[QUOTE="Ambarsaria, post: 176405, member: 14194"] It is instructive to note the importance of reference to light in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. In conventional spiritual literature one comes across references to divine light as well. There appears direction of the pairing between light in each and every part of creation and the divine light (creator). Many times pairing is shown to indicate nearness, there is equality or sameness indicated and it is also mentioned as source and the final destination that is all light universal. I list couple of illustrative tuks/lines with reference to full shabads. The numbers represent how often the words appear in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji per Dr. Thind's tabulation files. What great contributions from Dr. Thind.
