Scripture: the Pali Cannon AN 4:143

There are, O monks, these four lights. What four? The light of the moon, the light of the sun, the light of fire, and the light of wisdom. Of these four lights, the light of wisdom is supreme.


The light of wisdom, which comes to us through the spiritual sun, is the greatest of lights, not only because it gives wisdom, gnosis, but also because it is this light which nourishes our immortal soul.
