Let’s look at some of the possibilities that come with consciousness and light together.
First, light detoxifes whatever it touches. It takes the poison out of emotion, memories, attitudes, inherited beliefs, and yes, some doctors even use UV light to detoxify rattlesnake poison. Laser light applied to the blood is another example of the power of light to detoxify. As light detoxifes emotional and mental poisons, it enables us to come back to the simple goodness of a relaxed heart.
When we live in a less toxic atmosphere, there is less fear, and a return to a sense of goodness.

Beyond Seriousness...Seriously!
A second resource that opens through light is non-seriousness. Light is fundamentally non-serious. It doesn’t know the heaviness of chronic suffering or the density of repressed emotion.

Photons go in and out of existence so many times in a single minute that they forgot what it’s like to be afraid of death. Or anything else, for that matter. “Am I a wave or a particle? What if nobody sees me? I have been journeying millions of light years....will they like me when I get there?” Since it travels at the speed of light, it doesn’t even worry about getting old. Just
