Rooms of Eternal Light

The refuge where the soul listens to itself

You find yourself in a library that keeps spheres of light instead of books, some as small as a breath, others as wide as moons. Touch one, and knowledge reaches you without words.

Here there are no clocks measuring meaningless minutes, nor windows onto an elsewhere, because the whole world, in all its essence, seems to be contained in this space.
