I wrote above “The eye, for example, comes in contact with photons.”

But you, Lal, said: “No. The photons (light) just help in capturing an image of the tree by the eyes. Then the eyes pass that captured image to the brain. The brain processes that information and passes it along to the cakku pasada in the mental body.”

What is wrong in my sentence? The physical eye receives photons from the tree, or not?

Also photons are made of the great elements, thus they are not vanna rupa but a mixture of apo, tejo, vayo, patavi, correct?
