Can I use Light as a meditation object for cultivating jhanas? I feel a strong sense of relief whenever I see white light. In this sermon,Ven.Waharaka Thero says that how the qualities of Aloka(light) can be used as a karmasthana. Aloka would mean transcending the loka, or Nibbana. Because of this nature of mind, light exists that has the quality to help us see the hidden or eradicate darkness. I am thinking of doing this with also using the dhamma meaning of aloka while focusing on light.
