A correspondent in America wrote: "I awoke in the middle of the night to discover the room filled with bright light. I could see all the furniture. A marvellous peace pervaded me. I said to myself, `God is that You?' and instinctively, I knew that it was. After a while I got up when the experience was fading to check its extraordinary nature and confirmed that none of the electric lamps were switched on. Since then thirteen years have passed. I have a loving husband and loving children, enough money for the basic things of life. But for some time life was not meaningful and I felt empty. I looked at my friends, so willing to accept this hollow life, but I could not. It became intolerable. Five years ago I was shown the spiritual quest of truth and this has since become my mainstay." Was there a connection between the vision of Light and the subsequent restlessness until she turned to the quest? That there is such a line, is confirmed by many other instances scattered around the world.
