Light worker – A meditation on the meaning of the “Word” by Random

The other day it was mentioned that the term Lightworker can be perceived incorrectly.

And now, after thought, I find what I believe it to be, the meaning.

I write with analogies and metaphors, mainly because the Term light worker is both an analogy and a metaphor.

Firstly though I will give the dictionaries definition of a few words.

Analogy : parallelism ,similarity, reasoning from parallelism cases

Metaphor: application of name or descriptive term to object to which it is not literally applicable eg “he shall eat his words”

Metaphysics / al : branch of philosophy concerned with nature of being, truth, based on abstract general reasoning.

Perceive: become aware of by one of the senses; apprehend, come to understand, become aware.

Light: (this is such a broad word in the English language that it would be easier to go to the dictionary yourself and see all of its definitions)
But the term most applicable to us, although all are, is – natural agent that makes things visible.

Enlightened: instruct, inform, shed light on ; philosophical movement relying on reason and directed against tradition and prejudice. (open mind)

Now to my bit,

Some common analogical metaphors,

To shine the light- remove opaqueness and to make it clear so another can see.

By the light of day – it becomes open and obvious

Blinded by the light – to see so much detail that we cannot focus on one detail – confusion

Light is just another name for perception, as babes we could all see the full spectrum of light and then consciousness turns us colour-blind. And when we become aware that we are colour-blind then we look for the light. We find one spectrum and with exercise we see it more clearly until it is always there, it becomes second nature. And then that spectrum illuminates the one next to it until all the spectrums are seen and it becomes pure white light. Perfection.

Light is the act of perceiving, we try to understand it, then we perfect that understanding, and once that perception is fully known then it becomes part of us. It is one with us.

So what is full perception, it is knowing, it is an exacting wavelength, it’s the act of using contrasts to see amplitude and then the brightness of the true colour.

White – is the reflection of all light, when the light comes to us we reflect it and with that reflection our image also.

Black- absorbs all light it cannot contribute nor reflect it.

Analogies and metaphors are indeed funny things they create perception.

Anything can be one if you really look at it and “see” it

Poetry, Artwork, a Tree, all cryptic awaiting definition within your mind.

So this is a Lightworker.

What would be the definition of a Darkworker? Absolutely nothing, maybe “ignorance”.

This is my interpretation, you must look between the lines to find the core truth for yourselves.

And yes the name lightworker is adequate to describe us.

Kindness and Kind-ness

To all
