" The light that shines through the windows of the eyes and ears—if those windows did not exist, the light would not stop. It would find other windows to shine through.

If you bring a lamp before the sun, do you say, "I see the sun by means of this lamp"? God forbid! If you did not bring the lamp, the sun would still shine. What need is there for a lamp? "
