Es ist Mitternacht auf der Straße. Ein Mann sucht im Lichtkegel einer Straßenlaterne nach seinem Hausschlüssel. Ein Passant bietet ihm seine Hilfe an. Nach einiger Zeit erfolgloser Suche fragt er den Pechvogel:

"Wo haben Sie Ihren Schlüssel denn verloren?"

"Er ist mir vor dem Hauseingang aus der Hand gerutscht."

"Warum suchten Sie ihn dann nicht vor der Haustür?"

"Vor dem Haus ist es so finster, und hier auf der Straße ist besseres Licht."

Diese letzten Worte von Goethe wurde überliefert von seinem Arzt Carl Vogel. Umstritten sind sie deshalb, weil der Arzt im Augenblick des Todes von Goethe nicht im Sterbezimmer anwesend war.

Personal avowals

My first question when I was before the Light was
"Are you God?"

I didn’t believe in God at all. The Light is really, as I know now, the oversoul matrix of our system and the sum-total of everything we have ever been to this point. It is, itself, evolving as we are evolving, so the Light seems to know you. It knows you individually and discretely because your light is a direct part of it. I call it the Great Self. When I asked the Light "Are You God?" – and the light speaks to you in a way that you will understand – the Light said to me

"Who and what is not God?"

Interview with Mellen-Thomas Benedict, most researched US American near-death experiencer, presented by Wisdom Magazine web edition, Edie Weinstein Moser, interfaith minister and social worker, 2009

I had a major heart attack at the ripe old age of 39, and once again I encountered the White Light. [...] thinking back to my original near-death experience and the experience I had during my open heart surgery and some other things, I've since concluded that what the white light probably is, is what we would call the totality of self, or what we probably are when we're not physical. Interview with Joseph W. McMoneagle (*1946) US American remote viewer for the U.S. Army Intelligence, Stanford Research Institute (SRI), first officer recruited for the top-secret Stargate Project, author of Mind Trek, Hampton Roads Publishing Company, 1993, Remote Viewing, presented by magazine Magical Blend, interviewer Jerry Snyder, issue #52

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. Buddha [LoC 1000] (563-483 BC) Indian Avatar, teacher of enlightenment, central figure of Buddhism

What is to give light must endure burning. Viktor Frankl (1905-1997) Austrian psychiatrist, psychotherapist, neurologist, Nazi death camp survivor, meaning researcher, founder of logotherapy

The apparent solidity of the world is a delusion of the senses. Everything is made up of infinite, intelligent light. Frederick Philip Lenz, III, Ph.D. [Rama] (1950-1998) US American Buddhist spiritual teacher

Sometimes our light goes out but is blown again into flame by an encounter with another human being. Each of us owes the deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this inner light. Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) German (Alsatian) theologian, philosopher, physician, medical missionary, humanist, organist

Many spiritual people anticipate the return of White Light to the planet. They imagine that it will come in the form of a unique individual like Buddha, Jesus or Mohammed. However, from my newly acquired spirituality I see that White Light will only return to the planet when every human being recognizes every other human being as an individual frequency of the White Light. Bruce Lipton, Ph.D., US American new cellular biologist, former associate professor, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine, presaged the field of epigenetics [mechanism by which nurture controls nature], author

What light is to the outer physical world, intellect is to the inner world of consciousness. Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) German philosopher, faculty member, author

In the early 1980s, thanks to the development of a sophisticated measurement device, a team of scientists demonstrated that the cells of all living beings emit photons at a rate of up to approximately 100 units per second and per square centimeter of surface area. They also showed that DNA was the source of this photon emission. Jeremy Narby (*1959) Swiss-Canadian anthropologist, author, The Cosmic Serpent. DNA and the Origins of Knowledge, presented by mysteries.com, April 1999
Note: Biophoton research by Fritz-Albert Popp

The correlation of consciousness with masculinity culminates in the development of science, as an attempt by the masculine spirit to emancipate itself from the power of the unconscious. [...] We call this path "ascent" because we experience consciousness and the world of light as being "above" us and unconscious and darkness "below" still under the spell of the primitive symbolism which associates the upright posture of the human figure with the development of the head and the rest of the "higher" centers of consciousness. Erich Neumann (1905–1960) German psychologist, writer, Evolution of Consciousness. The Origins of the Way We Think, Simon & Schuster, 1. November 1992

The monuments prove that, quite early in the Dynastic Period, there was known and worshipped in Lower Egypt another form of the Sun-god who was called RA. Of his origin and early history nothing is known, and the meaning of his name has not yet been satisfactorily explained. It does not seem to be Egyptian. E. A. Wallis Budge (1857-1934) British egyptologist, orientalist, philologist, British Museum, author on the ancient Near East, Tutankhamen. Amenism, Atenism and Egyptian Monotheism/with Hieroglyphic Texts of Hymns to Amen and Aten, Dover Publications, 8. January 1992

A candle lighting another candle

I asked God for water, he gave me an ocean.
I asked God for a flower, he gave me a garden.
I asked God for a tree, he gave me a forest.
I asked God for a friend, he gave me YOU.
There is not enough darkness in the world
to put out the light of one candle.
A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.

Helen Roberta Ossana, US American publisher and editor of Dream Network
