The human soul can only develop its full capacities when illumined.
Light from without must call out the latent powers of the mind.
The sea-anemone is attractive only when light reaches them. In
gloom or shadow they fold themselves up on their peduncles and
look withered and repellent. In the sunshine that plays on the
waters in their pools these strange creatures open out like
blossoms expanding their petals. (Text.)
