All-pervading substance;
light, impenetrable, yet itself pervading all;
immutable, ever present, knowing all,
caring for all, cool, detached.
Wherever I look there is this substance.
Whatever happens takes place in it.
It is like light, but it shines through light.
It is like air, but is the breath of air.
It is like space, but is the space holding space.
