SECTION-2.

MANTRAM-1.{  Pointers  to  the  nature  of  Brahmam  and  advice  how  to  know  it. }

Discussion-2. "Bright " .......

Bright :

Consciousness  is  considered  to  be  bright  in  the  sense  that  it  is  the  light  that  illumines n for  us  our  thoughts  and  ideas.

Ordinarily  a  man  would  say  without  knowing  much  of  philosophy  that  he  can  see  the  emotions  and  ideas  rising  in  him.

If  he  could  recognize  them,  there  must  be  some  light-principle  that  should  brighten  the  things  seen.

This  Light  that  illumines,  that  is  within,  is  certainly  the  light  of  intelligence  in  the  intellect.

This  is  not  the  physical,  ordinary  light  as  known  to  the  scientists;  it  is  the  CONSCIOUSNESS,  the  LIFE-PRINCIPLE  in  the  individual.
