sense that such illumination is possible, and is in fact what is happening, more quietly, every moment.
