Peer into the Light

The Zohar teaches that each flame from a candle has several parts. There is the radiant white light above and a dark blue or black light below. The black flame is attached to the wick and its nature is to consume. The white flame does not consume; it is pure and benign. There is a third light in the candle flame, above the white light rests a concealed light, surrounding it as an aura.
Darkness is with in the light for which most people is threatening and distractive. But if you can live by sacrifice, even the dark core can be nurturing." -Nehemiah Polen

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
