A Disc Of Shining Light

from The Book of the Third Prophet chapter 17, verses 11-13 The Angel Valadriel descended from Heaven to Earth, and she lived among human beings as one of them. She brought into their lives the Shining Light. The angel's name was Valadriel, and she chose for herself an uncommon destiny. From her earliest awakening, she saw shining in the highest heaven a disc of purest light, burning, brightening, glistening, glowing, growing larger and spinning, casting divine light over all of the angels. Their wings folded, their faces radiant, the angels were transfixed in joy, and joy spread across the fields of heaven, flooding the angels and also the redeemed souls with measureless grace... Valadriel alone was sad: she closed her eyes and beat her wings fiercely, striving to reach the source of the LIGHT... Valadriel flew toward immense sheets of cosmic LIGHT, free, untrammeled, unabsorbed. She flew on a steep incline of the time-space energy field. Everywhere, all through time, galaxies were forming, suns igniting, systems colliding and making super-systems. Valadriel kept flying, despite the paralyzing awe, and the small doubt that was growing larger in her But her desire was already known to GOD, GOD had already granted her wish: The angel Valadriel and a new Disc of Shining Light! The Shining Disc dimmed as it descended, descending from the highest heaven to the higher heaven it dimmed to starlight, from there to the middle heaven it dimmed to sunlight, from there to the lower heaven it dimmed to moonlight, from there to the lowest heaven it dimmed to daylight. from there to Earth it dimmed to lightless night, and there, there to a darkness alternating with daylight where Valadriel resides, in natural realm that is bereft of GOD'S presence as angels and saints know it. She spins the disc and she feels human sorrow, the light begins to glow and she feels the weight of human sin, the light shines feebly and she feels what humans call hope. slowly, slowly, the disc casts divine grace among human beings, steadily a joy spreads across the fields of the earth.
