Light?
. asked:
For the past several days and sometime in my life i’ve always wondered about heaven. everything from the name to its stories. And then something really struck me. have you ever wondered why is heaven is referred to as the light. you know “come into the light” , movies, dreams, and other things have a “light at the end of the tunnel”, well my question is, is there some meaning of this? maybe reoccuring dreams of light shining and theres always someone there means something. maybe we have the science to say that light has other identities.or other meaning to mankind. ? i don’t know but, this is really fascinating.. just go outside on a bright shiny day and stare at the sun and you’ll feel some tranquility for those few seconds.

Cause people who have died and then came back to life often say that they saw a bright light when they were dead. Sometimes people who have had brain surgery say the same thing. So were they dead for a few seconds or is it just what the brain does when the blood flow stops for a moment? [who] qman
please don’t go out on a bright sunny day and stare at the sun, it will damage your retinas!
Many religions talk about reaching enlightenment, and this is what we should all strive towards, a time when we will merge with the light and not need to reincarnate to learn any more lessons, we will be one with the source. [who] Diane
Perhaps it has to do with the idea that God is the light. On the first day of creation, God made light.
The opening of Genesis tells the biblical story of creation and how it was completed. The first verse of Genesis 1 begins with a description of how God created Heaven and Earth. The text thus begins by establishing a series of dualisms – heaven and earth, light and dark, day and night, etc. So, in the beginning of God’s creation…when the earth was without form and empty…, God said, “Let there be light”.
In the beginning, Heaven was the light and the Earth was empty and dark until God spoke and said, “Let there be light”. We associate light with God and Heaven – safety, profound peace and enlightenment – and perhaps our subconscious knows we could be going home to God when we are called by the light. [who] Scottie
