“We awaken by asking the right questions. We awaken when we see knowledge being spread that goes against our own personal experiences. We awaken when we see popular opinion being wrong but accepted as being right, and what is right being pushed as being wrong. We awaken by seeking answers in corners that are not popular. And we awaken by turning on the light inside when everything outside feels dark.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“We Orientals tend to seek our satisfactions in whatever surroundings we happen to find ourselves, to content ourselves with things as they are; and so darkness causes us no discontent, we resign ourselves to it as inevitable. If light is scarce, then light is scarce; we will immerse ourselves in the darkness and there discover its own particular beauty. But the progressive Westerner is determined always to better his lot. From candle to oil lamp, oil lamp to gaslight, gaslight to electric light—his quest for a brighter light never ceases, he spares no pains to eradicate even the minutest shadow.”
― Junichirō Tanizaki, In Praise of Shadows

― Tamara Rendell, Mystical Tides

“Feeling guilt dims our light. Instead of dimming our light to make others feel more comfortable, we could just continue to shine and foster the rise of the vibrations of those around us.

Being Happy and Feeling Good does not mean you have no compassion for the misery of those around you. It simply means you won’t dim your light to make them feel comfortable – instead, you’re going to help light the way.

At first, your light may be a bit too bright for others and it may hurt their eyes, yet it’s far better to shine rather than to hide your light. When you hide your light for too long, it extinguishes and you slip right back into darkness…unable to find your way until someone ‘shiny’ comes along to light your way and help you to find the light you still possess within, your Soul’s Magnificence.”
― Alaric Hutchinson, Living Peace: Essential Teachings For Enriching Life

“Let's say a person says:
"I am the light. It's my desire to be a light unto the world: To shine a light wherever I go. To be the light among people who know me." - and so forth.

But if we decide that "I am the light" but we find ourselves in a place where there is nothing but the light...
Let's say that we're a candle in the Sun,
Well we're there all right, along with the 50 billion cajillion other candles, and we can know that we are the light, but we can't experience ourselves being the light.

And if it's our hearts desire to experience ourselves,
not just to know conceptually, but to experience ourselves, experientially -
if that's our heart's desire, we're going to actually call forth, or at least search around to see if anywhere in the contextual field, there is this thing called the darkness.
And if we find the darkness we will move toward it or even co-create it with those around us, who have the same desire to be the light, in order that we may experience ourselves as the light amidst the darkness.”
― Neale Donald Walsch

“On Earth, there is a prevailing belief that Light opposes Dark, and that Light represents Love, while being in The Dark means being devoid of Love.
We are here to expand your understanding and to embrace the reality that Light is the presence or manifestation of consciousness. Darkness, on the other hand, is the space that allows the manifestation of consciousness to occur. It allows for the experience for there to be oneself and the existence of “other.” It is the necessary space needed for you to experience life on Earth as you know it.”
― Gwen Juvenal, "The Seed" Journal: A Space for Recording Your Soul Experiences and Expansive Journeys

“Nowadays, the darkness is brighter than the light.”
