(1) Rupert Spira-Wise:

"It is the light of our own self, aware presence (the Knowledge I Am), that shines in the knowing or experiencing of any object." 

"...And this ‘knowing’ is our self, aware presence. In other words, all that is ever experienced is our self knowing itself, awareness aware of awareness..."

"...If we forget about the light of our own being, we think that we see a physical object, but as soon as we remember our self—as soon as our self is no longer seemingly veiled by the ‘I-the-separate-inside-self’ thought—we realize that it is only a modulation of the light of our being that is really known, that knows its own ever-present self, just as, relatively speaking, in trees, hills and mountains we see only the modulated light of the sun..."

(2) Sri Nisargadatta-Wise:

"Abidance in the knowledge "I Am" (Knowingness, Aware Presence or Self) which does not identify with the body-mind is spiritual light..."

"Self-love and "I Am" without words are the same."

-- Sri Nisargadatta
