A bar of steel,laid on a bench 56%f,feels to the touch fairly cool,now light a blow torch and apply it to the bar of steel,slowly as the bar heats up,it will
begin to glow red,continue with this torch and the bar will start to become
white,and give of a glow!Now we all know this to be so,and true,as the atoms within the steel bar become excited,they move more rapidly and give
of light.The torch being the stimulus,that causes the excitement,now if it
were possible to weigh the bar before and after the applied heat,the bar would weigh less afterwards,as light had escaped from it!So far so good,I
think!Now here is where the problem starts,I maintain that there is an
almost exact parallel between the bar of steel,that is excited by a blow-
-torch,and a human being,in an excited state of spiritual bliss,that will if
left in that state enough,begin to emit light,that at first can onlybe seen by
those who are sensitive,but if persisted with,the light emitted by the one in
the blissful state will be visible by all,as the atoms with get more excited the
one begins to glow,as though an inner dynamo was powering the appear-
ance?
